Job Description

Overview

Veterinary Assistant | Oregon, Wisconsin

You're more than a pair of hands. You're the calm voice a nervous patient needs, the extra set of eyes that catches what's easy to miss, and the reason our Hunt.Vet certified DVMs can trust that working dogs get the same steady care as every other patient. We're looking for a Veterinary Assistant who wants to grow into that role at Country View Veterinary Service , one skill at a time.

About the Practice

We've been part of the Oregon, Wisconsin and greater Madison community since 1999, and we've built our team the same way we build our patient care: from the ground up. Our AAHA accreditation puts us among the roughly 15% of practices nationally that meet that standard, and we work to keep earning it every year as medicine advances. As a certified Cat Friendly Practice, we use feline-specific handling and housing, so our whiskered patients (and the people who love them) leave calmer than they arrived. Every patient gets the same low-stress, Fear Free-minded approach: we read their body language and meet them where they are instead of pushing through. Two of our own DVMs are Hunt.Vet certified, going the extra mile for the working dogs in the Dane County hunting community, dogs with jobs hold a special place in our hearts. And if you're pre-vet, pre-tech, or still figuring out where you fit in this field, our six DVMs genuinely love to teach, and we'll help you get there.

What You'll Help Make Possible
  • Calm, low-stress visits for nervous patients, thanks to careful handling and clear communication
  • Accurate records and diagnostics that help our veterinary team make fast, confident decisions
  • Smooth appointment turnover that keeps our whole hospital's day on track
  • Specialized, informed care for the working dogs in our local hunting community
