About The Position

Practice Care-Pets Animal Hospital and Wellness Center was founded in 1987. It was not long before Care-Pets began to grow, and the need for more space became apparent. In October 2001, Care-Pets Animal Hospital moved down the road to its current location at 8800 Old State Road 60. This new facility provided much-needed additional space. The spacious lobby and four exam rooms were designed with the comfort of our patients, clients, and staff in mind. The new facility also provided the necessary space to accommodate all of our specialized diagnostic procedures including a surgery suite, radiology, and lab to name a few. Position Purpose Our practice is welcoming veterinarians of all experience levels to come join our team! Our ideal veterinarian will have an interest in client communication, dentistry and surgery. We enjoy a varied caseload of small animal, avian, and pocket pets and our practice recognizes Fear Free tools and protocols. We love our loyal support staff that consists of both experienced technicians and veterinary assistants who make our work environment fun and laid-back. Our doctors and support team collaborate in a modern, well kept facility with plenty of equipment. We have 4 exam rooms, separate surgery and dental suites, and are equipped with a class IV laser, digital radiography, and dental radiography. If you're ready for a new opportunity with a supportive staff, we'd love to show you our practice!
