If you thrive under pressure, love problem-solving, and enjoy collaborating with a dedicated team, this may be the perfect opportunity for you!

  • 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.
