Credentialed Veterinary Technician (CVT)

Certified Veterinary Technician in Eau Claire, WI

Are you a Certified Veterinary Technician looking to join a team that values your skills, supports your growth, and treats each other like family? Look no further than Eau Claire Animal Hospital, where our legacy of compassionate, high‑quality veterinary care has been going strong since 1962.

We are currently seeking a Full‑Time CVT to join our close‑knit team. At our hospital, technicians are highly utilized every day from placing IV catheters and performing blood draws to closely monitoring patients under anesthesia. You'll be empowered to use your full range of skills and contribute meaningfully to patient care.

Work‑Life Balance

Our general schedule is 7:30 AM to 4:30 PM, with a scheduled 1‑hour lunch break each day, because we believe in taking care of our people as much as our patients.

Team Culture

• Our Medical Director started here as a kennel technician, left for vet school, and returned – proof that this place really stays with you!
• Jenna, our hospital manager, has been here for 9 years, after taking over for her mother who led the hospital for 20 years before her.
• One of our doctors and a CSR have each been with us for 26 years, bringing unmatched experience and continuity to our team.

Benefits & Compensation

Our compensation package includes starting pay at $21–$25 per hour. We offer a great benefits package including, but not limited to: health insurance (vision, medical, dental, with company HSA contribution), life and disability insurance, 401(k) with company match, PTO, generous CE, reimbursement for membership dues and license fees, uniform allowance, and more.

Learning Opportunities

• Modern facility: We moved into a new building 15 years ago and recently remodeled to accommodate our growth.
• Optional training in exotics: While our practice includes exotic animals, working with them is not required—but training is available if you're interested!
• Strong technician support: We ensure our CVTs are respected, heard, and valued.

How to Apply

If you're ready to grow your career in a practice where your skills make a difference every single day—and where the people around you feel more like friends than coworkers—we’d love to hear from you!
