We are the Rouse Hill Family Vets Wolfpack.

We are busy making a difference when it matters the most. We are looking to balance the emotional and physical well-being of our patients, our clients, and our team. We don’t always get it right but we do learn from our mistakes.

We have created the culture that we always wanted. A culture where being overworked is not revered. A culture that understands you need time to build relationships with clients and problem solve your cases. A culture where 30-minute consults are the norm. A culture where our lifestyle is important and your family matters.

Rouse Hill Family Vets is a veterinary hospital located in Sydney’s West focusing on changing the industry for the better. We consist of 2 vets and multiple support staff. Read more about our team here.

We are a forever-growing wolf pack, if you think you would make a good addition to our pack please apply below.
