Join Victoria's Leading Rabbit & Bird Veterinary Team
Integrity. Compassion. Learning. Patient Advocacy. Community.
At The Rabbit and Bird Doctors, we provide exceptional care to Victoria's rabbits, birds, guinea pigs, rats and other small herbivores. We're passionate about patient welfare, client education and supporting local rescue organisations, and we're searching for a dedicated Veterinary Nurse or Veterinary Technician to join our exceptional team.
If you thrive in a fast-paced environment, love learning and enjoy working alongside a team that genuinely cares about each other, we'd love to hear from you.
Why You'll Love Working With Us
Work With Fascinating Patients Every Day. Where no two days are the same. Our team manages a diverse and complex caseload, providing opportunities to develop skills that many nurses never encounter in general practice. You'll be encouraged to utilise your nursing abilities to their full potential and play an important role in patient care.
Grow Your Skills and Career
Whether you're already experienced with rabbits and birds or looking to expand your knowledge, you'll be supported by a team that values continuous learning and professional development. We actively encourage our nurses to grow, develop, and pursue their interests.
Be Part of a Truly Supportive Team

you'll fit right in.
Enjoy a Unique Clinic Environment
Despite our busy caseload, our patients help create a calm and rewarding atmosphere that's quite different from a typical general practice clinic. It's one of the many reasons our team loves what they do.

- 72 hours per fortnight
- A 4-day work week (4 x 9-hour shifts)

- Regular team social events
- On-site coffee caravan for your daily caffeine fix
