As an Animal Rehabilitation Assistant, you will be an integral part of a dedicated team focused on enhancing the well-being of animals. Each day is filled with meaningful interactions with our furry patients and their families. Your responsibilities will include caring for special needs pets of various sizes, which involves feeding, bathing, administering medications, and maintaining cleanliness in the clinic. You will also assist with patient documentation, support the veterinary team during acupuncture and physical therapy sessions, and help transport disabled patients as required. This role offers a rewarding experience where you can expand your knowledge and skills in animal care.
