Hours vary among veterinarians. A DVM out of college may work in a private practice or an emergency practice (after hours) and have to work the hours that are given to them. This could mean 7 days a week or 2-3 days a week, depending on the client base.
Veterinarians who have their own practice may work Monday through Saturday and still have calls throughout the night and on Sundays.
Animals, like humans, can need medical attention on Christmas or at 2am on a Tuesday. In a smaller town with one veterinarian, a doctor can work around the clock whereas in a metro area there are emergency after hours clinics and dozens of doctors to go around and the supply meets the demand, so to speak.

Can veterinarians work part time?
Yes, some veterinarians do work part time. This has become slightly more popular as the demographics of working veterinarians shifts towards being more heavily female - women veterinarians are more likely to want to work part time and trade a smaller paycheck for more time for family and home. This option is also being used by veterinarians with injuries/illnesses that make it difficult for them to work a full day but they aren't mentally, emotionally, or financially ready to retire yet.
Are there any other places veterinarians work?
Most veterinarians work in private practice clinics around the world, treating privately owned animals. However, some work in zoos and wildlife parks, others work in the pharmaceutical industry, there are veterinarians in the military and some that work in the government.

How many vacations does a veterinarian get?
This varies depending upon the country's laws and the contract negotiated by the veterinarian with the employer. In countries with mandatory minimum paid sick days, veterinarians get at least the minimum. However, it is possible for veterinarians to negotiate for more paid sick days per year in their employment contracts. In the United States, which has no minimum mandatory paid sick days, the average is about 3, although this ranges from 0 to 10 days per year. In many cases when veterinarians don't have paid sick days they have a set number of paid leave days that can be used as both sick leave and vacation leave.
