Hiring RVTs – Come Make a Difference

Website Kahu Animal Hospital

Independently owned clinic. We believe everyone deserves care.

We’re hiring RVTs who work hard and care deeply.

Kahu Animal Hospital is independently owned, and we are deliberate about what that means. Financial gain is not the primary goal of our ownership. That gives us room to make decisions based on what an individual patient needs and what an individual family can realistically do, rather than on a target someone else set.

Some of our most rewarding cases are the ones where a pet stays in the home with the person who loves them. We work hard to avoid the need for economic euthanasia, and we get creative to find a path forward when the obvious one isn’t available. We act as guardians when animals don’t have one. We aim to provide the best medical care for all animals in society. If that’s the kind of medicine you want to be part of, we should talk.

Who we are:
Our mission is to provide compassionate, accessible and individualized veterinary services, guided by a deep respect for the well-being of all creatures. With every patient and client we welcome, we embody the spirit of Kahu, the steward and protector of all. We are honoured to be the ones entrusted with their safekeeping.
In practice, that looks like this:

  • We work hard.
  • We say yes when most have said, or will say, no.
  • We care deeply about what works for each individual patient.
  • We believe everyone is deserving of care, and we’re here to do our best to make sure they get it.
  • We listen and communicate without judgment, because everyone who walks through our door wants the best for their pet.
  • We have a diverse group of veterinarians and RVTs who genuinely work well together, and we know the reputation we are building in the veterinary world.

Who we’re looking for:
We’re looking for team members who love forming client and patient relationships, who are creative problem solvers, and who want to help set a new standard of accessible care in veterinary medicine.

Kahu is the right clinic for you if:

  • You thrive in an environment where every day is different.
  • You’re passionate about what you contribute as a Registered Veterinary Technician. You want to grow and be challenged.
  • You’re committed to animal welfare, high-quality evidence-based medicine, a low-stress approach, and doing right by patients whose and owners.
  • You recognize that rigidity in practice does not benefit all.
  • You are a problem solver.

And it’s not all about the effort we put in. We truly have fun together. We love celebrating our success stories. We believe every voice matters, and as we enter our third year, we’re excited to keep growing as a collaborative team.

What we offer:
Competitive wages. We will ensure your pay matches your expertise, hard-work and enthusiasm.
A comprehensive benefits package, including a Health Care Spending Account
FIGS and a monthly stipend.
Pet care at cost.
A team that will back you when you advocate for a patient.

How to apply:
Email admin@kahuvets.com with your resume and a brief introduction. Tell us about a case you’re proud of, we’d rather hear that than a cover letter template.
