If you’re searching for veterinary jobs in Salt Lake City, UT, WAG Veterinary Emergency & Specialty Hospital is building a team for people who want to practice medicine in a more open, collaborative, and supportive way.

WAG is a locally and independently owned emergency and specialty hospital created by veterinary professionals who wanted better for patients, clients, and the people doing the work. Our owners work on the floor, our nurses are valued as essential patient care leaders, and our culture is shaped by transparency, kindness, collaboration, and a deep respect for medicine done well.

Here, you are not just filling a role. You are helping build an animal hospital where pets receive advanced care, families stay informed, and every team member has a voice in the way care is delivered.

What WAG Offers

WAG was created to be a place where talented veterinary professionals can do meaningful work without losing the parts of themselves that made them love this field in the first place.

As a 24/7 emergency and specialty hospital, we offer the chance to work alongside skilled doctors, nurses, and support team members in a setting built for advanced medicine and clear communication. Our hospital will provide emergency care, surgery, internal medicine, critical care, interventional radiology, and advanced imaging for dogs and cats in Salt Lake City and beyond.

A Local, Independent Hospital

WAG is owned by people who work inside the hospital and live in the community. That means leadership is present, accessible, and connected to the daily reality of patient care.

A Team That Values Nurses

We use the term nurses because we believe it better reflects the level of care, training, and responsibility our veterinary nursing team brings to each patient. Our nurses are central to monitoring, treatments, comfort, communication, and recovery.

Advanced Medicine and Specialty Capabilities

Our team has access to advanced tools and services, including MRI, CT, ultrasound, X-rays, endoscopy, fluoroscopy, C-arm imaging, oxygen support, ventilator capabilities, multiple operating rooms, and an ICU designed for seriously ill pets.

A Culture Built Around the WAG PACK

Our core values guide the way we work: patient-centered care, ambition, collaboration, and kindness. We want team members who care about excellent medicine and also care about how people are treated along the way.

Transparent Communication

We believe clients should know what is happening with their pets, and team members should feel informed, included, and respected. Open communication is part of how we care for patients and how we support each other.
