Job Description



At Urgent Pet Care, we know pets are family. When emergencies happen, our team is here to provide lifesaving care and compassionate support. Our Exam Room Assistants are at the heart of that mission — a reassuring voice, a steady hand, and a continuous point of communication helping families through stressful moments.

Imagine that it’s a busy night, and a family rushes in with their dog who suddenly became ill. You meet them at the door, calm their nerves, and help them check in quickly. While working with the medical team to begin care, you keep the family updated, answer their questions, and reassure them that their pet is in good hands. By the end of the night, you’ve not only helped save a life, but you’ve made a frightening experience a little easier for someone who loves their pet dearly.

As a Veterinary Assistant at Urgent Pet Care, you’ll be a guide, a comfort, and an advocate for pets and their people!

  • Monday - Saturday: 8 am - 12 midnight
