We're Looking for Our Next Rockstar Veterinary Assistant!
Some people see a busy veterinary hospital and think, "That looks exhausting."
The right person sees it and thinks, "Let's do this."
At Moffitt Animal Clinic, every day brings new challenges, new patients, and new opportunities to make a difference. We're a growing hospital that's constantly improving, and we're looking for someone who wants to grow right alongside us.
We're searching for a Veterinary Assistant who is compassionate, dependable, adaptable, and genuinely enjoys being part of a hardworking team. Someone who understands that great veterinary medicine isn't just about technical skills. It's about communication, teamwork, problem-solving, and showing up for your coworkers just as much as your patients.
You'll probably love it here if you...
- Enjoy staying busy and dislike watching the clock.
- Love helping both pets and the people who love them.
- Like learning new skills and finding ways to improve every day.
- Believe teamwork makes hard days manageable and great days even better.
- Want a career where your contributions actually matter.
What You'll Be Doing
No two days are exactly alike, but your responsibilities may include:
- Animal nursing care
- Surgical and dental assistance
- Laboratory diagnostics
- Digital radiology
- Safe, compassionate animal restraint
- Client education and communication
- Medical record documentation and clerical support
- Helping the hospital operate efficiently while providing exceptional patient care
What We're Looking For
- 3 to 5 years of hands-on veterinary assistant experience
- Strong organizational and time management skills
- Ability to multitask while maintaining attention to detail
- Excellent communication and client service skills
- A positive attitude and willingness to jump in wherever needed
- Confidence working independently while also thriving as part of a collaborative team
- Comfortable using computers and veterinary software
What Success Looks Like
We value team members who consistently demonstrate excellence in:
- Patient nursing care
- Surgical and dental support
- Laboratory diagnostics
- Radiology
- Animal handling and restraint
- Client communication
- Efficiency and organization
- Continuous learning and professional growth
- Providing exceptional service to every patient, client, and coworker
We aren't looking for perfection.
We're looking for someone who cares deeply, works hard, embraces teamwork, and wants to help build a hospital that's always striving to be better than it was yesterday.
If that sounds like you, we'd love to meet you.
