I graduated from college with a degree in advertising photography. I have worked professionally for large retail brands like Nike, Ralph Lauren, gap, and Tory Burch as a photo retoucher but I am now considering going back to school to become a vet. I know I need to take a couple of courses just to qualify because my degree did not involve any science or math courses. But now I’m concerned that I won’t be able to get in because I have no relevant vet experience besides caring for my own cats and dogs. How do I convince a vet to allow me to shadow them and get relevant vet experience when I don’t have any training? Currently I have a cat with acromegaly and this experience of handling her care is why I’m considering a career change. She gets daily medications including insulin injections, liquid medications, and pills. We visit the vets every two weeks and work with a specialist via email every 1-2 weeks. We track her glucose daily and do urinary checks for ketones regularly. Does any of this count as experience hours?
I may have missed this in another video but I have a question. How did you study when you were still in vet school after getting a puppy? I will be thankful if you share some tips and tricks. I am in vet school too. Just finished my 3rd year out of a 5.5 year program. We (my husband and I, I am around 8-9 years older than my colleagues) got a puppy in April and studying was impossible with her. I had so little time for anything that I fall behind in all subjests and as a result I failed most of my final exams. This semester I will drop out as I won't be accepted back with this many failed exams. I will study and retake them, hopefully I will pass this time so I will be able to enroll again in 2025. But I really wonder how did you do it all with a pup? Obviously it is possible, you did amazing!
I just started vet school this week and your videos have helped me so much!!
So exciting!!! Wishing you all the best - it’ll go by faster than you think!!
Congrats Amanda!
Thank you!!!
Hi everyone. I will go to a vet school this year and I'm not sure what to buy first A tablet or a laptop . As my budget is not enough for both of the devices right now 😢. Hope you give me your opinion. And thank you
your recent videos are good. with some strategic editing and effects. they have the potential to attract wider audience. and generate more engagement.
I'm in 10th grade right now...what school did you go to for undergrad? And what school did you attend after?
I went to the university of Guelph for my undergrad and the Ontario veterinary college for vet school!
@@yourvetamanda thank you
I wanna be a vet with one horse and two dogs when I’m older you’ve inspired me to follow my dreams now I know my biggest wish can be true
Thank you very much for sharing your life as a new veterinarian in this video. It encourages me a lot. I am going to go to pre med track this September and I hope I become a good veterinarian after graduating from the uni. Thank you very much for your video. ;-D all divinities bless you lovely lady!
I will be a vet too
I enjoy being a vet MUCH more than being a vet student. 21 years in and I can't imagine doing anything else, until I drop.

What a little stinker 😂
link stealing the slipper killed me
Right 😂 what a little stink
Have you found any regret/burnout/compassion fatigue? I'm working as a tech assistant rn at a vet ER while working on finishing my undergrad, and i feel quite fearful I guess? Some of the doctor and techs I work with seem to be so unhappy, and I constantly see posts on reddit and social media about burnout, the pay, and people leavivng the field, and it makes it hard to want to even work as an assistant at times. After getting a bad cat bite this weekend and seeing how differently a human ER works in comparison, I wonder if the risk is worth it and if I am going in the right direction...
Love your honesty and transparency! Proud of you ❤❤❤
Thank you so much 🫶🏼
Did you ever get the fish? 😂
Haha I did! Hugo cameo in the next video 😂
@@yourvetamanda good stuff! Be careful. Fish keeping is an addictive hobby. Google MTS. Before you know it you’ll have a fish room with 10 aquariums, even when you swore you’d only have 1
I’ve been struggling a lot lately - I’m in my 2nd month of practice. I’d love to see the templates that you use. Thank you so much for sharing this.❤
Can you do a video on how your mentorship went?
Absolutely!
It would do you well and successful to dive into nutrition
Nutrition is a huge part of my job! I probably do 2-3 nutrition consults a day!
I would love to see your templates!

Thank you!! 🫶🏼

I would love to hear about your mentorship experience vs your friends’ plsss😍😍
Can definitely film that!!!
@@yourvetamanda OMG thank you sooo much!!
4th year vet student here! I would love to get your opinion on mentorship! I would also be interested in reading your templates so that I can start making my own!
congratulations on a year of being a vet! 🎉❤
Thank you so much!! 🫶🏼
I love your videos! Would you mind sharing with me your templates? It'd be really helpful.
How long did it take you to feel comfortable to work by yourself? (Like one doctor Saturdays)
My situation was a little different where the initial plan was I was going to have another vet with me until I felt comfortable. We ended up being short staffed so I kinda got thrown into Saturdays on my own after 2ish months but it ended up working out fine! I probably would have kept a vet with me for a lot longer, more so as a lack of confidence thing, but have to just bite the bullet and get through a shift on my own made me realize that I was actually more comfortable than I realized. I always had (and still do to this day) have my mentor on speed dial that I can call if I ever get stuck when I'm by myself which made the whole thing more comfortable as well!
@@yourvetamanda Tomorrow is literally day 4 of being a vet for me lol. But they mentioned starting solo Saturdays in September with one hour appts and my mentor on speed dial. It sounds so scary 🥹 but at the same time it might help if they push me to fly a little 😁.
Going into my first year at OVC this fall and I can't tell you how much your videos have helped me and made me excited about this journey! Congratulations on this milestone!! :)
thank you so much!!! Congrats on yours!! SO excited for you!! If you have any questions about first year, don't hesitate to reach out!
A GREAT DEAL depends on the crew that you work with!
100%! Your team honestly can make or break your experience!
I love templates, they make clinical note taking so effortless and efficient ^_^ Would love if you could share yours... Proud of all veterinarians and vet staff <3
Recently changed country's and started in a new practice (I'm 2 years out of school now) and my mental health declined a lot... I've been struggling, and you're videos helped. Thank you for taking the time to make them! <3 (it's always good to know other people struggle with similar things as well)
Thank you so much for watching!!! Wishing you all the success and happiness in your new job!! 🫶🏼
Hope you are doing better
I'VE BEEN A VET FOR A FULL YEAR 🫶 how crazy is that?!? Here are some of the most important things I learned in my first year out in practice! Feel free to ask any questions down below or if you have any video suggestions, let me know!
As a vet student, i'm glad seeing other vet student doing the lab. Love from Indonesia ❤
thanks!
This physical exam that you explain is exactly what I observed in neurovet shadowing. Awesome!!
Hi can u kindly mention any salary range?
My graduating class signed anywhere from 95k-180k Canadian!
@@yourvetamanda thank you doc and do you have any idea about US?
@@Soumajit_karmakar I think on average it's about the same or slightly higher given that student debt in the US is typically higher! But don't quote me on that!
@@yourvetamanda I got it in 200k range
@@yourvetamanda thank you for your kind words love and appreciation from India 🇮🇳🙏
Hi Amanda, excellent video. I am international vet graduate, preparing for NAVLE. I also watched your video on vetcetera. I have one question i.e is there percentile marking in Navle.Which Navle window most Canadian graduate write for Navle. Is it April or December Navle window?
I love ur vids❤
Thanks for watching 🫶🏼
i’m currently a lab technician in my schools animal facility taking care of 100s of birds, doing basic husbandry and sometimes wound care and illness. Would this be animal experience, research experience, or vet hours? I am working under my professor who is a Zoologist
I would probably count it under animal experience!!
Where do you go to college? I am looking for colleges to go for being a veteran
Thank you for sharing I have been contemplateing vet school as I finish my undergrad. Having to preform euthinasia is whats stopping me. It goes again so many of my personal beliefs and messes with my role in nature. How does one find the positive in doing this? Even human doctors don't do this so I feel in a way they don't have to live with that guilt. I struggle a lot with it.
Vetpocket app! :)
Why are you telling it sucks? I am a first year vet student from Sri Lanka 🇱🇰
Not getting impostor syndrome until getting into vet school is WILD. That's been my whole life 😂😢
I love how you show the stress that follows new responsibilities! I’m happy that you’re doing what you love most! Is it okay if I ask a question?
Thank you!! Yes of course, ask away! You can also dm me on Instagram if you’d rather ask your question there! @yourvetamanda
@@yourvetamanda I can dm you on Instagram if I have any questions in the future but this time, I’ll just ask them here if that’s okay! So I was wondering if it’s possible to enter vet school with little mathematical knowledge? Like, what are the things you should have a decent understanding on beforehand?
@@empresseternity1 for Canadian/US vet schools there are certain prerequisite courses you need to apply to vet school. One of those courses is a statistics course so some level of math there! Also I found some of my sciences courses also had basic math in them! You don’t need to be fantastic at math but you definitely need a baseline!
I have a question, I’m still a teen but wanting to be a veterinarian when I’m older and I am nervous so that’s why I’m here lol. I’m wondering, will I be able to get home from being a vet at like 3-4? Because all of the vet videos I have seen talk about getting home at 8-9PM and I’m wanting to have kids and have time for them and have time for myself. Are we able to choose when we want to get home at?
YOUR EYES ARE SOOOOO PRETTYYY 🥹🥹
🐕 are a girls best friend ❤
Ever since 4th grade, I’ve planned to be a vet after my cat died in kindergarten. I never considered any other careers. I plan to work with exotic animals as well as house pets (mostly exotics😅). These videos helped me so much. THANK YOU SO MUCH!
thank you so much for this <3
Thanks for watching!! Glad it helped!!
