Compensation: Competitive hourly rate, paid in USD
Schedule: Flexible, with overlap into U.S. Pacific business hours

We are a veterinary practice devoted entirely to pet end-of-life care. Founded by veterinarians with decades of hospice experience, the company set out to fix a problem they kept seeing: the goodbye rarely matched the love families had for their pets. Honor Pet exists to change that.

Families are cared for through in-home euthanasia, a purpose-built Comfort Center with private rooms designed to feel like home, and eco-friendly water cremation (aquamation) that uses far less energy than traditional methods. Every pet stays in our care from the first conversation through aftercare, so families always know who is caring for their pet and what comes next. The company also partners with veterinary clinics and supports families through pre-planning consultations and grief support led by a licensed social worker.

This is a growing, mission-driven, founder-led company. The behind-the-scenes work matters as much as the work at the bedside, because clean billing, accurate records, and reliable operations are part of how families experience care during one of the hardest moments of their lives.

As we grow, the financial and operational engine behind it has outgrown an informal approach. Invoices need to go out accurately and on time, accounts receivable needs consistent follow-up, partner-clinic auto-pay needs to run cleanly, California tax obligations need to be calculated and filed, and leadership needs clear reporting to make decisions. On top of that, our proprietary platform needs ongoing testing as it evolves.

This role brings all of that into one dependable seat. It is the person who owns the numbers and the operational details so the care team and leadership can stay focused on families. It suits someone who works independently, takes full ownership, and finds satisfaction in accuracy and order. Because it is a first-of-its-kind hire on this team, there is real room to shape how the function runs, and a clear path to grow with the company over time.

• Review and verify invoices for accuracy before they go out
• Send client invoices promptly and keep records organized and audit-ready

You are highly organized, proactive, and detail-obsessed. You take ownership of your work and follow through without needing close oversight. You are equally comfortable reconciling an invoice, calculating a tax figure, and stress-testing a new software feature. You communicate clearly in writing and turn messy data into something leadership can act on.

Just as important, you connect with the mission. This is end-of-life and deathcare work for pets and the families who love them, and you bring genuine care to the behind-the-scenes work, knowing that every invoice, report, and interaction supports families during some of their most difficult moments.
