Join a Team That Changes Lives Every Day

Do you have a passion for animal welfare and a desire to make a meaningful impact in your community? The Dubuque Regional Humane Society (DRHS) is seeking a compassionate, skilled, and motivated Part-Time Veterinary Assistant to join our veterinary team.

Every animal deserves exceptional care, and every team member plays a vital role in giving homeless pets a second chance. If you're looking for a career where your technical skills and love for animals truly matter, we'd love to meet you.

What You'll Do

As our Veterinary Assistant, you'll provide hands-on medical care and support for shelter animals while assisting our veterinarian with a wide variety of medical and surgical procedures. Your work will directly improve the health, comfort, and well-being of animals awaiting their forever homes.

Key Responsibilities

Perform intake examinations and administer vaccinations according to shelter protocols.
Administer oral, injectable, and topical medications.
Assist with surgical procedures, including patient preparation, anesthesia monitoring, intubation, nail trims, microchipping, and post-operative care.
Perform diagnostic testing including fecals, SNAP tests, urinalysis, and skin and ear cytology.
Maintain accurate paper and electronic medical records.
Provide compassionate nursing care and first aid to shelter animals.
Assist with humane euthanasia following established protocols.
Clean, disinfect, and maintain the veterinary clinic, equipment, and surgical instruments.
Ensure medical supplies remain stocked and organized.
Support foster caregivers and provide exceptional customer service to adopters, volunteers, and visitors.

What We're Looking For

We're seeking someone who combines technical veterinary skills with empathy, professionalism, and a genuine commitment to animal welfare.

Qualifications

Associate degree in a Veterinary Assistant program or an equivalent combination of education and experience.
Experience handling and restraining animals safely and compassionately.
Knowledge of animal health, vaccinations, diagnostics, anesthesia, and surgical procedures.
Strong organizational skills with exceptional attention to detail.
Excellent communication and interpersonal skills.
Ability to multitask, prioritize responsibilities, and work effectively in a fast-paced environment.
Ability to lift up to 50 pounds and remain on your feet for extended periods.
A collaborative team player committed to the mission of the Dubuque Regional Humane Society.

Why You'll Love Working at DRHS

At DRHS, your work has purpose. Every day brings new opportunities to improve the lives of animals while working alongside a dedicated team that shares your passion for compassionate care.

You'll enjoy:

Meaningful work that makes a lasting impact
A supportive, mission-driven team environment
Opportunities to expand your veterinary skills
The chance to be part of countless successful adoption stories

Work Schedule

This is a part-time, non-exempt position. Flexibility is required, including frequent evenings, weekends, and occasional extended hours to meet the needs of the animals in our care.

Working Environment

This position involves working in a veterinary and shelter setting with regular exposure to:

Animal odors and waste
High noise levels
Animal bites and scratches
Contagious diseases and medical conditions

Ready to Make a Difference?
