This opportunity is best suited for someone with established clinical skills who can contribute to a busy hospital environment with minimal ramp-up.

Compensation: $15–$22/hour, based on clinical experience, technical skills, and credentials.

What You'll Do

  • Assist veterinarians with patient examinations, diagnostics, treatments, and procedures.
  • Confidently handle and restrain patients of varying sizes and temperaments.
  • Perform venipuncture, collect laboratory samples, and assist with in-house diagnostics.
  • Administer medications and treatments as directed.
  • Support surgery, dentistry, anesthesia monitoring, and patient recovery.
  • Monitor hospitalized patients and communicate changes in condition.
  • Prepare exam rooms, treatment areas, and equipment.
  • Maintain accurate medical records and provide compassionate client communication.
  • Maintain a clean, organized, and efficient hospital environment.

What We're Looking For

  • 2+ years of hands-on small animal veterinary hospital experience as a Veterinary Assistant or Veterinary Technician.
  • Strong clinical skills and confidence with patient handling, restraint, and treatment support.
  • Experience with laboratory diagnostics, venipuncture, radiology, surgery, dentistry, or anesthesia monitoring.
  • Ability to recognize changes in patient condition and communicate concerns appropriately.
  • Strong organizational, communication, and teamwork skills.
  • Ability to prioritize responsibilities and contribute independently in a fast-paced clinical setting.
  • High school diploma or equivalent required.

Physical & Hospital Environment

This is an active, hands-on position requiring the ability to lift and restrain animals weighing up to 50 lbs., stand and walk for extended periods, and regularly bend, kneel, reach, and move throughout the hospital. Team members must be comfortable handling animals of varying sizes and temperaments, including fearful or fractious patients, and working around animal dander, bodily fluids, medications, cleaning products, and other typical veterinary hospital exposures while following appropriate safety and PPE protocols.

Reasonable accommodations may be available to enable qualified individuals to perform the essential functions of the position.
