I Worked 18 Shifts Straight and Made $23K. This Year My Dream Business Will Hit Nearly $300K - Because Overhead Is So Low.

"I graduated vet school in 2020 and started at a general practice where I received six months of mentorship. In the last two months, I discovered veterinary relief work - filling in for other vets. Sometimes veterinarians are told, "Well, you can't go out into the wild or onto your own until you've been in practice for two years or three years," or things like that. But after deep thought and talking to my mentor, I decided to try Roo, a platform that connects veterinary professionals with relief work opportunities."

"So, after completing veterinary school, he began working at a clinic. Soon after, in October 2025, he opened his mobile veterinary practice, Concierge Companions Vet Med. The business is tracking toward approximately $284,660 in 2026 gross business deposits at the current run rate."

"Now, Vega has plans to roll out a retainer model and build up a fleet of mobile units."

After graduating veterinary school in 2020, Vega worked at a general practice with six months of mentorship. He later explored veterinary relief work by filling in for other veterinarians, using Roo to access flexible relief shifts. Starting in April 2025, he tested the platform and found higher earnings and improved work-life balance. By May 2025, he fully committed to relief work. In October 2025, he officially launched Concierge Companions Vet Med, a mobile veterinary practice based in Chicago, Illinois. The business is tracking toward about $284,660 in 2026 gross business deposits at the current run rate. Vega plans to roll out a retainer model and build a fleet of mobile units.
