Waterloo, Canada Parkdale Animal Hospital Full time

Welcome to not your average veterinary clinic

Do you want to enjoy coming to work again? Do you want to work in an environment where you are supported and encouraged to grow? Do you want to learn in an environment where it’s safe to fail?

Yup, I know what you’re thinking another job ad but I’m going to tell you why ours is different.

Here at Parkdale Animal Hospital, we create an environment that you will flourish in. A supportive environment that will help you in any and every way; an environment where it’s safe to fail. Veterinary medicine is always changing, and we want to inspire that growth in our team. We want to help you find your passion again and nurture it - like that bottle fed kitten that becomes a thriving, confident adult cat

We are looking for a part-time Veterinary Assistant to add to our team. We have worked very hard to create a culture here at Parkdale Animal Hospital that is inclusive, has an attitude of gratitude, a partnership of accountability and where everything is collaborative (and we always have treats - especially success cookies). It is for these reasons that we are looking for a very specific individual to join our team. We are looking for someone that believes in treating both ends of the leash - veterinary medicine is just as much about the people as it is the animals. Afterall, the dogs don’t walk themselves in We need someone who is confident in themselves and their skills; that isn’t afraid to ask the WHYs and HOWs. We are looking for someone who is open minded and who’s answer to WHY isn’t “Because that’s the way we’ve always done it” *insert angry noises here*. We want someone who wants to come to work, who wants to work with an amazing team of skilled and passionate people.

Responsibilities include but are not limited to:

- patient appointment admissions and discharges
- assisting the veterinarian/RVT in appointments
- animal restraint
- answering phones and triaging appointments
- billing and invoicing
- being an advocate for the pet

*Other responsibilities may be added depending on your skill level (for example assisting in surgery)

We are professional yet playful. We are open and honest. We welcome (and encourage) radical candour. We love hard and play hard. We stand behind each other 100% (yes even the management team and practice owner will have your back).

The nitty gritty details:

- Competitive wages ($16-21 depending on experience)
- Food, medications, lab work at cost (after probation period)
- Paid uniforms
- Personal benefits (medication, dental, etc.)
- RRSP contributions
- Profit sharing

We are excited to show you what we have to offer. Everything in this ad is not smoke and mirrors - this is us, this is Parkdale. Let us prove it to you.
