Pumpkin Hill Veterinary Clinic is looking for a Licensed Veterinary Technician who wants to practice veterinary medicine in a place where skilled technicians are valued as professionals and compassionate care still matters. We are an independently owned veterinary practice with more than 30 years of commitment to our patients, clients, community, and team. Our medicine combines strong conventional veterinary care with an openness to integrative and contemporary approaches when they may benefit the individual patient. We are looking for an LVT who wants to think, contribute, learn, teach, and use the skills they worked hard to acquire.
Our ideal candidate values:
Personalized patient care rather than assembly-line medicine A meaningful relationship with clients and their animals Excellent nursing, technical, laboratory, surgical, dental, and patient-monitoring skills Fear-conscious, compassionate handling Teamwork, reliability, initiative, and personal responsibility An open mind toward integrative veterinary philosophies and alternative treatment options The willingness to occasionally go the extra mile when an animal or client truly needs a helping hand We especially welcome experienced technicians who may be tired of highly corporate or production-driven veterinary environments and are looking for a practice where professional judgment, humanity, and common sense still have a place. Full-time and part-time opportunities are available. Compensation, scheduling, responsibilities, and other terms are negotiable and will be based upon experience, abilities, professional interests, and long-term goals. If you are looking for more than simply your next veterinary job—and would like to help shape the next chapter of an established independent practice—we would genuinely like to meet you.
