  • Assisting veterinarians with medical procedures, surgeries, and treatments
  • Monitoring patient vital signs and administering medications
  • Performing diagnostic tests including bloodwork, radiography, and ultrasound
  • Maintaining accurate and up-to-date medical records
  • Communicating clearly and compassionately with pet owners
  • Collaborating with veterinarians and fellow nurses to ensure the best patient outcomes

What we’re looking for:

  • Certificate IV or Diploma in Veterinary Nursing (or equivalent)
  • Minimum 2 years’ experience as a veterinary nurse (emergency/critical care experience highly regarded)
  • Strong clinical and technical nursing skills
  • Ability to remain calm and focused in high-pressure situations
  • Excellent communication and interpersonal skills
  • Compassionate and empathetic approach to both animals and their owners

What we offer:

  • Ongoing training and development in advanced nursing skills 
  • Discounts on veterinary services and Petbarn retail products for your pet
  • A close knit, supportive, and friendly team culture
  • Access to modern equipment and a purpose-built emergency facility
  • An employer who is focused on well-being and providing staff access to our EAP program
