WE'RE HIRING! We've filled our quota for new tech types, but we're still looking for people to help us with weekend boarding. So if you're a high school student interested in working weekends and holidays, or perhaps after school, drop by and fill out an application!

Being a Kennel Attendant (KA) is an entry-level position with no prior experience required--just a love for animals and an interest in caring for them. This is a part-time (PT) gig, but one that opens up all kinds of summer and post-high school possibilities once you prove yourself.

So drop by and fill out an application today! Vet med's crazy but fun and being a Kennel Attendant just might be the hardest job you'll ever love. Find out! 😊

MISSION ACCOMPLISHED! If you happened to drive by our place this afternoon you may have seen half our staff, family members of staff, concerned owners, as well as other members of the community out looking for a pet that slipped its leash and got away from her owner.

But don't panic. This is a public service announcement with a happy ending. "Oh, happy day!" TORI HAS BEEN RECOVERED and is now safely back in her owners' arms, UNHARMED!

So thank you to all who rushed to lend a hand, who broke a sweat, who screeched to a halt, who enticed with treats...whatever you did that made this adventure come to a perfect and happy end.

Hands that care pretty much says it all! Although, caring feet applies here, as well. 😊

To our Amazing Clients:

Due to unforeseen circumstances we have a Momma Dog (Maltese Mix) and her Newborn Puppy (Maltese/Chihuahua mix) in need of foster care. Puppy was born by emergency cesarian section Wednesday and will need to stay with mom for the next 6 weeks. Both are in good health after a harrowing day.

So we are sending out the call for help. If you are able to take on this little family for a few weeks or better yet if you are interested in adopting please call the clinic at (406) 656-6320 and mention this post.

The INDEPENDENCE DAY HOLIDAY or 4th of July is still weeks away but it's never too soon to remind pet owners that your animals likely do not share your enthusiasm for fireworks. In fact every year we see dogs and cats traumatized by the noise and sudden flash of exploding rockets, the repetitive thud of Roman candles, and the shear terror of whistling fiery tops that appear to follow the family dog wherever it goes!

So please keeps pets inside while shooting off fireworks, and alert neighbors so they can do the same. We will be CLOSED all day the 4th of July, but if your pet is especially anxious and your fear they might be adversely affected by the holiday revelry, give us a call ahead of time. Our technicians and receptionist staff can offer some suggestions.

Afterall, we want this to be a safe and fun holiday weekend for everyone!

JUST A HEADS UP! Our phone provider is having technical issues at the moment but is working to restore services as quickly as possible. We are still open, and if you have an appointment there's no reason to not keep it. It's just that if you call, you may get a recorded message that says the line is down. Thank you for your patience.

Bigtime KUDOS to our doctors and staff!!!

Yesterday, June 2, we learned that we again met the standards for recertification by the American Animal Hospital Association (AAHA). Over 20 years ago Caring Hands became the first AAHA-certified hospital in Billings (most aren't!) and has now cleared that bar twice under current ownership.

But this isn't a reflection of our moving to a new facility; although new equipment, new practice software, and new protocols for doing things, plus added staff certainly helped. It was a review of whether or not we practice good medicine, whether pricing is fair and inline with industry standards (rising prices make it harder for locally-owned, non-corporate entities like ours), whether we practice appropriate customer care (for pet owners), and whether or not we do everything in our power to assure the best patient care (for their pets) possible.

In other words, we take seriously our responsibility to assure that, no matter the intervention or procedure, we give your pet the absolute best chance for a speedy recovery. After all, we ARE "Caring Hands--where love and good medicine meet!"😊

HEY, WE'RE SHOPPING FOR BOARDING STAFF!!! Have you ever wanted to try your hand at being a Kennel Attendant, full- (FT) or part-time (PT)? Mornings, evenings, or weekends? Then this might be just the job for you!

While being a KA is an entry level position, you'll certainly get points for any prior boarding or doggie daycare experience. Still, if you have no experience but show promise (i.e., dependability, responsibility, compassion, plus the willingness to work as part of a team) we might be willing to train you. All you have to do is care deeply for animals (cats, dogs, birds, reptiles...anything you might find in a pet store) but a commitment to their receiving the best care available anywhere.

Why? Because people depend on us. We're hoping we might be able to depend on you!

We're scheduling interviews now. So dust off that resume--or drop by the hospital and fill out an application. We won't be offering you a six-figure income--just the promise that it could be the hardest job you ever love! Come see us!

SOMETIMES OUR HEARTS BREAK! On Friday last we said goodbye to Lara. Among those who were carry-over staff when we purchased the hospital from Dr. Kuehn, Lara was one of only three still with us, having started at Caring Hands in 2017.

During that time she worked first as a kennel attendant, then tech assistant, then went on to get her LVT in the Spring of 2024. After that, having mastered new software, she became our pharmacist. Yes, hers was the pleasant voice you encountered when calling about a prescription. She was the one patiently taking however long it took to make sure you understood the med your pet was getting: correct administration, dosage, possible side effects to watch for, and so on. All in the interest of ensuring the best care for your fin, feather, or fur baby.

We will miss her and, frankly, love her too much not to wish her the best! But the rest of our incredible staff--doctors, technicians, and receptionists alike--remain at their posts, ready to assist you in whatever way they can, ready to make going to the vet as painless and stress-free as possible.

Why? Because CARING HANDS VETERINARY HOSPITAL is forever and always "Where love and good medicine meet!" 😊

04/23/2025

Guess what? It's NATIONAL VETERINARY RECEPTIONIST WEEK--all week, from April 20-26, 2025.

And if you know anything about Caring Hands, you know that we are fortunate to have some incredible, incredible humans (Fay, Saige, Tina, sometimes Chris, sometimes Maddi, too often Emmy--and whoever else can wrangle a phone line) staffing our front desk, answering your questions, pulling up your pet's chart, checking you in and checking you out, knowing which doc is best for your particular case.

After all, theirs are the first voices you hear, the first friendly faces you see when you call or step through our doors, and they are bent on supplying you and your pet with the best service and best care possible.

So if you get a moment, send them some love by liking this post. Or better, by thanking them in person and acknowledging the valuable work they do the next time you're in. Your words of encouragement and understanding will be greatly appreciated. P.S. They're also Keepers of the Candy Bowl (but you didn't hear it from me)! 😊
