Who We Are

Our story

OtterIQ was founded with one purpose: to help veterinary practices build exceptional teams without the stress, time commitment, and uncertainty of traditional recruiting.

​

After 20 years in the animal health industry, we have grown to understand that finding the right people is one of the biggest challenges facing veterinary medicine today. Practice owners and hospital leaders are balancing patient care, team management, and business operations, leaving little time to source, screen, and recruit top talent. That's where we come in.

More than recruiters, we are long-term workforce partners committed to helping veterinary practices attract, hire, and retain the talent needed to grow. Every search is driven by integrity, communication, and a deep understanding of the veterinary profession because we believe that stronger teams create stronger practices, better patient care, and healthier communities.

​

At OtterIQ, we're not just filling positions—we're helping build the future of veterinary medicine, one great hire at a time.
