Job Description

Join Our Growing Team at Swift Creek Animal Hospital - Veterinary Assistant

  • ???? Location : Raleigh, NC 27606
  • ???? Schedule : Full-Time | Monday–Friday 7 : 30 AM–3 : 00 PM + 1 Saturday / month (8 AM–12 PM)
  • ???? Pay Range : $18.00–$20.00 / hour

At Swift Creek Animal Hospital , we’ve been proudly caring for pets in the Raleigh community for over three decades. With 4.5 talented doctors, daily surgeries, and a team-oriented culture, we’re here to deliver excellent medicine while keeping things approachable and supportive.

We’re currently seeking an experienced Veterinary Assistant to join our team. This is a backfill role —our seasoned VA of 10 years is moving on, and we need someone who can confidently step in, support the team, and help guide some of our newer assistants as they gain experience. If you’re skilled, detail-oriented, and thrive in a collaborative environment, this could be your next great fit. Bonus points if you love pocket pets, our doctors occasionally see them, and they bring a fun change of pace!

The Perks, The People, The Purpose

✨ Diverse Caseload : From routine check-ups to surgeries and the occasional exotic case, no two days are the same.

✨ Team Spirit : Our crew works hard, supports each other, and even hangs out outside of work.

✨ Approachable Leadership : Our DVMs collaborate daily, share insights, and value every team member’s contribution.

✨ Professional Extras : Employee discounts for your pets and an annual scrub allotment.

What You Bring to the Table

  • 3+ years of veterinary assistant experience (must-have)
  • Skilled in canine / feline restraint, radiographs, blood draws, in-house lab testing, vaccines, and medication administration
  • Confident monitoring patients under sedation and anesthesia.
  • Strong client communication skills
  • Experience with veterinary software (Avimark a plus!)
  • Detail-oriented, dependable, and able to multitask in a fast-paced environment
  • Willingness to pitch in on occasional afternoon shifts if needed
  • Your Role in the Pack

  • Assist doctors with exams, treatments, surgeries, and procedures
  • Perform blood draws, administer vaccines / medications, and run lab tests
  • Monitor patients safely under sedation and maintain accurate records
  • Communicate clearly and compassionately with clients
  • Support and mentor newer assistants as they grow their skills
  • Help keep exam rooms, treatment areas, and equipment organized and ready for action
  • Why Joining Our Community is the Way to Go

    Swift Creek Animal Hospital is proud to be part of the Community Veterinary Partners (CVP) network. That means we get to stay true to our local culture, unique team, and high-quality care , while benefiting from the resources, growth opportunities, and stability of a larger veterinary community.
