Maintain complete, accurate, and timely medical records.
Clean, disinfect, sterilize, and properly maintain medical instruments, equipment, examination rooms, treatment areas, kennels, and surgical spaces.
Provide compassionate nursing care, including feeding, walking, grooming, cleaning, and monitoring hospitalized patients.
Educate pet owners regarding medications, discharge instructions, nutrition, preventive care, and general animal health.
Communicate professionally and compassionately with clients, veterinarians, coworkers, and other members of the hospital team.
Assist with inventory, stocking, medication preparation, and other hospital duties as assigned.
Help maintain an organized, clean, safe, and efficient work environment.

Previous veterinary technician, veterinary assistant, or equivalent clinical animal-care experience.
Strong knowledge of veterinary terminology, animal anatomy, physiology, and common medical procedures.
Experience with safe animal restraint and handling.
Experience collecting diagnostic samples and performing in-house laboratory testing.
Experience placing intravenous catheters and assisting with venipuncture.
Familiarity with surgical preparation, aseptic technique, anesthesia monitoring, and patient recovery.
Familiarity with veterinary dental terminology and procedures.
Ability to maintain accurate medical records and follow written and verbal instructions.
Ability to work effectively in a fast-paced and physically demanding environment.
Strong communication, organizational, and time-management skills.
Ability to work cooperatively as part of a team.
Reliable attendance and punctuality.
Availability to work a full-time schedule that may include evenings and Saturdays.

Preferred Qualifications

Veterinary Technician certification, licensure, or formal veterinary technology education is preferred but not required.
Experience with veterinary practice-management software.
Experience assisting with surgery, dentistry, radiology, and anesthesia monitoring.
Previous kennel, grooming, or professional dog-handling experience.
Experience providing client education and reviewing discharge instructions.
Fear Free, CPR, or other veterinary certifications are a plus.
Equine-care experience is welcome but is not required for this small-animal position.

Physical Requirements

Candidates must be able to:

Safely lift, carry, and restrain animals of varying sizes.
Stand, walk, bend, kneel, and remain active for extended periods.
Assist with moving patients, equipment, food, and supplies.
Work around animal hair, dander, bodily fluids, cleaning products, medications, and other materials commonly found in a veterinary hospital.
Safely perform job duties while working with animals that may be fearful, painful, stressed, or reactive.

Ideal Candidate

The ideal candidate is compassionate, motivated, dependable, and comfortable taking initiative while working under the direction of a veterinarian. This individual should value teamwork, communicate respectfully, remain calm under pressure, and take pride in delivering excellent patient care and client service.
