Job Description
Veterinary Technician/Assistant (Part-Time, Path to Full-Time) | Tolland Veterinary Hospital, Tolland, CT | Privately Owned | $18–$25/hr
Tolland Veterinary Hospital is a well-established, privately owned small animal practice. Without corporate metrics driving us, we focus on high-quality medicine, an exceptional client experience, and a low-drama, family-like team where support staff are respected and valued.
We're seeking a skilled, compassionate Veterinary Technician with 1–3+ years of experience. This part-time role comes with a guaranteed pathway to full-time.
What You'll Do
- Patient care: Take histories and vitals, perform venipuncture, place IV catheters, give medications and fluids, use low-stress handling, and monitor hospitalized patients.
- Surgery & dentistry: Prep patients, monitor anesthesia and recovery, perform dental cleanings and radiographs, and keep the surgical suite clean and instruments sterile.
- Diagnostics: Run in-house bloodwork, urinalysis, and cytology, take high-quality radiographs, and keep accurate records in Cornerstone.
- Teamwork: Explain treatment plans and discharge instructions to clients, work closely with doctors and staff, and help train assistants and newer team members.
What We're Looking For
- 1–3+ years as a technician in small animal practice (required)
- CVT preferred, not required
- Proficiency in venipuncture, IV catheters, anesthesia monitoring, and radiology
- Clear communication, empathy, and a calm presence under pressure
- Dependable, detail-oriented, and committed to learning and high standards of care
Benefits
- $18–$25/hr
- 401(k) with company match
- CE allowance
- Generous PTO and holiday pay
- Discounts on care for your own pets
- No overnights or unpredictable on-call hours
