Please note: Previous veterinary clinical experience is required for this position. This is not an entry-level training position.

Do you love working with animals and being part of a team that makes a real difference every day? Are you calm in busy moments, organized, and always ready to lend a helping hand (or hold a paw)?

We’re looking for a compassionate, dependable Veterinary Assistant to join our clinic and help us provide exceptional care to our patients and their people.

No two days are ever the same here — and that’s just the way we like it!

What You’ll Be Doing

Your day may include:

• Assisting veterinarians and technicians during exams and procedures
• Safely restraining patients using low-stress handling techniques
• Preparing exam rooms and surgical areas
• Providing nursing support for hospitalized patients
• Administering medications as directed
• Monitoring patients and reporting changes to the medical team
• Running basic laboratory tests
• Cleaning and sterilizing equipment
• Maintaining accurate medical records
• Keeping kennels and clinic areas clean and sanitized
• Educating clients on general pet care and post-visit instructions

What We’re Looking For

We’re excited to meet someone who is:

• Experienced in animal handling and restraint (preferred)
• Knowledgeable in basic animal care and husbandry
• Comfortable working in a fast-paced environment
• Detail-oriented and organized
• A strong communicator with a friendly, professional attitude
• Compassionate toward both animals and their owners
• A reliable team player who is eager to learn

Previous veterinary or animal care experience is required, as well as a good attitude, strong work ethic, and a genuine love of animals.

Why You’ll Love Working Here

• A supportive, team-focused environment
• Meaningful work that truly impacts pets and their families
• Opportunities to learn and grow your skills
• Lots of tail wags, happy purrs, and grateful clients

If you’re passionate about animal care and ready to be part of a team that works hard and supports each other, we’d love to hear from you!
