Getting paid with Roo is fast and easy — immediately after you work a shift, you’ll be paid via direct deposit in just two business days!

No. As a relief veterinary technician, taxes are not taken out of your income, so you’ll get paid every cent you see listed on the shift card. However, you will be responsible for paying taxes on this income at a later date, so we recommend setting some of your Roo earnings aside for tax payments.

Roo provides a number of resources and significant help with your taxes as an independent contractor, which you can find in our Tax Center. Roo's platform automatically keeps track of your earnings and milage to help you file taxes each year.
