Performing critical technical tasks such as venipuncture, running lab work, placing catheters, administering medications, and capturing patient vitals
Communicating clearly and compassionately with both pet owners and internal teams. You’ll be the voice of calm and reason when the unexpected happens—and the foundation of every pet’s emergency care.

We don’t just get through the workday—we embrace the opportunities to provide life-changing care. You’ll be surrounded by professionals who share your commitment to excellence and genuine compassion for animals.

Sound understanding and knowledge of medical terminology, medications, and disease processes
Attention to detail and a calm demeanor
