This role offers the opportunity to work alongside Board‑Certified Criticalists, Surgeons, Internists, and Emergency Clinicians , supported by a highly skilled, collaborative team of RVTs and veterinary assistants dedicated to outstanding patient care.

Why You’ll Love It Here

You nailed your VTNE, you can place a catheter with your eyes closed and your drug calculations are frankly quite impressive, and honestly, that is a major tail-wagger around here. At Veritas Veterinary Partners, we know exactly what a credentialed veterinary technician brings to the table, the treatment plan and the operating room, and we built a place worthy of all of it. Our techs are the heartbeat of the hospital, the ones clients trust during the scariest moments of their lives and the ones the veterinarians could absolutely not function without, which they will happily admit if you ask them nicely.

You will practice the full scope of your RVT, LVT or CVT credential every single day in a 24-hour specialty and emergency environment that is equal parts science, skill and the occasional cat with very strong opinions about everything. You bring your credential, your clinical instincts and your ability to read a room full of nervous humans and anxious animals without missing a beat. We bring a team that runs in the same pack, a culture built on our CIRCLE values of Compassion, Integrity, Respect, Community, Leadership and Evolution and a mission that makes showing up fur work genuinely worth it. It is a place that doesn't paws, and honestly, neither do you. Come do the work you were born to do.
