We are seeking Veterinary Assistants to expand our team!
Veterinary Assistants work with both veterinarians and licensed veterinary technicians to handle a wide range of tasks including feeding, bathing, and exercising animals, cleaning and sterilizing equipment and facilities, and assisting in examinations, procedures, and administrative duties. Communicating and educating clients is another important aspect of this profession. This is an active, engaging and adaptable position. Individuals must be able to lift 50 pounds and to work on their feet throughout their shifts.
We are a privately owned, established, 5 doctor equivalent practice that is focused on preventative care and customer service. As a mixed animal practice we see a wide array of critters - from exotics to dogs and cats to cows, sheep, goats and horses. We provide in-clinic, house call, farm call and haul-in appointments. We provide hospitalization, full surgical (soft tissue and orthopedic) services, in-house and send-out diagnostics, and other services. The practice is open Monday through Friday.
Full time and part time positions are available. Experience is preferred, but not necessary. On-the-job training is provided. Salary will be commensurate with experience, but will start at $21 per hour. Additional compensation (once probationary period is complete) includes vacation, pet health care allottment, retirement and health insurance, and a clothing stipend.
We feel we have a very strong, positive work culture and are looking for individuals interested in joining us. If you are looking for a profession where every day is different and you want to make a difference in the lives of people and their animals, send your resume and cover letter to:
