Overview
We just keep growing! We are seeking an amazing Veterinary Technician or Veterinary Assistant to join our growing team as well. This role is essential in providing exceptional customer service and education, while ensuring the smooth operation of our veterinary practice. We are a privately owned hospital and know this is a career choice of passion for the fur babies and is also exceptionally difficult, stressful, and emotional at times. We do all get along here and feel there is enough drama with just the clients and thus we try to support each other whenever possible. A candidate who has a sense of humor, one that can show compassion and understanding to the client even when you want to pull their hair out would be preferred. Someone who takes the patient care very serious, but not themselves. We are hiring as much for personality as for skill, and need someone who can multitask and is detail oriented. We provide exceptional quality medicine and have high standards, but also understand how to use humor and caring to lighten the gravity and seriousness that we deal with. Are you ready to feel part of something special?
