If you get down to the nitty gritty of it, we love to: work hard but make a lot of dad jokes in the process. We celebrate work anniversaries with cake and our clients love to send us Crumbl cookies. There are more than 2 Swifties on our team. There is a Starbucks opening 2 minutes from our hospital. We love what we do and we also want to go home at the end of the day. Law requires 30 minute lunch breaks but we get 45 minutes. Our goal is to grow to the point that people can work shifts that they like. 3 12's? We will get there v. soon. 4 10's? Got it! 5 8's? Yep! We love puppies and kittens, just like the rest of them but we also love when we make a difference in someone's life. We want to put a good "ripple" into the world (as the boss says). We offer a payment plan which can sometimes be cumbersome but also helps people who REALLY love their pets and are in a tight spot. We also have a non profit so that we can help clients in need, and we foster kittens from local shelters and rescues. We have the friendliest, most bubbly veterinary receptionist you've ever met and we legitimately want to make a difference in the world. If you think you'd like to be our friend, please apply! Join our team and contribute to the well-being of our furry patients while working in a supportive environment that values your dedication and expertise.
