CARA VETERINARY PILLARS

Put pets first. Our first priority is always with the health, happiness, and comfort of our patients. We have designed the Cara experience with the animal perspective in mind. And our care advice is based only on what is best for the pet.

Trust the parent. We believe that caring for an animal is a partnership built on mutual trust and humility. We trust parents to make the right decisions for themselves and their pets and invite them to actively participate in care alongside us. 

Authentically human. Caring for a pet involves the full spectrum of emotions, from joy to grief. We must lean into openness, empathy, and compassionate listening. We know when to be fun, and when to be serious. At all times, we foster supportive, positive, and authentically human hospital culture.

Good neighbors. Although our business is growing, we retain the attitude and spirit of a neighborhood vet. We welcome people in. We get to know our clients' families and are proud to play an active role in our local communities.

Shake things up. We are always looking for a better way. In an industry that hasn't seen a lot of innovation, we are experimenting with new ways of delivering care, delighting customers, providing unexpectedly human (and animal) touches, and infusing out hospitals with fresh ideas.

What We’re Looking For

It’s important to us that members of our medical team be as savvy about the human animal as they are about non-human animals—so we’re seeking an experienced professional who:

• Enjoys educating and connecting with people
• Communicates effectively
• Will advocate for staff and patients
• Has excellent medical & diagnostic skills and is committed to personalized care
• Is reliable and trustworthy
• Shows adaptability and resilience
• Is comfortable working independently, including on weekends and on short notice
