Dzuni Ngobeni
Practice Owner Vets for Pets Beckenham

I would 100% recommend Ronda. It’s a game changer.

It’s efficient, it’s cost effective, and it puts the control back where it should be – between the locum and the practice.

Maureen Murphy
Practice Owner The Hoxton Vet

The process was simple, transparent, and completely stress-free.

“We couldn’t believe how fast it worked. Our shift went live and within 42 seconds we had an application. Less than an hour later, the locum was confirmed, faster than any recruiter we’ve ever used. The process was simple, transparent, and completely stress-free.”

Alejandro Perez
Practice Owner Ecovets

Super simple, well organised and intuitive.

“I registered and posted shifts in just a few minutes. Everything’s super simple, well organised and intuitive.”

David Mwangi
Practice Owner Petwell House Vets

With Ronda’s detailed profiles and direct communication, that’s never been a problem again

“Before Ronda, we often had miscommunication and misunderstandings about shift roles and the type of locum we needed. With Ronda’s detailed profiles and direct communication, that’s never been a problem again.”

Malcolm Leow
Practice Owner Paws in the City

The rating system is especially helpful for choosing the right fit with confidence.

“The platform is super intuitive and easy to use. The rating system is especially helpful for choosing the right fit with confidence. I also really liked how easy it was to message and negotiate directly with the locum.”

Denise Diana
Head RVN Bayswater Veterinary Referral Clinic

We’ve been able to fill gaps straight away whenever needed.

“Ronda has been incredibly helpful for our practice. The direct, immediate contact makes a real difference, and we’ve been able to fill gaps straight away whenever needed. The service has been very reliable, and we’ve only had positive experiences with the locums so far. Communication through the app is clear and easy, making organising cover quick and stress-free.”

Frequently
asked
questions

How are locums vetted before they join the platform?

All locums on Ronda are verified before they can apply for shifts. We check their RCVS registration, ID, and right to work in the UK. Additionally, our review system creates ongoing quality assurance based on actual performance.

What geographic areas does Ronda cover?

Across the UK. We support practices nationwide. Availability can vary by region and season, which means some shifts fill faster than others. Post your shift and matched locums receive automatic notification straight away; our team can also help you boost visibility if needed.

How do we pay locums?

You pay the locum directly, not through the Ronda platform. Once the placement is complete, the locum is responsible for sending you their invoice based on the agreed terms. Ronda does not handle or process any payments between practices and locums.

What support is available if we encounter issues?

Our support team is made up of veterinary professionals who truly understand your daily challenges. We’re here to help via the in-platform chat, WhatsApp 07411 510878, email contact@ronda.vet, or by phone on 020 4539 4560.
