Job Description

We are building a small-animal general practice veterinary hospital where excellent medicine and genuine, attentive client and patient care come together. We are looking for a veterinary assistant or RVT who wants to grow with us and help create a hospital culture where team members feel supported, pet parents feel respected, and every patient receives thoughtful, attentive care.

This position may be a strong fit for you if you:

  • Care deeply about animals and the people who love them
  • Take pride in being dependable, prepared, and attentive
  • Enjoy learning and ask questions when you are unsure
  • Accept coaching and use feedback to improve
  • Notice what needs to be done and take initiative
  • Communicate clearly and concisely with clients and teammates
  • Stay calm, organized, and compassionate during busy or difficult moments
  • Want to become excellent in your role and / or grow into a more challenging role

What You Will Do

Responsibilities may include:

  • Safely restraining dogs and cats
  • Preparing examination and treatment areas
  • Assisting with appointments, diagnostic procedures, treatments, and surgery
  • Collecting and preparing laboratory samples
  • Monitoring and supporting hospitalized and recovering patients
  • Maintaining accurate medical records
  • Cleaning and disinfecting equipment and patient-care areas
  • Explaining basic veterinary instructions clearly and compassionately
  • Supporting the veterinary team wherever help is needed
  • Supporting customer service responsibilities if / when necessary

What We Value

We believe a strong hospital is built by people who work toward one shared purpose. We value:

  • Clear and respectful communication
  • Reliability and personal responsibility
  • Curiosity and continued learning
  • Teamwork without ego
  • Attention to detail
  • Honest communication when something is unclear or has gone wrong
  • A commitment to giving pet parents practical guidance they can understand and follow

Over one year of previous work experience in a veterinary hospital is preferred, but will consider less experience for the right candidate. Candidates should be comfortable and confident handling and safely restraining dogs and cats. Familiarity with common clinical procedures is an asset, but we are willing to train the right person who demonstrates maturity, reliability, compassion, and a sincere commitment to veterinary medicine.

Position Details

  • Full-time preferred but Part-time candidates are welcome to apply
  • Position is open to both RVT and VA
  • Schedule may include weekdays and Saturdays
  • Compensation based on experience, knowledge, reliability, and demonstrated skills
  • Opportunities for continued learning and professional growth

We are especially interested in candidates who want to build a long-term career, contribute ideas, and grow alongside a developing hospital.
