Case study

How Rally boosts employee engagement and retention

Veterinary professionals dedicate their lives to caring for animals, but the reality is that burnout, stress, and disengagement are widespread across the industry. The work is demanding, and teams need more than just a paycheck to stay motivated—they need a culture of recognition, connection, and support.

That’s where Rally comes in. As Hound’s retention and engagement platform, Rally helps veterinary teams stay connected, celebrate wins, and support each other—all while giving leadership real-time insights into team well-being

Creating a positive and engaging work environment
Veterinary teams thrive when they have strong relationships. Rally isn’t just another HR tool—it’s a space where teams can recognize each other in ways that feel authentic and fun. From inside jokes to heartfelt shoutouts, Rally helps create a culture where gratitude is a daily habit.
Giving leadership valuable insights
‍Leaders often struggle to stay connected with the daily experiences of their teams—especially in larger or multi-location practices. Rally bridges this gap, giving managers and clinic owners a real-time view of team culture, recognition trends, and individual needs.
Celebrating people beyond just work
Veterinary work is personal. Teams spend long hours together, supporting each other through challenges. Rally helps clinics celebrate more than just professional achievements—it recognizes life milestones, too.
