This will depend on the type of practice the vet is in and whether or not he/she is on emergency duty that night. When not on emergency call, a vet can get the same amount of sleep that most adults do: 6-10 hours a night depending on the individual vet. When the vet is on emergency call, he/she may not get any sleep at all depending on whether an emergency is called in.

A vet works about 9 hours a day and should be able to be called on 24/7. But you can have shifts within the day.
More than 7 hours
about 5:30am to 5:30pm and add it all together 12hours.
At a specialty clinic, a vet may work 6-8 hours a day during the week. In contrast, an ambulatory large animal vet may work 20 hours a day during the week if he is on call for emergency after working a 10 hour day shift.

There are many animals seen by a vet in a single day. A vet can see 10 or more at a busy clinic.
Horses can sleep anywhere from a few minutes a day to 12 hours A horse in a herd will sleep much longer and better than a horse on its own, because when a horse is in a herd one horse will always be awake watching for danger. When a horse is on its own it is always woried its going to be eaten by a wolf or a tiger, we know there is none of those in there paddock but they dont. Horses mopstly sleep standing, but also lie down in the sun for a few hours at a time if your horse is lieing down for more than 2-3 hours at a time you should call the vet.
You can ask your vet to put your animal to sleep in your home. Many vets will oblige this wish if you can show your reasons for it and that it is best for the animal.
There are many demands on a vet. Just like human doctors, they may have to deal with tragedy when a patient dies. They are also on call for long hours each day. Vets have the added problem of not being able to ask their patients what hurts or what is wrong.
