Pet Vet Family Pet Care Center

Job Description

Job Description

???? Are you passionate about providing exceptional care for pets and building lasting relationships with their humans?

Conveniently located off I-94 and U.S. 131 in Kalamazoo, Pet Vet Family Pet Care Center is looking for a friendly, energetic, and organized Licensed Veterinary Technician (LVT) to join our close-knit, community-focused team.

???? Why Kalamazoo?

Located just 50 miles from Lake Michigan, Kalamazoo blends small-town charm with big-city amenities. The city offers:

  • An up-and-coming arts and culture scene
  • Year-round festivals and community events
  • 33 city parks with scenic hiking and biking trails
  • A vibrant nightlife with a lower cost of living than many large cities

Love craft beer? Bell's Brewery — a local favorite with a national reputation — got its start right here.

Kalamazoo is an affordable, energetic, and welcoming place to call home.

???? What You'll Do

As a key member of our team, you'll play an essential role in supporting our veterinarians and delivering top-tier care. Your responsibilities will include:

  • Perform patient triage and obtain accurate medical histories
  • Assist veterinarians during examinations, diagnostics, and surgical procedures
  • Induce, monitor, and recover patients under anesthesia
  • Perform dental cleanings, radiographs, and oral charting
  • Collect and process laboratory samples (blood, urine, fecal, cytology)
  • Place IV catheters and administer medications, fluids, and treatments as prescribed
  • Take and develop diagnostic radiographs
  • Monitor hospitalized patients and provide nursing care
  • Educate clients on treatment plans, medications, nutrition, and preventative care
  • Maintain accurate and thorough medical records
  • Ensure proper sterilization of surgical instruments and maintain a clean clinical environment
  • Assist with inventory management and stocking of medical supplies
  • Follow all state regulations, hospital protocols, and safety standards

If you thrive in a fast-paced environment surrounded by wagging tails, purring patients, and a supportive team, you'll fit right in

???? Who We're Looking For
  • Completion of an accredited Veterinary Technician program (Associate Degree)
  • Successful completion of the VTNE and current Michigan LVT license
  • Genuine passion for patient care and client education
  • Strong interpersonal and communication skills
  • Professional demeanor with a team-first attitude
  • Prior experience in the veterinary field
✨  What We Offer
  • A supportive, team-oriented work culture
  • Competitive pay and comprehensive benefits package
  • Opportunities for continued education and career growth
  • A fun, compassionate team deeply rooted in the Kalamazoo community

Ready to Make a Difference in Kalamazoo?

We'd love to meet you! If you're ready to grow your career with a team that values both your skills and your heart, apply today and become part of the Pet Vet family. ????????
