the cost of being a relief vet in 2024 💸

from licensing fees to CE, health insurance, and travel expenses — every relief veterinarian knows the hidden costs add up fast. so here’s a breakdown of what i paid out of pocket last year to keep doing what i love (this total would actually be $810 higher, but thankfully my VIN membership fee is waived due to my social media work for them). relief work gives me freedom and flexibility, but it also comes with responsibilities most people don’t see. if you’re considering going relief full time, make sure you’re factoring in ALL the expenses! #vetmed #vetlife #vetschool #prevet #vetstudent #veterinarian #veterinarymedicine #vetstudentlife #prevetmajor #prevetstudent #futuredvm #futurevet #veterinarystudent #vetschoollife #vetnurse #vettech #vettechlife #vettechstudent
