Position at Owings Mills Veterinary Center


Veterinary Technician
Owings Mills Veterinary Center - Owings Mills, MD

If you're the kind of technician who actually wants to use your skills (not just hold patients and fill rooms), keep reading.

At Owings Mills Veterinary Center, our technicians are hands-on, trusted, and genuinely valued. This is a place where you'll be encouraged to think, act, and grow-not just follow directions. We're a full-service hospital with a strong, collaborative team that enjoys what we do and supports each other along the way.

We're looking for an experienced veterinary technician who enjoys practicing high-quality medicine, building client relationships, and being part of a team that works hard without taking itself too seriously.
What You'll Be Doing

You'll be right in the middle of patient care, not on the sidelines:

• Provide compassionate, thorough nursing care to patients
• Perform technical skills including venipuncture, catheter placement, diagnostic sample collection, and radiography
• Assist with dentistry, including dental radiographs and cleanings
• Support appointments-from preventive care to sick visits-with efficiency and attention to detail
• Monitor anesthesia and assist in surgical procedures, including pre- and post-operative care
• Educate clients and advocate for your patients
• Maintain accurate and complete medical records
• Help guide and support newer team members as you grow in your role

What We're Looking For

• At least 2 years of experience in a small animal clinical setting
• Strong technical skills and confidence in your abilities
• Solid understanding of medical math (dosing, CRIs, conversions, etc.)
• Clear, friendly communication with both clients and teammates
• Ability to multitask, stay organized, and keep a level head in a busy environment
• A positive, team-oriented attitude (no egos, please)
• Physical ability to lift/restrain pets and be on your feet throughout the day
