Small Animal Vet – Donegal (With Large Animal OOH Rota)
Work in one of the most breathtaking parts of Ireland, combining small animal practice with shared OOH responsibilities.

We’re working with a multi-vet practice based in beautiful Donegal, right along the Wild Atlantic Way—a location recently named National Geographic’s “Coolest Place on the Planet”. They’re now looking to welcome a Small Animal Vet to their supportive and experienced team.

While the role is focused on small animal work during regular hours, you’ll be included in the large animal out-of-hours rota, offering the best of both worlds for someone keen to keep their mixed skills ticking over without a full mixed caseload.

This 7-vet, 5-nurse team covers South Donegal and North Sligo, with a strong reputation in the community and a well-equipped hospital setting.

Why this role might suit you:

  • Focus on small animal work day-to-day

  • Join the OOH large animal rota with the support of an experienced mixed team

  • Excellent mentorship and team collaboration

  • Flexible to suit varying levels of experience

  • Located in a truly stunning part of Ireland, with beaches, mountains, and a rich local culture at your doorstep

Whether you’re a vet who enjoys their SA work but wants to keep a toe in the mixed world, or you’re simply after a role with flexibility and lifestyle, this could be a great fit.
