If you're ready to roll up your sleeves, learn something new every day, and be an essential part of a compassionate, high-performing veterinary team — we’ve got the perfect spot for you.
At Stamford Veterinary Center, we’re looking for a Veterinary Assistant who’s ready to jump in, support our doctors and technicians, and ensure that every pet gets top-tier care and every client feels seen, heard, and supported.

🐶 What You Bring to the Team:
- 1+ years of experience as a veterinary assistant or in a related animal care role preferred
- Comfort working with dogs and cats in a fast-paced environment
- Strong communication skills and a calm, compassionate demeanor
- A willingness to learn, grow, and pitch in wherever needed
- Ability to lift 40+ lbs, work on your feet, and handle a little fur (and maybe some slobber)
