-At least 1 year experience in a veterinary setting is preferred.

-Ability to multitask under pressure (especially when I decide I am done with this appointment).

Bonus Points If You:

-Know how to wrap me in a burrito without offending my dignity.

-Can locate the good treats without asking.

-Opportunities to learn and grown in veterinary medicine.

Final Thoughts:

I may hiss. I may glare. I may dramatically act like you've wronged me forever.

And that? That's the highest honor you'll receive.

Now Apply!

I'll be watching.
