Want to work in a hospital where you can practice top-tier medicine without the burnout?
At St. Charles Animal Hospital, we’ve spent 46 years building a trusted, high-performing practice rooted in quality care and strong relationships—with pets, clients, and each other.
Whether you’re a new grad seeking structured mentorship or an experienced DVM ready to lead, we’d love to welcome you to our close-knit, tech-forward team.
What Makes Us Stand Out
Human-Grade Equipment, AAHA-Accredited Care
In-house lab, digital/dental x-ray, Olympus Color Video Endoscope, ultrasound, laser therapy, and advanced surgical tools
Two dedicated surgery days per week (optional)
30-minute appointments and a 2:1 tech-to-DVM ratio with skilled LVTs by your side
Growth-Driven Culture
Monthly CE with DC Academy (optional, but our team loves it!)
Personalized mentorship, leadership development, and even Chief of Staff training
Opportunity to revive exotic pet care—we’ve got the history and demand for it
Stability + Community
3 DVMs (tenure: 12–16 years), including a board-certified Chief of Staff (ABVP, 51 years in practice!)
Staff holiday parties, crab feasts, team outings—we genuinely like each other
Associate or Leadership Path—You Choose
Whether you're:
A new graduate looking to grow in a nurturing, structured environment
An experienced doctor ready to step into leadership with guidance from our longtime Chief of Staff
We’ll tailor your experience to match your goals.
