Registered Veterinary Technician (RVT/LVT)

Pikes Peak Veterinary Clinic is not a corporate acquisition. We are not directed by distant shareholders. We are a locally owned, independent veterinary hospital that has served Colorado Springs for over 50 years. Our reputation was built the traditional way—by practicing solid medicine, treating clients honestly, and respecting the professionals who make it all work. If you are a Registered Veterinary Technician who wants to be utilized as a medical professional—not an assistant with a title—this is a career opportunity worth your attention.

Who We Are:

For five decades, our clinic has provided comprehensive medical, surgical, and dental care to dogs, cats, rabbits, small mammals, reptiles, and backyard fowl. We believe in complete, compassionate care for both patients and the people who love them. Because we are independently owned, decisions are made here—by the people practicing medicine here. We rely on experience, evidence, collaboration, and common sense. We do not practice by script. We do not bury good ideas under layers of approval. If something can be improved, we improve it. Our culture is professional, respectful, and intentionally drama-free. We work hard. We support one another. We value direct communication and mature teamwork. This Is a Career, Not Just a
