Hello! My name is Ruth, and I am currently seeking an opportunity as a Veterinary Assistant or Veterinary Receptionist with an animal hospital or veterinary clinic.
I have hands-on experience in veterinary environments through externships at VCA Mountain View Animal Hospital and Squaw Peak Animal Hospital, as well as professional experience at South Mountain Vet Clinic. I have also been volunteering with Cats World Rescue since July 2026, where I continue to gain experience working with and caring for animals.
My veterinary experience includes assisting with animal handling and restraint, maintaining clean and organized treatment areas, supporting veterinary staff, communicating professionally with clients, and helping provide compassionate care to animals. I am comfortable working in a busy environment and understand the importance of teamwork, professionalism, cleanliness, and attention to detail in a veterinary setting.
I am especially interested in finding a clinic where I can continue developing my skills, contribute to a supportive team, and build a long-term career in the veterinary field. I am open to Veterinary Assistant, Veterinary Receptionist, or similar entry-level veterinary opportunities.
