About Us

Join our friendly, modern companion animal hospital in Carson City! DOCs Veterinary Hospital is looking for a motivated, energetic, and dependable Entry-Level Veterinary Assistant to join our team.

No prior veterinary experience is required. We can teach you the veterinary skills you need, but we're looking for someone who brings a great attitude, strong work ethic, initiative, and a willingness to jump in and help.

This is an active, hands-on job. The right person is a go-getter who thinks quickly on their feet, can handle a busy environment, and doesn't wait around to be told what needs to be done.

Why You'll Love Working Here

Predictable Weekday Schedule: Monday–Friday with no weekends or holidays
Competitive Starting Pay: $15/hour to start, with opportunities for raises as you gain experience and skills
Full Benefits Package: Health, dental, vision, 401(k) with employer match, paid time off, and employee pet care discount
Hands-On Learning: Learn animal care, patient handling, client communication, and hospital procedures from an experienced team
Supportive Culture: Work alongside a team that values communication, teamwork, and helping one another
Opportunity to Grow: Gain valuable skills and experience in a professional veterinary hospital

Shift Schedule

Opening Shift: 7:15 AM – 4:30 PM, Monday–Friday

Closing Shift: 9:30 AM – Close
Approximately 6:30 PM Monday–Thursday and 5:30 PM Friday

10-hour shifts scheduled after initial probationary period.

Applicants must be available to rotate through all shifts.

What You'll Be Doing

Assist veterinarians and veterinary technicians with patient care
Safely handle and restrain dogs and cats of all sizes and temperaments
Assist with appointments, treatments, procedures, and surgery preparation
Help prepare treatment areas and maintain a clean, organized hospital
Learn to assist with vaccinations, laboratory procedures, and sample collection
Clean and disinfect kennels, treatment areas, equipment, and exam rooms
Accurately update patient records
Help with stocking and maintaining hospital supplies
Communicate professionally with clients and team members
Follow instructions carefully while also recognizing when something needs to be done and taking initiative
Jump in to help other team members when the hospital gets busy

This Job Is Physically Active

Veterinary assisting is not a desk job. Applicants should understand that you will spend much of your shift standing, walking, bending, lifting, cleaning, and working directly with animals.

You must be able to:

Lift and carry up to 50 pounds
Safely handle and restrain animals
Remain on your feet for extended periods of time
Move quickly and efficiently throughout the hospital
Work comfortably in a fast-paced environment
Perform repetitive cleaning and physical tasks throughout the day

Not afraid to get their hands dirty
Comfortable handling animals
Able to follow instructions and accept feedback
A team player who is willing to jump in wherever needed
Positive, professional, and respectful toward clients and coworkers
Able to stay calm and productive when things get busy
Interested in building a career in veterinary medicine

You don't need to know everything when you walk through our doors—we're willing to teach. What we can't teach is work ethic, reliability, initiative, and a willingness to work hard.
