Job description

Companion Pet Hospital is thrilled to offer world-class service to companion animals while continually expanding our knowledge and skillsets. Our hospital has been AAHA-accredited for twenty-five years, and we are proud to be certified as a Fear-Free and Cat-Friendly Practice. Our hospital is host to a very experienced team that delivers individualized, respectful services with an emphasis on owner education. Companion Pet Hospital is regularly active in the community that has given so much back to us. We currently partner with several rescue groups to provide physical exams to shelter animals.

No matter the service, we strive to ensure we are offering pets the best possible attention and care they can receive, whether that is preventative care, dentistry, or surgery. We offer personalized health care packages for puppies and kittens, mature adults, and animals in their senior years. Our in-clinic diagnostics consist of laboratory capabilities and digital radiography. Companion Pet Hospital is equipped with the latest technology to perform routine and more complex surgeries. We offer spays and neuters in addition to soft-tissue and orthopedic surgery if necessary. To maximize pet wellness, our team specializes in integrative medicine techniques including laser therapy and acupuncture when pets are not responding to conventional medicine.

Carmel is a historic village in the southern region of New York. An hour north of New York City, Carmel is full of rustic trails, wildlife sanctuaries, and lakes so calm and clear that the reflection is picture-perfect. Centered around a bustling downtown strip, you can tour haunted hotels and dine in local eateries. This charming area is full of historic homes in spacious lots. Many young professionals have fallen in love with the area and choose to make the 60-mile commute to NYC daily. Carmel provides those looking to spread out and relax a healthy life balance with access to all New York City has to offer.
