Overview
Roo is a first-of-its-kind online veterinary relief service platform that gives veterinarians, vet techs and hospitals complete control over where and how they work. We at Roo see ourselves as more than just a vet recruitment agency. We saw veterinary clinics whose clients' needs outpaced their ability to fulfill them, and we saw veterinarians and vet techs working themselves to the bone at the mercy of everyone else's demands.
