Job Description - Fairfax Animal Hospital - Licensed Veterinary Technician

Who is VetEvolve?



VetEvolve is a network of veterinary practices built to support the people delivering care and the practices they lead. We combine clinical insight with operational strength to give our teams the support, tools, and structure they need to thrive, without losing what makes each practice unique. We are intentionally focused on growth, not as an end in itself, but as a way to strengthen our practices, expand access to care, and create more opportunities for our teams. 


Guided by our values: Care First. Better Together. Grow Forward. Own It. We create an environment where veterinary professionals can do their best work, build meaningful careers, and deliver exceptional care. Growth with intention. Care without compromise.


 

Licensed Veterinary Technician (LVT)


Use Your License. Love Your Team. Practice Great Medicine.


At Fairfax Animal Hospital, we believe Licensed Veterinary Technicians should be trusted, respected, and utilized to the full extent of their training, not just asked to “help hold.”


We’re a busy, high-performing 2.5 doctor general practice/urgent care hospital that practices high-quality medicine while still managing to laugh, support each other, and keep the day moving when things get a little chaotic (because, well,  veterinary med).


We’re looking for an LVT who is skilled, collaborative, adaptable, and enjoys being part of a genuinely supportive team. Someone who loves patient care, communicates well, and can balance professionalism with personality.


If you’re searching for a clinic where:



  • your skills are valued,

  • your input matters,

  • your coworkers actually help each other,

  • and the culture is positive without being overly corporate…


…you may fit in very well here.


We are currently hiring for full-time or part-time positions with competitive pay based on experience and opportunities for growth.


 


What You’ll Do:


Actually Practice Like an LVT


As an LVT at Fairfax Animal Hospital, you’ll be a true clinical partner to our veterinarians, helping deliver excellent patient care while utilizing your full technical skillset.


Clinical & Patient Care



  • Induce and monitor anesthesia and perform endotracheal intubation

  • Perform dental prophylaxis and obtain dental radiographs

  • Administer injectable, oral, and topical medications

  • Collect and process laboratory samples

  • Place IV catheters and administer fluid therapy

  • Assist in surgical prep, monitoring, and recovery

  • Manage hospitalized patients and treatment protocols


Diagnostics & Imaging



  • Capture high-quality radiographs

  • Perform in-house lab testing including hematology, urinalysis, and cytology

  • Assist with advanced diagnostics and specialty referrals


Client Communication & Education



  • Educate clients on medications, treatments, and preventive care

  • Provide discharge instructions and follow-up recommendations

  • Build strong relationships with clients through compassion and communication


Leadership & Teamwork



  • Support and mentor assistants and newer team members

  • Help improve workflow and patient care processes

  • Be part of a collaborative, fast-paced environment where everyone jumps in to help


 


What Our Team Is Like


We work hard, move fast, and genuinely care about doing good medicine and each other. We also believe:



  • good teams communicate well

  • kindness matters

  • Inclusivity is important

  • humor helps

  • and nobody should dread coming to work every day


We are proud of the culture we’ve built and are intentional about hiring people who contribute positively to it.


Our ideal candidate is someone who:



  • enjoys staying busy

  • keeps a sense of humor on tough days

  • treats coworkers with respect

  • understands that veterinary medicine works best when the whole team supports each other


Bonus points if you can place a catheter while answering questions and mentally planning your lunch order.


 


Benefits for Full-Time Team Members



  • Competitive compensation based on experience

  • Medical, dental, and vision insurance

  • Supplemental insurance options

  • 401(k) eligibility with employer contribution

  • Continuing education allowance

  • LVT tuition reimbursement

  • Paid holidays and paid time off

  • Scrub allowance

  • Employee pet discounts

What You Bring to the Team


Required Qualifications



  • Active Virginia LVT license

  • Minimum of two years of clinical veterinary experience

  • Proficiency in anesthesia, dentistry, radiology, and surgical assistance


Preferred Qualities



  • Strong communication and teamwork skills

  • Reliability and adaptability

  • Ability to multitask in a high-volume environment

  • Passion for patient care and continued learning


Physical Requirements



  • Ability to frequently lift and/or carry up to 50 lbs

  • Ability to stand, walk, bend, and move throughout the workday

  • Ability to safely handle animals, equipment, and materials


Veterinary medicine is demanding, rewarding, unpredictable, and occasionally powered entirely by caffeine and teamwork.


We’re looking for someone who wants to practice great medicine, continue growing their skills, and be part of a team that genuinely enjoys working together.


If that sounds like your kind of environment, we’d love to meet you.
