Job Description

Job Description

$18-$21

Not Looking for Just Another Assistant. Looking for a Teammate.

Some clinics expect assistants to simply follow directions.

We don't.

At CityVet Lone Tree, our assistants are trusted members of the medical team. We value initiative, critical thinking, kindness, and people who take ownership of their work. We're searching for an experienced Veterinary Assistant who loves medicine, loves people, and wants to be part of building something exceptional.

• Assist doctors during appointments
• Collect patient histories
• Obtain diagnostic samples
• Monitor hospitalized patients
• Prepare surgical and dental patients
• Support anesthesia procedures
• Educate clients
• Help create an outstanding client experience

What We Value

We can teach skills.

We can't teach character.

We're looking for someone who:

• Pays attention to details
• Communicates honestly
• Takes accountability
• Wants to learn every day
• Stays calm under pressure
• Supports coworkers
• Treats every patient like their own

Why CityVet Lone Tree?

Our team believes medicine should be collaborative.

You'll work with experienced doctors who appreciate your input, encourage learning, and want you to grow, not stay in the same position forever.

We invest in our people because we believe great medicine starts with great teams
