Licensed Veterinary Technician

Licensed Veterinary Technician

Sprayberry Animal Hospital is seeking a Licensed Veterinary Technician (LVT) with advanced clinical skills and a passion for surgical patient care and anesthesia. This is a high-impact, non-entry-level role designed for a technician who is confident, efficient, and thrives in a fast-paced surgical environment.

Why This Role Stands Out

• Surgery-Focused Position – Spend the majority of your time in surgical and anesthesia support
• No Weekends – Predictable weekday schedule supporting work-life balance
• Advanced Clinical Exposure – Work closely with experienced DVMs in a high-quality medical setting
• Established, High-Performing Practice – Busy small animal hospital with strong community reputation
• Backed by Innovetive Petcare – Growth opportunities, resources, and long-term career pathways

As part of the Innovetive Petcare network, we offer the close-knit feel of a local practice with the stability, resources, and growth opportunities of a larger organization.

  • Administer medications via oral, subcutaneous, and intravenous routes
  • Accurately document treatments, anesthesia logs, and patient records
• Patient Care & Advocacy
  • Provide attentive monitoring of pre-op and post-op patients
  • Recognize and respond to changes in patient condition quickly and effectively
  • Deliver compassionate, low-stress handling and care
• Collaboration & Communication
  • Partner closely with veterinarians and support staff to ensure optimal patient outcomes
  • Communicate clearly with clients regarding post-operative care and discharge instructions
  • Maintain a clean, organized, and well-stocked treatment and surgical environment

What We're Looking For:

• Active Licensed Veterinary Technician (LVT) in the state of Georgia
• Graduate of an AVMA-accredited Veterinary Technology program
• Successful completion of the VTNE
• 2+ years of hands-on clinical experience , with a strong emphasis on surgery and anesthesia

What Sets You Apart

• Advanced proficiency in anesthesia monitoring and surgical support
• Confidence working independently in a high-volume surgical setting
• Strong attention to detail and commitment to patient safety and gold-standard care
• Ability to remain calm, focused, and efficient under pressure
• Passion for continuous learning and clinical excellence
