Are you tired of working late? Tired of long commutes in rush hour traffic? I sure was! Born and raised in Toronto, after graduation I worked in Toronto, Guelph and surrounding areas. I was leaving earlier and earlier each day as the traffic was so unpredictable; and getting home later each day as well. Making the move to Minden was the best decision I ever made! I now enjoy my morning and evening commutes as a little “me time” with the picturesque scenery outside my window. Imagine being home in time for dinner with your family or the ability to get out for a hike or a swim before the sun goes down. Working in Minden is truly the definition of LIFE-work balance.
Minden Animal Hospital is looking to expand our team with a part-time or full-time small animal veterinarian and a full-time client care coordinator. Please see below for more information on our clinic & the beautiful Haliburton Highlands!

Testimonial:
“I have spent the past 5 years employed full time at the Minden Animal Hospital. Throughout this time the clinic has been steadily growing and thriving. It is a fast paced clinic where we see a wide variety of cases, this helps to keep me challenged and engaged. There is a strong community feel so we are able to get to know our clients and their pets on a more personal level while providing them with a high level of care. The clinic has recently moved to a new facility which has allowed us to upgrade our equipment and services allowing for more advanced and thorough work up of cases. The work environment is friendly and professional with a great team of support staff. I enjoy working at Minden Animal Hospital because it keeps me stimulated, allows me to expand my skills and knowledge and to keep up with current medicine and techniques.” – Dr. Kate Hill
