Job description

Our comprehensive training program is designed to help technicians, whether your background is in general practice or specialty, thrive in the exciting world of veterinary neurology. You’ll learn alongside some of the industry’s best teams and gain hands-on experience that will set your career apart.


Are you a student currently in an RVT/LVT program or interested in enrolling in one? We’d love to hear from you! Apply now and learn how we can help you complete your program, including our generous tuition reimbursement program!


Perks and Benefits:
  • Competitive Pay: Starting at $22/hr (based on experience) + generous sign-on bonus!
  • Recurring Company Bonus Opportunities!
  • No Weekend Hours!
  • Training & Development: Comprehensive training plans
  • Health & Wellness: Medical, Dental, Vision, PTO, and mental health benefits
  • Retirement Planning: 401(k) with company match
  • And Great Extras Like: Scrub allowances, pet insurance, and monthly employee recognition programs, company gatherings, and more!

Why you’ll love your new role:
As a Veterinary Assistant, you’ll play a vital role in delivering exceptional care to our patients. Your responsibilities will include:

  • Learning and mastering neurological anatomy and functions
  • Patient restraint and learning how and why neurologic patients require specific restraint/patient care skills
  • Client education including intake and discharge instructions

But that’s not all! We offer exciting cross-training opportunities with our advanced imaging department, including MRI scans. Imagine being part of a team that uses cutting-edge technology to make a difference in patient outcomes – it’s a game-changer!


Just ask one of our current team members:
“I had heard about BVNS because we often referred patients there. I was very curious about what they did, so the first job I applied to after becoming licensed was BVNS. I had never worked with neurologic cases, but with training and support from many individuals over the years, I am now a Lead Technician, primary trainer, and have never stopped learning! My day-to-day consists of anything from running appointments to performing an MRI to doing anesthesia for brain surgery! The most satisfying part of neurology for me personally, is that we can have an appointment for a dog that cannot urinate, cannot walk, and is painful, perform emergency surgery, and have them walk out the door a day or two later.”
Mika – Registered Veterinary Technician, BVNS

We’re seeking candidates who:

  • Are eager to learn, adapt, and grow in a fast-paced environment
  • Have a strong foundation in veterinary technical skills
  • Bring a great attitude each day and enjoy working with their teammates
