Join a Legacy of Compassionate Care
Arlington Animal Hospital has proudly served the Arlington community and surrounding areas since 1938. Originally located in an older building, we moved to our modern, fully-equipped facility in 2013. As an AAHA-accredited practice, we are dedicated to providing exceptional, personalized care for dogs and cats—many of whom we've treated across generations of pet parents.
We're currently looking to add a full-time Licensed Veterinary Technician (LVT) to our team of five veterinarians and a highly collaborative support staff.
What We're Looking For:
- Must be licensed or license-eligible in Virginia (new grads welcome!)
- Confident in technical skills and ready to support high-quality medical care
- Values open communication, equal treatment, and teamwork
- Enthusiastic about client education and patient advocacy
Hospital Highlights:
- AAHA-accredited since 2013
- 30–40 minute appointments to allow for in-room care and strong client communication
- Surgery performed Tuesdays & Fridays (soft tissue; orthopedics referred out)
- Digital dental radiography on every dental
- In-house Idexx lab equipment
- Avimark practice software
- Mobile diagnostic ultrasound via Butterfly Ultrasound
Work Environment & Culture:
- Everyone is treated equally and respected
- Communication is open, honest, and constructive
- We minimize taking pets "to the back" to prioritize in-room care and comfort
- Longstanding client relationships are the norm—and we often see multiple generations of pet families
Schedule & Benefits:
- 4-day work week with rotating Saturdays (clinic hours listed below)
- Same weekday off every week
- Closed Sundays – no after-hours or on-call responsibilities
- Competitive compensation based on experience
- Supportive onboarding and mentorship, especially for new grads
Hospital Hours:
- Monday: 8am – 8pm
- Tuesday – Friday: 8am – 6pm
- Saturday: 8am – 2pm
- Sunday: Closed
If you're passionate about veterinary medicine and want to work in a supportive, client-centered environment, we'd love to hear from you!
Your Impact as a Licensed Veterinary Technician
Note: The Licensed Veterinary Technician title is used in various states based on state-specific licensing and credentialing requirements. Responsibilities may vary depending on the hospital and/or state and will be outlined by the state's Veterinary Practice Act and/or the responsible veterinarian, where applicable.

- Be a Leader and Mentor: You'll guide and support the medical team, ensuring an efficient workflow while mentoring others to help them grow their skills and careers.
- Partner with Clients: You'll be a key point of contact for pet owners, educating them on treatments, reviewing medical records, and confidently answering their questions.
- Contribute to a Positive Culture: You'll play an active role in training, providing feedback, and maintaining the high standards of our hospital environment.
What You'll Bring to the Team
- Graduate of an AVMA-accredited Veterinary Technician program.
- A current state veterinary technician license (LVT) in good standing.
- Proficiency in a range of technical skills, including nursing, surgery, dental care, radiology, and laboratory procedures.
- A calm and efficient approach, especially in fast-paced or stressful situations.
- Strong communication skills and a passion for working collaboratively.
- One year of experience in the veterinary industry is preferred.
