Who We Are
Dutch is transforming veterinary care by making expert treatment accessible anytime, anywhere. Our mission is simple: help every pet live their happiest, healthiest life by connecting pet parents with licensed vets through seamless virtual visits.
We’re the only veterinary telemedicine service that can diagnose, prescribe, and ship medications directly to customers – offering real relief and convenience for pets and their families. As one customer put it: “Dutch was the only site that would diagnose and prescribe meds as well as ship the meds.”
Backed by world-class investors including Forerunner Ventures, Eclipse Ventures, and Bling Capital, our team is made up of successful startup founders (Hims, PlushCare, Nasty Gal) with expertise in scaling enterprises (TripAdvisor, Walmart). Featured in TechCrunch, Forbes, Wired, and Axios, Dutch is setting the standard for quality, accessibility, and compassion in pet care.

The role of a Customer Service Representative (CS Rep) at Dutch is to deliver exceptional customer support and represent the Dutch brand with empathy, professionalism, and efficiency. CS Reps are the foundation of the Customer Experience team, responsible for creating seamless, positive experiences for our customers and their pets.
This is a full-time (40 hours per week) remote position with a standard Tuesday – Saturday schedule. Shifts may change based on business needs, and we’ll strive to provide as much notice as possible if adjustments are required. Overtime may be needed during periods of high volume.
A successful CS Rep consistently meets and exceeds daily performance targets, handles inquiries with care and accuracy, and works collaboratively with the team to resolve customer concerns. Above all, a CS Rep embodies Dutch’s commitment to delivering best-in-class service. They are passionate about helping pet parents, driven to find solutions, and dedicated to improving every customer’s experience with Dutch. This role is ideal for someone who is motivated, compassionate, and excited to make a meaningful impact through outstanding customer care.
