Job description

Description

Join a veterinary hospital where your voice matters, your growth is expected, and your teammates genuinely want to help you become the best technician you can be.

At United Vision Pet Partners, we believe exceptional medicine begins with exceptional people. As a privately owned specialty and urgent care hospital, we've built a culture centered around collaboration, continual learning, accountability, and compassion for both our patients and one another.

Here you'll work shoulder-to-shoulder with veterinarians who enjoy teaching. Every team member has the opportunity to contribute to how we improve patient care, workflows, and the client experience.

The technician who thrives here enjoys staying busy, solving problems, and jumping in wherever patients or teammates need support. They're confident working independently but know that great medicine happens through collaboration. They're eager to continue learning and take pride in providing exceptional care, whether monitoring anesthesia, supporting an emergency case, educating clients, or mentoring fellow team members.

Our goal is to provide the finest veterinary care to the pets we treat and to extend kindness and consideration to their owners. Each and every person, from doctors to kennel technicians will perform their duties in a conscientious, compassionate and professional manner. Working at United Vision Pet Partners will provide the opportunity to further your skills in all aspects of veterinary medicine. Our friendly environment encourages teamwork and continuing education.

Training will be provided for all aspects of this position, but prior urgent care/ specialty experience is preferred.
