- Handling and Comforting Patients – Safely restraining dogs and cats while keeping stress levels low
- Assisting with Treatments – Supporting technicians and doctors during exams and procedures
- Clinic Organization – Cleaning, stocking, and keeping things running efficiently
- Patient Care – Helping pets feel safe and comfortable
- Client Communication – Answering basic questions and ensuring pet owners feel informed and supported
- Front Desk/Reception - Assist reception staff with answering phones and patient check-ins during peak hours.

- Has experience working with animals (professional experience preferred but not required)
- Has basic computer skills (knowledge of Avimark software preferred)
- Is comfortable handling dogs and cats, including those who may be anxious or reactive
- Loves working on a team and takes initiative to help where needed
