Job description
Overview
Work with a team that feels like family — and never work weekends again. At Kings Row Pet Hospital , we believe in meaningful work, real time off, and the kind of culture that makes you want to stay. We’re a close-knit, long-standing group of veterinarians and support staff who genuinely enjoy working together. Our culture is built on mutual respect, laughter, and trust — and our schedule reflects what we value most: life outside of work. Located in the heart of Reno, our hospital offers the best of both worlds: access to the mountains and trails of Tahoe, and a vibrant urban scene full of craft dining, culture, and energy. Whether you’re catching a concert downtown or hiking on your day off, you’ll feel at home here.
The Opportunity
We’re looking for a full-time Associate Veterinarian to join our established, family-led small animal and exotic practice in beautiful Reno, NV. Whether you’re experienced with exotics or just eager to learn, this is an ideal role for someone who values connection, consistency, and clinical variety — without compromising work-life balance.
The Role Is Ideal For Someone Who
Wants consistent weekends off (we’re closed Saturdays and Sundays — always!)
Enjoys working alongside colleagues they trust and respect
Is curious about or passionate about exotic medicine
Loves being part of a stable, family-style hospital culture
Wants time to live, not just work — with a 4-day workweek and manageable pace
Our Resources & Culture
Family-owned + NVA-supported: enjoy both local leadership and nationwide resources
Founded and led by Dr. Mark Ditsworth, known throughout Reno for his expertise in avian and exotic medicine
Strong para support so you can focus on medicine, not busywork
Full in-house lab and digital radiology
Avimark practice management software
Long-tenured team that supports mentorship and collaboration
High caseload demand = room for growth
We take our work seriously — but not ourselves
The Lifestyle
Reno isn’t just “The Biggest Little City in the World” — it’s a gateway to Tahoe, a thriving outdoorsy community, and a hidden gem for anyone who wants affordability, adventure, and balance.
Weekend-ready with world-class skiing, hiking, biking, and fishing nearby
Foodie-friendly with craft breweries, farm-to-table dining, and a growing restaurant scene
Arts, music, and festivals year-round
No state income tax and a lower cost of living than many major metros
What You’ll Get
Base salary of $110,000–$120,000 (new grads)
$130,000–$150,000 (experienced DVMs)
21% production bonus, paid monthly
