Building Animal Health & Veterinary Medicine Since 1997

Many people know The VET Recruiter for placing veterinarians. What some people don’t realize is that our roots began first in the Animal Health industry.

Long before we expanded into veterinary practice recruiting, we were partnering with Animal Health, Animal Nutrition, and Pet Products companies to recruit leaders and professionals who drive innovation and business growth. Today, our search practice spans the entire Animal Health, Animal Nutrition, Pet Products, and Veterinary ecosystem.

“With Stacy’s help, I not only found a new role in industry, but thanks to her diligent work to create a good fit, I found a new and incredibly fulfilling career path that I had never imagined, that leverages my skills and passions in a way I hadn’t realized possible. I thank Stacy tremendously for opening my eyes to new possibilities and sending me on a path that has brought me the challenging and engaging work that I enjoy.”

“When it comes to securing quality talent within the animal health industry, Stacy is the best! I

Hal Pyke Headshot

Hal Pyke Founding Team Member,
Former Vice President of Petvet Care Centers

“Throughout my 15-year tenure in hiring veterinarians, I’ve come to realize how crucial it is to build solid, honest relationships rather than relying on trendy sales techniques. Connecting with trustworthy partners is key to seeing beyond the surface image that many big companies put up to attract candidates. Stacy is one of hose go-to people I trust. I affectionately call her the Vet Whisperer because she’s fantastic at bridging the gap between what vets want and what employers need. She’s been a huge asset to me, and I’m always quick to recommend her to both vets and HR professionals.”

Dennis F. Steadman
Founder of Merial and Velcera and Member of Steadman Capital

“As an investor and board member of several animal health companies, I believe nothing is more important than finding top talent. I have worked with Stacy Pursell for many, many years for good reason. She is 100% professional, thorough, well connected and well informed. I have full faith in her dedication and diligence to complete the task in a high-quality fashion.”

Peter McCarthy Headshot

Former COO North America at Argenta and Former President of Henry Schein Animal Health

“Our team has worked with Stacy Pursell and her team on a consistent basis for a number of years because she is the best in our business. Well-connected and well informed. We could not have wished for a more responsive and thoughtful recruitment consultant partner who always met our needs at both middle management and executive levels.”
