Practices. Locums. Connected.

MFL was built because finding and managing locums felt harder than it needed to be.

Being a locum in 2026 still means zero support, zero regulations.

So as vets, nurses, practice owners ourselves - we are disrupting the locum recruitment market.

Locums register for free, practices join on a simple monthly subscription, and both build their own trusted network over time. No pay-per-shift fees, no endless agency calls and no starting from scratch every time you need support.

Just one place where practices and locums can connect, build relationships and make finding work — or finding cover — feel a lot more straightforward.

Simple really.

Bank Holiday rates are great… until a certain someone realises your shift means *their* duvet day has also been cancelled 👀

Just a reminder that pets contribute to household income through cuddles, treats and emotional support.

Not last-minute Bank Holiday cover.

The complaints department has already been contacted.

Happy Bank Holiday

Veterinary locuming has been stuck in the same cycle for years: agency fees, pay-per-shift costs, rota stress and last-minute panic.

We are changing that:

No more endless agency calls.
No more panic SOS Facebook posts.
No more whats app messages to your 5 regular locums.
No more pay-per-shift fees.
No more rota stress.

Instead one automated seamless platform delivering unlimited usage/bookings/payments.

We’re disrupting the old way of doing things and building a future where veterinary locuming is transparent, connected and actually works for the people using it.

Register. Build your locum bank. Let the right shifts — and the right people — come to you.

Simple. Predictable. Built by the industry, for the industry.

The home of veterinary locums 🏡

For years, the veterinary locum world has worked the same way: panic posts, endless WhatsApp messages, spreadsheets, agencies taking huge cuts and practices scrambling at the last minute hoping someone is available.

We decided “that’s just how it is” wasn’t good enough.

We’re disrupting the way veterinary locuming works by creating something built around the people actually using it.

For locums:
Education, community, support and tools to help you become a stronger business owner, not just someone filling shifts.

For practices:
Access to your own locum bank of vetted, compatible professionals who fit your team, culture and way of working. Less time firefighting. Less uncertainty. Better long-term relationships.

Because compatibility matters just as much as availability.

Better systems create better teams, smoother shifts and better patient care.

The future of veterinary locuming shouldn’t be chaotic. It should be transparent, connected and built around the profession not against it.

Welcome home.

We are already the largest locum community in the UK, what are you waiting for?

Mental Health Awareness Week may have officially ended on the 17th, but looking after your mind shouldn’t only happen for one week a year. 🧠✨

Working in veterinary can mean constantly being switched on caring for patients, supporting clients, helping your team and somehow trying to look after yourself somewhere in between.

So here are 6 mindful activities that can help create small moments of pause in busy days. Not because mindfulness magically fixes everything, but because sometimes even five minutes can make a difference.

And before anyone says it… yes, “drink water and go for a walk” has entered the chat 👀

What’s one thing you do that genuinely helps you switch off? 👇

Mental health in veterinary nursing doesn’t suddenly disappear because you’re a locum.

Behind the flexibility can be constant adapting, being the “new person” again, learning unfamiliar clinics, and carrying the pressure of wanting to do a good job every single shift.

Locum RVNs are often expected to walk in and make it look easy. But making it look easy doesn’t always mean it feels easy.

Message from our Founder, Molly;

I became a locum RVN nearly 10 years ago (say that quietly please 👀), and despite always being a confident person, locuming was very daunting and even more isolating. Learning quickly how to make an invoice, what to charge, walking into toxic team cultures where people thought giving the locum the crap jobs was just what you did, and constantly being told, “that’s just how it is.” With no community to turn to, I created my own, and since 2017 we have educated teams on how to treat temporary staff and taught locums how to be business owners and make a real difference. So often people think only locum vets are needed, or that only locum vets can generate revenue for a practice. Yet locum RVNs are the ones ensuring your vets are free and on time for their next consult, making sure your meds are booked out correctly, noticing you did 3 x-rays and not 2, or letting you know a patient is feeling sick and to consider adding in Prevomax that may have been missed.

Locum RVNs are secondary revenue generators through time-saving, efficiency and acting as your vet’s second brain. Don’t underestimate them.

I walk into my night shifts and my night vet breathes a sigh of relief they are working with me. That is something I will ALWAYS be proud of.

This Veterinary Nursing Awareness Month, a reminder that resilience and adaptability are strengths but nurses deserve support too.

I genuinely don’t know how some practice managers sleep at night knowing their entire staffing strategy is basically held together by hope and two regular locums.

I think a lot of practices still only think about locums when they’re already in trouble.That feels mad to me.

Some practices are running with the same 1 or 2 regular locums and just hoping nothing ever changes. Hoping they’re always free. Hoping nobody goes off sick. Hoping nobody burns out. Hoping the rota somehow survives another month.

But what’s the plan when both of them are busy?

Because eventually they will be.

Then suddenly the team is stretched, consults are cancelled, clients are annoyed, revenue is lost, and everyone’s stressed trying to fix something last minute that probably should’ve been planned for earlier.

I think practices need to stop viewing locums as emergency cover and start treating them more like a bench team.

People you already know.
People you trust.
People already verified and familiar with your practice.
People you can actually rely on when things get busy.

That’s why building a locum bank matters.

And honestly, before buying another bit of tech promising to “streamline your practice”, I’d probably start with the actual workforce first.

Because no system works well when the team holding it together is exhausted. 🦙
