Modern Animal

At Modern Animal, we know vet med is more than a job-it's a calling. You're not just caring for pets; you're holding space for families, supporting your team, and showing up with heart even when it's hard.

We see you. We built this place for you.

Watch what we mean.

We're looking for team members who want to challenge the norm, expand what's possible, and bring their full selves to a more equitable, inclusive, and human-centered workplace.
What You'll Do
  • Use your full technical skill set to deliver high-quality GP care-including dental procedures, or a willingness to grow in this area.
  • Collaborate with a supportive team that values curiosity, integrity, and communication.
  • Build trust with clients and coworkers through honesty and empathy.
  • Represent Modern Animal as a compassionate partner in your community.
  • Help create the kind of clinic culture you've always wanted to work in.
What You'll Get
  • Comprehensive benefits: medical, dental, vision, and mental health
  • Continuing education support, including an annual allowance that grows with tenure
  • Pet care discounts for your own animals
  • 401(k) with employer match
  • Paid parental leave & PTO
  • Uniforms provided
  • Growth mindset culture with clear career development pathways
You're a Great Fit If You...
  • Have 2+ years of experience as a tech or in a related role
  • Bring strong GP experience-or a passion to grow into it
  • Communicate with empathy and act with integrity
  • Want to be part of a culture that's transforming vet med for the better

The pay range for this position is listed below; however, base pay offered may vary depending on job-related knowledge, skills, and experience. A sign-on bonus and equity grant units may be provided as part of the compensation package, in addition to a full range of medical, financial, and/or other benefits, dependent on the position offered. This information is provided per the California Pay Transparency Act. Base pay information is based on geographic location.

Hourly Range

$22-$26 USD

We believe an equitable and inclusive work environment and a diverse, empowered team are key to achieving our mission. We're not looking for candidates who are "culture fits." We're looking for candidates who can expand our culture and challenge business as usual. We strive to foster an environment where all staff can bring their whole selves to work, by their own definition, and we strive to provide all candidates with an equitable and accessible recruitment process.

We provide equal employment opportunities to all employees and applicants for employment without regard to race, color, religion, sex, national origin, age, disability, sexual orientation, gender identity or expression, veteran status, or genetics.

In addition to federal law requirements, we comply with applicable state and local laws governing nondiscrimination in employment in every location in which the company has facilities.

This policy applies to all terms and conditions of employment, including recruiting, hiring, placement, promotion, termination, layoff, recall, transfer, leaves of absence, compensation and training.

If we can offer accommodations for you in the recruitment process, or if you have feedback on how to make our recruiting more equitable or accessible, please let us know!
