Partner Veterinary Emergency and Specialty Center (PVESC) is a women-founded and led business committed to reimagining a profession that we love. Our leadership team has a reputation for building and retaining happy and healthy teams and founded Partner Veterinary to give more professionals the optimal environment to make a difference in the field and for pet families.

Do you want to grow and advance your skills as an LVT? Partner Veterinary has you covered!

Our Training Department has an impressive track record of helping Technicians achieve advanced certifications such as a VTS, CVPP, and/or CVRP.

To set you up for success from day 1, we gift you a wellness week of PTO after 90 days in your position. This includes 30-40 hours of extra time off dependent upon your weekly schedule. Partner Veterinary recognizes the demand that is on LVTs, and this wellness week allows you to rest and relax with a week off after your initial 90 days.
