Full job description

Position Overview:
As a Kennel Technician, you’ll be responsible for providing top-notch care for our patients and maintaining hospital cleanliness. You’ll be a key part of our veterinary team, and your efforts will help keep everything running smoothly—because let’s face it, dogs can’t walk themselves (but that would be awesome if they could).

Responsibilities:

  • Keep clinic clean, tidy, and fresh-smelling (we promise, it's easier than you think!).
  • Assist with animal handling and basic tasks (don't worry, we’ll teach you how to be a pro!).
  • Take care of potty breaks, food, and water for our patients.
  • Monitor animal behavior and health like the attentive pet detective you are and report any concerns to our veterinary team (because every tail wiggle could be important!).
  • Keep a positive, friendly attitude even when the work gets a little... messy.
  • And let’s not forget—your superpower is helping pets (and their humans) feel at ease when they’re in a new environment! You’ll be the calming presence that helps them feel like they’re on a little vacation, even if they’re just here for a checkup.

Qualifications:

  • Genuine love for animals (the more wagging tails, the better!).
  • Ability to handle pets of all sizes, temperaments, and hair lengths.
  • Must be able to lift, bend, and perform general cleaning duties (yes, cleaning up after pets is a big part of the gig—pet hair is basically a badge of honor!).
  • Excellent communication skills—because you’ll be talking to both animals and humans.
  • No previous experience necessary, but an eagerness to learn is a must!

Why Join Us?

  • Work with a fun, passionate team of animal lovers who make every day feel like a tail-wagging adventure.
  • Competitive pay and opportunities for career growth—maybe you’ll be our next veterinary technician or pet whisperer extraordinaire.
  • A positive work environment where laughter is encouraged, and pets are always the priority.
  • Free pet cuddles (this is definitely the highlight of the job).

How to Apply:
If you’re ready to spend your days surrounded by adorable animals, making a difference in their lives, and enjoying a job where no two days are the same, we want to hear from you!
