Foster Veterinary Assistant
$19.25 per hourHumanePro
The Foster Veterinary Assistant plays a vital role in supporting the health and well-being of animals in the AHS foster program. This position is responsible for providing direct medical care, identifying potential health concerns, and maintaining accurate medical records for animals in foster homes. While working under the guidance—but not always the direct supervision—of the Shelter Veterinarian, the assistant is entrusted with meaningful, hands-on responsibilities that make a daily impact.
As a key member of the Foster Department, the Foster Veterinary Assistant collaborates closely with foster parents, providing support and guidance on medical concerns. This role also assists the Foster Placement Coordinator as needed to help place animals into nurturing foster homes. The ideal candidate is compassionate, communicative, and eager to work in a dynamic, mission-driven environment where teamwork and animal welfare are top priorities.
Schedule: The Foster Veterinary Assistant is a full-time position (40 hours/week) based at the Animal Care Campus. The regular schedule is Tuesday through Saturday, 9:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. During the initial training period (approximately 2 months), the schedule will typically be Monday through Friday, 9:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m.
Compensation & Benefits: The hourly compensation for the Foster Veterinary Assistant is $19.25. AHS is pleased to offer a competitive and comprehensive benefits package to full-time employees that includes: medical, dental, and vision insurance, a Simple IRA plan with up to 3% company match, 18 days of PTO in the first year, paid holidays, pet prescription discounts, and more! Benefits are available after 60 days of employment.
