The ideal person for this job will have a great sense of humor (because we like to enjoy our work environment), enjoy being part of a team that has high medical standards and a strong sense of compassion for the animals in our care, and takes pride in making a positive impact in the lives of animals living in your community. Good communication skills are a plus (because we are a chatty bunch), as is someone who finds value in knowing that every day when you leave the clinic, you helped pet owners who may not have gotten help anywhere else to fix their companion animals.
