Frequently Asked Questions

Do hospitals need to post a minimum number of shifts?

NO! We want you to have the flexibility to use Roo as much or as little as you like so there is no minimum number of shifts you’re required to post. You’re free to use Roo whenever you need coverage, and there are no monthly membership fees or other costs. You’ll only pay for shifts you confirm.

How much does it cost to sign up for Roo?

Roo is completely free to join and there are no monthly fees. You’ll only pay for shifts you confirm. It’s free to post as many shifts as you’d like, and you can freely remove those shifts until a shift is confirmed. Even then, our cancellation policies are flexible.

We know your bottom line is important, and we want to make Roo an affordable tool for your hospital.

Can I hire a Relief Vet or Tech full-time?

YES! This is encouraged. We welcome the opportunity for Roo Vets and Techs to transition to a full or part-time role at your hospital with support from our Career Pathways Team, especially if you already had great experiences working together.

How are Roo's relief vets and techs screened? What are their qualifications?

Roo is devoted to providing veterinary relief staff of the highest quality that you can depend on to provide exceptional care.

All our relief professionals are fully licensed in the state(s) in which they fulfill shifts, and we review their qualifications during our onboarding process and conduct background checks. The work history and experience of all our professionals will be available for your review in their profiles.

Additionally, if you need veterinarians who are DEA registered, you can make this a requirement when you post a shift so you can be certain you're getting the qualified support you need.

Can I require a DEA license for a Roo Relief Vet?

YES! You can make having a DEA license a requirement when creating a new shift. When you select the option “DEA License Required,” only Vets with DEA Registration will be able to view and request your shift.

Can I require a Fear Free certifications?

YES! We have teamed with Fear Free to match Fear Free Certified Hospitals with Fear Free Relief Professionals for a seamless experience that upholds your hospital’s values.

When setting up your hospital profile, you’ll have the option to indicate whether your hospital is Fear Free Certified, which will be visible to Vets and Techs. Roo Vets and Techs will also indicate whether they are Fear Free Certified on their profiles, so you can choose to confirm relief professionals who hold these certifications.
