Job description

Lead With Purpose at Elite Veterinary Specialists

Are you passionate about animal care and ready to grow your skills in an environment where your contributions truly matter? At Elite Veterinary Specialists, we’re committed to providing compassionate, human-centric pet care that prioritizes both pets and their owners. Our mission is to lead with empathy, uphold integrity, and foster trust through honest, personalized service.

About Us

We’re not just another veterinary practice. We’re a growing veterinary ophthalmology group with clinics in Central Florida (Casselberry and Clermont, The Villages, Winter Haven), and Gaithersburg, Maryland, with more locations coming soon.

We are not a corporate group. We are proudly privately owned, with no corporate or private equity backing, and every decision is made locally by people who know our patients, clients, and team. Our leadership brings years of experience in multi-location specialty hospitals, and we’re building a workplace that values each person’s contributions over the impersonal feel of corporate culture. As we grow, you’ll help shape a practice that is purpose-driven and dedicated to exceptional care, with room to build your skills and your career alongside us.

The Role

As a part-time Veterinary Technician Assistant at our Casselberry clinic, you’ll support our veterinarians and technicians with patient care, exams, treatments, surgeries, and client communication. You’ll be part of challenging and rewarding cases, making a real difference in the lives of our patients and their owners while gaining hands‑on experience in the specialized world of veterinary ophthalmology. This position includes occasional travel to our various Central Florida clinics (including Casselberry, Clermont, The Villages, and Winter Haven) to support our growing ophthalmology team as needed.

What You’ll Do

  • Support veterinarians and technicians during exams, treatments, and surgeries
  • Administer medications under supervision
  • Assist with lab work and inventory
  • Clean and maintain exam rooms, treatment areas, and other hospital spaces
  • Help with reception duties and provide excellent customer service to pet owners

What We’re Looking For

  • High school diploma or equivalent
  • Training or experience in veterinary care, either on the job or formal
  • Ability to lift up to 25 lbs (more with assistance)
  • Strong communication and teamwork skills
  • Willingness to take on a variety of tasks, including housekeeping and reception duties
  • A passion for animal care and enjoyment of a fast‑paced, supportive environment

Our Offer

At Elite Veterinary Specialists, we believe our team members are our greatest asset. We offer a supportive, rewarding work environment with competitive pay and a comprehensive benefits package, including the following (eligibility for some benefits may vary for part‑time positions):

  • Competitive pay
  • 401(k) plan with match
  • Complimentary license renewal and an annual continuing education allowance
  • Generous paid time off
  • Work‑life balance with paid holidays and Sundays off
  • Team‑building events

Ready to Join Something Special?

If you’re passionate about animal care and enjoy working in a fast‑paced, supportive environment, we’d love to hear from you. Join Elite Veterinary Specialists and become a valued member of a team where exceptional patient care is at the heart of everything we do.

We’re growing fast. Come grow with us!
