The Opportunity

Are you an experienced ER/ICU veterinary technician who likes the medicine but doesn't necessarily want to sign your life away to a full-time schedule?

We’re looking for an experienced Colorado RVT to provide overnight relief coverage for our busy Emergency & Critical Care service .

This is a great opportunity for someone who wants high-level specialty medicine, excellent pay, and a predictable short-term commitment without committing to a permanent schedule.

Coverage needed October–December , with flexibility to take as many or as few shifts as your schedule allows.

Compensation

$60/hour

Plus:

$100 bonus for every 3 shifts worked

Yes, that means we will actually pay you extra for helping us keep the ER/ICU running smoothly. We like you already.

What You'll Be Doing

You'll work alongside our ER/ICU doctors and specialty team caring for hospitalized and emergency patients, including:

ICU patient monitoring and treatment

Emergency and critical care nursing

Excellent attention to detail

Reliable, accountable, and able to handle a busy overnight environment

Good sense of humor is strongly encouraged

You should be comfortable with:
