Job DescriptionJob Description


We are a group of enthusiastic pet heroes who go beyond expectations at providing a personalized experience for all patient-guests and their parents.

Our quality of care and diverse specialty offerings makes VRCCO's team the leaders in advanced pet care for Central Oregon. To improve the experience for our patients and help support our amazing team we have created a purpose built veterinary hospital campus, with an over 26,000 sq. ft. facility to serve our community. Our hospital has all the advanced diagnostic and therapeutic capabilities (MRI, CT, Fluoroscopy, chemotherapy etc…) and a campus-like feeling for employees and clients with food trucks, childcare for staff, beer garden, and an upstairs balcony.


At the Veterinary Referral Center of Central Oregon, we believe that teamwork, superior patient and client care, education, and fun are the secret to a wonderful career. From day one we have known our staff has to come first to make this happen. We are pretty sure we are the first ever, and perhaps still the only, Veterinary Specialty Hospital to be Great Place To Work Certified (https://www.greatplacetowork.com/certified-company/7041336).
