Full Job Description

Are you passionate about helping animals and eager to grow your clinical skills in a fast-paced environment? At Metropolitan Veterinary Associates (MVA), we recognize that our Emergency Veterinary Technician Assistants are essential team members who help ensure our patients receive urgent, life-saving care. If you thrive under pressure, love problem-solving, and enjoy collaborating with a dedicated team, this may be the perfect opportunity for you!

Our Mission

Our goal is simple but profound: to improve the lives of pets, their families, and our community by providing compassionate, high-quality specialty and emergency care. If you share our passion for animal well-being and collaborative teamwork, we’d love you to explore this opportunity.

Who We Are

We are a leading specialty and emergency hospital, housed in a state-of-the-art 25,000-square-foot facility equipped to handle a wide range of complex cases.
With 13 specialty departments, our team includes top experts in fields such as internal medicine, surgery, cardiology, and more, ensuring comprehensive care for our patients.
Our culture is built on continuous learning, mentorship, and genuine support, which means you’ll have ample opportunities to expand your skills alongside leaders in the industry.

What You’ll Do

As an Emergency Veterinary Assistant at MVA, you will play a key role in supporting our emergency department, helping our technicians and veterinarians provide rapid, high-quality care. In this position, you will:

Assist with triage, anesthesia, surgery and discharge preparation.
Provide hands-on support during emergency procedures—helping with patient restraint, positioning, and basic treatments.
Prepare and restock treatment areas with necessary supplies and ensure equipment is clean, organized, and readily available.
Communicate compassionately with pet parents—answer basic questions, direct them to the appropriate team member, and offer a comforting presence during stressful times.
Perform basic laboratory tasks, such as setting up samples for testing and collecting vital patient data under the guidance of a technician or veterinarian.
Collaborate with emergency technicians and doctors, sharing crucial updates and contributing to an efficient, team-oriented work environment.

We don’t just get through the workday; we embrace the challenges and triumphs that come with providing emergency care. You’ll be surrounded by professionals who share your commitment to excellence and a genuine passion for animal welfare.

Anticipated Schedule

This is a full-time position with the following available schedule:

Sunday - Wednesday: 10:00pm - 8:00am
Please note that some holidays are required.

Compensation

Starting at $20.00/hour, plus a 25% shift differential

What’s in It for You?

At MVA, we take care of our team in the same way we care for our patients—wholeheartedly. We offer:

Supportive culture with social events & team-building activities
Competitive paid time off & holiday pay
Paid volunteer time off
Education Assistance Program & tuition reimbursement
Career growth & training opportunities to help you advance your skills and knowledge supported by our dedicated Education and Development team.
Continuing education paid time off and allowance
Comprehensive medical, dental, and vision insurance
Mental health-focused services to ensure you thrive both personally and professionally
401(k) plan with a strong employer match
Significant employee pet care discount
Annual uniform allowance so you’re always prepared for the next case
A workplace where you’ll feel valued, heard, and excited to come to work each day

We know changing jobs can be a big step. We treat every interview as confidential, and if you’d prefer an informal conversation first, we’re happy to do that. We genuinely love what we do and welcome the chance to share our passion with you!

What We’re Looking For

We’re seeking Emergency Veterinary Assistants who excel in a dynamic setting and find fulfillment in helping pets in need. You likely have:

Previous experience in a veterinary, animal care, or shelter environment (preferred, but not required if you have a strong desire to learn)
Solid communication skills, especially under pressure, and a keen ability to collaborate in a team-focused environment
Basic knowledge of animal handling, restraint, and common veterinary terminology (or a willingness to learn quickly)
A calm, organized demeanor—capable of juggling multiple tasks in a fast-paced setting
Attention to detail and a commitment to accuracy when handling medical records, supplies, and patient care
A passion for continuous learning, welcoming every shift as a chance to refine your skills and knowledge

If you’re driven by the opportunity to support life-saving care, grow your career, and work alongside a passionate, dedicated team, apply today and join Metropolitan Veterinary Associates in making a difference for pets and their families!
