Careers At Tidewater Veterinary Hospital

At Tidewater Veterinary Hospital, we believe that good veterinary care comes from good people  and we’re always looking for the right folks to join our growing family. For over 65 years, we’ve been more than just a veterinary practice and have grown into one of the largest mixed-animal practices in Maryland. We’ve done it by staying true to our roots: treating animals like family, supporting each other like neighbors, and never forgetting that behind every appointment is a story that matters. 

Here in Charlotte Hall, we’ve built something rare: a workplace where you can pursue meaningful work while surrounded by people who genuinely care about your success, your well-being, and your dreams. We are proud to have a team of 44 dedicated souls who show up every day ready to make a difference, one animal at a time.

About Tidewater Veterinary Hospital


WHO WE ARE

At our heart, we’re neighbors taking care of neighbors. Since 1958, we’ve grown organically by staying true to the values that brought us here: compassion, integrity, and the belief that good veterinary care takes time, patience, and genuine human connection.

Our days are filled with purpose. We care for beloved family pets who sleep on children’s beds, working horses whose strength supports farming families, dairy cows whose health affects entire operations, and rescue animals getting their first taste of kindness. Each appointment is a story, each patient a privilege, and each family a reminder of why we chose this calling.

What makes our culture special isn’t found in any handbook. It’s in the way we instinctively support each other during difficult cases, celebrate together when an animal recovers against all odds, and show up for one another during life’s challenges. We believe in humble hearts, open communication, and the kind of teamwork that happens naturally when people share a common purpose.

We care for a diverse community: multi-generation farm families, military families from the local base, young 4-H participants, and elderly neighbors whose pets mean everything to them. Each relationship is sacred to us, and we’re honored to be part of their stories.

Caring for animals starts with caring for each other. That’s why we offer benefits that support both your career and your life beyond the clinic.
