What is Roo?

Roo is a veterinary staffing marketplace that connects animal hospitals with a large network of relief veterinarians and technicians. Hospitals post open shifts, professionals browse and book work that fits their schedule, and Roo coordinates the logistics in one platform. The company highlights national scale, with tens of thousands of professionals and millions of relief hours fulfilled, and offers mobile apps for on the go booking. Roo also runs Roo Uni, a free externship network that links veterinary students with hands-on opportunities across hundreds of hospitals. For professionals, getting started is simple. Create a profile, browse nearby shifts, choose where and when to work, then rate the experience after the shift. Payments are sent by direct deposit in as little as two business days. Roo states there are no membership fees, no minimum shift requirements, and no non-competes, which gives vets and techs control over their income and work life balance. For hospitals, Roo is designed to make coverage reliable and fast. Post half or full day shifts to match budget and patient flow, offer flexible start or end times, boost compensation to fill urgent needs, and let Roo handle paperwork and payments. Beyond day to day relief, hospitals can trial candidates through shifts, convert strong fits to part time or full time roles, and tap the externship pipeline for early talent. Enterprise support is available for groups that manage staffing across multiple locations. Bottom line, Roo helps hospitals maintain continuity of care and reduce burnout with flexible, on demand staffing, and it helps veterinary professionals find well matched work with fast, predictable pay. The externship network adds a training and hiring layer that can strengthen future recruiting.
