We're looking for an experienced Senior Veterinary Technician who is confident, compassionate, and ready to become an important part of a close-knit team that values professionalism, kindness, and continuous learning.

• Preparing surgical patients and maintaining the highest standards of patient safety

• Educating clients with compassion and confidence

• Maintaining thorough and accurate medical records

• Helping mentor technicians and assistants while fostering a collaborative team environment

• Ensuring every patient receives gentle, compassionate, fear-conscious care

Who You Are

• Enjoys teaching, mentoring, and helping teammates succeed

• Communicates professionally with clients and coworkers

• Remains calm, organized, and adaptable during busy days

• Competitive pay based on experience and skill
