WANTED: Superhero Sidekicks (Veterinary Assistants)
Every superhero needs a stellar sidekick. At Animal Wellness Center, our Veterinary Assistants are the unsung heroes of the exam room, the ones who keep things running, the patients calm, and the whole operation humming like a finely-tuned Batmobile.
No cape required on day one, just a passion for animals, a willingness to learn, and the drive to grow into a full-blown veterinary hero. We'll supply the tools, the training, and the team. You supply the heart. Work-life balance? Oh, we've got that too. And yes, compensation is pretty damn good for the right sidekick.
What makes AWC different
Structured mentorship from day one, real clinical learning alongside experienced veterinarians and technicians, and a team culture where entry-level doesn’t mean overlooked. We’ve helped people build careers here, and we’d like to do the same for you.
Sidekick Credentials We're Looking For:
High school diploma or equivalent. Some post-secondary education in animal science or veterinary assisting is a plus
Prior veterinary clinic, kennel, or animal care experience preferred, but not required (we train great people)
Comfortable handling dogs and cats of all sizes, temperaments, and energy levels
Ability to assist with restraint, basic treatments, and patient prep under the direction of licensed staff
Strong work ethic, positive attitude, and a team-first mentality
Desire to grow - many of our best technicians started right here
Your Sidekick Duties (What You'll Actually Do):
Assist veterinary technicians and DVMs during exams and procedures
Handle and restrain patients safely and with compassion, fear-free techniques encouraged
Prepare exam rooms, clean and sterilize equipment, and keep the clinic running smoothly
Support client communication with a friendly, professional presence
Help with in-house diagnostics, patient intake, and treatment prep
Willingness to level up over time: we invest in continuing education and career growth for our whole team
