What You’ll Do

• Welcome clients and patients with a warm, professional approach and create a positive veterinary experience.
• Answer phones, emails, and client questions while directing concerns to the appropriate veterinary team member.
• Triage client concerns and help determine the appropriate next step.
• Schedule appointments to maximize hospital efficiency and maintain a smooth daily flow.

What We’re Looking For

We’re looking for a veterinary receptionist who is compassionate, calm, organized, and comfortable working in a busy veterinary environment. The ideal candidate is a strong communicator, team player, and multitasker who can stay composed while managing competing priorities.

• At least 1 year of veterinary reception or veterinary hospital experience is required.
• Strong communication and computer skills.
• Highly organized with excellent attention to detail.
• Self-motivated and able to work independently while contributing to the team.
• Comfortable discussing veterinary services, medical concerns, and various patient outcomes with clients.
• A genuine interest in veterinary medicine and providing exceptional client service.

You’ll also have opportunities to grow your veterinary knowledge and skillset through virtual training, hands-on learning, and continuing development. Whether you want to become a master of your veterinary receptionist role or are looking toward your next career move, we’ll support your growth along the way.

This is a hands-on veterinary environment, so team members must be comfortable working around animals and being exposed to unpleasant odors and noises, as well as potential bites, scratches, animal waste, and contagious diseases.

If you’re an experienced veterinary receptionist looking for a supportive team, a progressive veterinary hospital, and an opportunity to make a difference for pets and their families, we’d love to meet you!
