Ignite your excitement in providing exceptional care for pets and their owners! 

We would love to have you join our multi-doctor team at Northeast Animal Hospital and Downtown St. Pete Vet Clinic, sister practices in two of the most sought-after locations in St. Pet! We strive for a fun, friendly atmosphere where everyone, including the pets, feels relaxed. Our team is the heart of our practice and is the reason we are able to offer the highest level of service to our clients. Our growth has allowed us to offer state-of-the-art technology while still maintaining the local business feel that makes St. Pete so great. 

For over 40 years, Northeast Animal Hospital and Downtown St. Pete Vet Clinic have been Devoted to Pets and Their People. It's more than a tagline- our mission and client experience have allowed us to attract the highest quality, skilled veterinarians, technicians, and support staff, leading us to open a second downtown practice nearly 13 years ago. Between the two practices, we offer routine vet care, advanced diagnostics for sick pets, as well as surgical and dental care, so a diverse, interesting day at the office is guaranteed! 

Along with everything being a veterinary technician entails, we are looking for some key skills that will help you thrive in this new position, such as: 

• The ability to go over and beyond being a "people" person. A positive, upbeat personality that can understand a client's fears and respond with compassion is vital. 

• A social media-minded outlook is a huge plus! Someone who can see the potential for a funny or inspiring post, snap a photo, and forward it to the appropriate staff member would be a great asset. 

• The ability to handle the physically demanding job of lifting and holding animals securely, as well as being resolved that you will be getting your hands (and scrubs) dirty. But rest assured that you'll be rewarded with puppy kisses, tail wags, purrs, and much, much more. 

• The ability to multi-task with grace and compassion during busy and stressful conditions. 

• The willingness to work weekends on an alternating schedule with other techs on a four day work week schedule. 

Why you should choose the Northeast Animal Hospital & Downtown St Pete Vet Clinic team: 

• Opportunity to learn, grow, and develop in a career you truly love. 

• Outstanding team of dedicated coworkers who want to see each other succeed. 

We are Devoted to Pets and Their People—and OUR people. We believe happy employees make happy workplaces.
