View Licensed Veterinary Technician Position

At River Rock Animal Hospital, we believe quality veterinary care is about more than just a diploma on the wall or a list of services. It's about delivering exceptional medicine with a warm, personal touch. It's about getting to know our clients and patients by name and understanding their unique needs. It's taking the time to discuss your concerns, explain the options, and help each client make the best decisions for their family.

We set goals for ourselves and take days off for mental health. If we reach our annual goals, we take trips to the Bahamas or the San Diego Zoo!

When you choose to work with us, you can expect to be treated as an important part of our team. That means support from leadership, flexible schedules, and a full package of benefits!

About the role:

Our Veterinary Technicians are an integral part of our team, and make it possible for us to give our clients and our patients a white-glove experience. Vet techs are the ones who see our furry patients the most and interact with their owners. They are also the doctors' right hand, assisting with treatment and keeping the safety of owners, staff, and pets in mind.

We need someone who is reliable, kind, and truly has a passion for what they do.
