  • Closely monitor patients before, during, and after surgery to ensure safe recoveries.
  • Keep accurate, detailed medical records for every patient in your care.
  • Guide and educate pet parents on everything from nutrition to preventative wellness.
  • Maintain a clean, organized, and safe clinic environment.
  • Provide gentle, empathetic care and comfort to animals throughout their stay.

What You Bring:

  • 2 – 5 years of experience as an RVT.
  • Knowledge of lab procedures and diagnostic testing.
  • Excellent communication skills to build trust with both teammates and clients.
  • The ability to stay cool under pressure in a fast-paced setting.
  • Above all, a deep love for animals and a commitment to their health and happiness.
