Full Job Description

Overview

Edison Animal Hospital is a brand-new, privately owned small animal practice that is set to open in Grand Rapids, Michigan in September 2026. We are seeking a full time or part time veterinary assistant who is excited to grow along with the practice. The practice hours are 8am-6pm Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, and Friday, and 12pm-8pm on Wednesdays, with no weekend hours. Since we are a small independent practice, we are able to be flexible with hours and time off- work/life balance is important to us! We will be offering wellness and illness appointments, diagnostics including digital radiology, in-house labs, reference labs, and abdominal ultrasound, dentistry, soft tissue surgery, and acupuncture. This is an excellent opportunity for a motivated assistant who is interested in helping shape the culture of a new practice, or who has a special interest of their own that they would appreciate help in developing. Pay will be commensurate with experience and benefits will include paid time off, uniform allowance, 401K with match after the first year, health insurance stipend, and pet health discounts. If this sounds like a good match for you, please email your resume to and we can set up a time to talk!

Maintain accurate records of animal treatments, medications, and procedures in compliance with clinic protocols
Support inventory management by restocking supplies, sterilizing instruments, and monitoring medication stock levels
Ensure the safety and cleanliness of the clinic environment to promote optimal health standards for staff and animals

Requirements

Passion for animal welfare with a positive, energetic attitude toward teamwork and client interaction
Ability to handle animals safely while demonstrating patience and compassion
Strong organizational skills to manage multiple tasks efficiently in a busy setting
Excellent communication skills for clear interactions with pet owners, team members, and vendors
Basic knowledge of veterinary terminology, animal anatomy, or previous experience in animal care is preferred but not required
Willingness to learn new skills quickly and adapt to evolving clinic needs
Ability to stand, walk, bend, and lift for extended periods throughout the workday

This paid position offers an engaging environment where your energy fuels exceptional animal care. Whether you’re starting your career or looking to expand your experience in veterinary medicine, this role provides meaningful work that makes a difference every day. Join us in creating healthier lives for pets while growing your professional skills!
