Encore Vet Group

Overview

Full-Time Veterinary Assistant | Cincinnati Veterinary Surgical and Wellness Center Cincinnati, OH

Care for Animals. Support Your Team. Make a Difference Every Single Shift.

Here is what a shift as a Veterinary Assistant at Cincinnati Veterinary Surgical and Wellness Center actually looks like. You start by prepping a patient for surgery, jump in to help restrain during an exam, walk a worried pet parent through their dog's discharge instructions, and somehow make it all look easy. You are not just support staff here. You are the glue that holds the whole hospital together, and we know it.

What You Will Be Doing
  • Maintaining accurate medical records and helping answer client questions
  • Prepping patients for exams and surgeries
  • Administering medications as directed
  • Assisting with lab testing including blood, fecal, and urine
  • Cleaning and sanitizing surgical tools, kennels, and exam areas
  • Monitoring post-op patients and reporting any changes
  • Safely restraining patients during exams and procedures
  • Helping educate pet parents on medications, treatments, and care
  • Partnering with credentialed technicians and Veterinarians to deliver top-tier care
Schedule
  • Full-time with flexible shifts
  • Rotating weekends
  • Holiday availability needed
What We Are Looking For
  • 1 to 2 years of experience in a veterinary hospital or similar setting
  • A calm, steady presence with animals and the people who love them
  • Strong communication skills with both clients and teammates
  • Organized, detail-oriented, and adaptable when the day throws you a curveball
  • Cool under pressure and comfortable in a busy hospital environment
  • Eager to keep learning and growing in your role
  • A team-first mindset and the willingness to pitch in wherever you are needed
Our Culture

We take pride in the high-quality care we provide and in the lasting relationships we build with pets and their people throughout our community. We believe in a supportive, collaborative environment where teamwork comes first, egos stay at the door, and your professional growth is always encouraged.

Compensation

Starting at $16.50+/hr. Final compensation will be commensurate with experience.


The Perks
  • Competitive pay, based on experience
  • Free virtual mental health for your household (ages 13+)
  • Medical, dental, vision, and life insurance
  • Generous CE allowance + paid CE time
  • Uniform allowance
  • Pet care discounts for your personal pets
  • PTO, floating holidays, parental leave, and military leave
  • A robust Employee Assistance Program - from finances to wellness and everything in between
  • Access to Encore Vet Group's library of training, CE, and career development resources
  • A 401(k) with up to 5% company match.
