What Does a Relief Veterinarian Do?

A Relief Veterinarian, sometimes referred to as a locum tenens vet, is a freelance professional who steps in to care for pets when regular veterinarians are unavailable due to illness, vacations, or other absences—similar to how substitute teachers work in education.

This essential role ensures that animal clinics can maintain high standards of care for pets and their owners, even when their regular staff need to take time off, promoting a healthy work-life balance for everyone. During peak periods, relief vets are invaluable in helping clinics manage their workload and prevent staff burnout.
