There are a couple of ways to answer this, depending upon exactly what the question means. If you are asking what a veterinary assistant or veterinary techincian does to help a veterinarian as a job, the answer is just about everything that doesn't require breaking the skin - moving patients into and out of examination rooms, prepping the rooms, taking vital signs and patient histories, monitoring animals in the boarding/hospital area, assisting in surgery and imaging, etc. Technicians can also break the skin to draw blood and administer medications prescribed by the veterinarian.

If you are asking what an owner does to help a veterinarian, the answer is keep a close eye on his pets. The owner can pick up on subtle changes that a veterinarian will not, simply because the owner is more familiar with the animal. Also, the owner needs to understand and follow veterinary instruction regarding feeding, exercise and medication administration - if he/she doesn't understand, he/she needs to ask for clarification.

If you are asking what you must do to become a veterinarian, you need to complete a graduate college-level curriculum in veterinary medicine.
