- Animal handling skills and basic restraint skills
- Exceptional patient care, customer service, and multitasking skills
- Ability to prioritize tasks from multiple sources
- Excellent English communication skills, great attitude, and a team spirit
- Ability to lift at least 50 pounds

Shifts last 8 hours, with opening shifts starting at 6:00 am and closing shifts ending at 9:00 pm. Some weekends may be required.
As an Animal Rehabilitation Assistant, you're part of an awesome team dedicated to making animals happy and healthy! Every day is filled with special moments with our furry patients and their families. You learn about caring for special needs pets and dogs of all sizes - feeding them, bathing them, giving them meds, cleaning their wounds and ears, and keeping their nails well-trimmed. Attentively, you help keep our clinic squeaky clean by mopping, sweeping, washing laundry, restocking exam rooms, and cleaning water equipment. You take detailed patient notes, help your veterinary team with acupuncture and physical therapy, and even assist disabled patients to and from their cars as needed. It's a rewarding job where you can learn a lot, and we can't wait to have you on the team!
