About this role
American Veterinary Group's Chapel Hill urgent care clinic is looking for a Senior Veterinary Assistant to work part-time shifts in a modern, paperless facility focused on after-hours care for dogs and cats. You'd handle the full range of clinical tasks—phlebotomy, catheter placement, lab work, patient monitoring, and restraint—while supporting common urgent cases like wounds, infections, and gastrointestinal issues. The role also involves client education, facility upkeep, and helping lead a small team in a fast-paced environment.
This position suits someone with prior hospital veterinary experience and solid animal handling skills who thrives on variety and doesn't mind irregular hours (evenings, weekends, holidays). You'll need to be comfortable lifting 40 pounds regularly and working in-person every shift. The clinic offers 401(k) matching, discounted vet care, a scrub allowance, and professional development opportunities, though this is part-time work without the full benefits structure of a full-time role.
