Trice C. DVM

Dr. Cindy Trice, a distinguished alumna of the UC Davis School of Veterinary Medicine, embodies the spirit of innovation, compassion, and entrepreneurialism within the field of veterinary medicine.  With over two decades of experience as a multi-state licensed relief veterinarian, Dr. Trice has traversed various facets of veterinary practice, from general care to emergency services, mobile clinics, and shelters. Her diverse experiences have honed her clinical skills and instilled in her a deep understanding of the dynamic needs and challenges within the profession. In 2018, Dr. Trice founded Relief Rover a groundbreaking platform that connects relief veterinarians and technicians with job opportunities and vital resources. Relief Rover quickly garnered recognition and was eventually acquired by Hound, where Dr. Trice assumed the role of Chief Veterinary Officer, further solidifying her position as a trailblazer in the industry. Dr. Trice's profound belief in the transformative power of relief work is encapsulated in her own words: “Relief work is such a vital part of the wellbeing of our profession. The variety and flexibility of this type of practice can be useful for many stages in a veterinary professional’s career and facilitate family responsibilities, financial goals, examination of other disciplines, or life aspirations.”
