We’re a privately owned small animal veterinary clinic in North Kanata looking for a compassionate and enthusiastic Registered Veterinary Technician (RVT) to join our growing team.

Our clinic values exceptional patient care, strong client relationships and a supportive workplace. We are committed to creating a positive, collaborative environment where team members feel valued, respected, and empowered to use their skills. We strive to provide high-quality medicine while maintaining a healthy work-life balance, because we know our team does their best work when they have time to enjoy life outside the clinic.

Whether you’re an experienced RVT or a recent graduate eager to learn, we look forward to hearing from you.

As an RVT, you’ll play an essential role in delivering exceptional care to our canine and feline patients by:

  • Assisting veterinarians with examinations, surgery, dentistry, and medical procedures
  • Administering anesthesia and monitoring patients throughout procedures
  • Collecting laboratory samples and performing in-house diagnostics
  • Taking diagnostic radiographs
  • Providing compassionate nursing care for hospitalized patients
  • Educating clients on preventive care, nutrition, medications, and treatment plans
  • Maintaining accurate medical records
  • Working collaboratively with our veterinary team to provide outstanding patient and client care
  • Supporting a clean, organized, and efficient hospital environment

 

What We’re Looking For:

  • Registered Veterinary Technician (RVT) in good standing in Ontario
  • A positive attitude and a compassionate, patient-focused approach
  • Strong communication and interpersonal skills
  • Excellent organizational and time management abilities
  • A team player who enjoys working in a collaborative environment
  • Surgical and dental experience is an asset but not required

 

What We Offer:

  • Competitive compensation
  • Continuing education allowance
  • Paid OAVT membership dues
  • Annual scrub allowance
  • Employee pet care discount
  • A supportive, respectful, and friendly team culture
  • A strong commitment to work-life balance

 

Why Join Us?

As a privately owned practice, we have the flexibility to focus on what matters most—our patients, our clients, and our team. We value open communication, kindness, and continuous learning, and we believe every team member plays an important role in our clinic’s success.

If you’re looking for a welcoming clinic where your skills are appreciated and your work-life balance is respected, please reach out.
