Date Posted Student Description
March 8, 2010 Are you looking for an experienced enthusiastic Veterinary Assistant? I am looking for full time employment available immediately in the Guelph/Kitchener/Waterloo and surrounding areas. I have 7.5 years of work experience in various veterinary practices, working with dogs, cats, avian/exotics and horses. I have applied to the Ontario Veterinary College for September 2010. I am eager, willing to learn and a good team member. I also have many veterinary technician skills and have completed my B.Sc. in Biology. Resume is available upon request. Please feel free to contact if you have any further questions vet.assistant1@gmail.com
March 4, 2010 As a first year DVM student, I am very eager to put my new-found knowledge and skills into practice. I am looking for opportunities within the Guelph area for the summer season, and possibly arrange some work during the school year, in either companion animal, mixed or equine veterinary fields. My previous experiences consisted of many years at several small animal clinics and have many skills to offer in the care of dogs, cats and ferrets, including restraint techniques, medication applications and some laboratory processing. I have also assisted in basic husbandry and health checks of horses in competitive trail riding. Additionally, I have experiences in many wildlife species from squirrels to snapping turtles to swans, and I am interested in expanding my skill-set into other exotic companion animals. I believe that I will make a valuable addition to a team as I am always willing to learn beyond my role and help out wherever and whenever I can. If interested in a resume or just to chat, please contact me, Anna Zaborowski, at azaborow@uoguelph.ca
