Certified Veterinary Technician (CVT) — Come Do the Work You Trained For
Alburtis Animal Hospital | Alburtis, PA
You worked hard to become a veterinary technician. We think you should get to use those skills.
Alburtis Animal Hospital is an independently owned small-animal practice looking for a talented, engaged Certified Veterinary Technician to join our team.
We are growing, evolving and investing in the way we practice medicine — and we’re looking for a CVT who wants to be part of that.
This isn't a position where you'll spend your day simply holding pets and cleaning rooms. We want our technicians to think, contribute, learn and use their clinical skills.
What you'll actually get to do
Depending on your experience and interests, your role will include:
- Anesthesia monitoring and surgical support
- Dental procedures and dental radiography
- Venipuncture and IV catheter placement
- Digital radiography
- In-house laboratory testing and microscopy
- Ear cytology and other technician-level diagnostics
- Medication preparation and patient treatments
- Hospitalized patient care
- Technician appointments
- Client education
- Preventative care
- Supporting our doctors with efficient patient flow
And yes — everyone helps with the everyday work that keeps a hospital running. We're a team.
Why Alburtis?
We're independent, and that matters.
Our decisions are made here, by people who work in the hospital and know our patients, clients and team.
We're large enough to offer interesting medicine and opportunities to develop your skills, but small enough that your ideas can genuinely influence how we do things.
We're actively improving our workflows, expanding technician appointments, developing clinical competencies and creating more opportunities for our technicians to work at the top of their skill set.
The person we're hoping to find
You might be a great fit if you:
- Are a CVT in Pennsylvania or eligible for certification
- Take pride in excellent patient care
- Enjoy being busy and part of an energetic hospital
- Are dependable and willing to jump in when your team needs you
- Communicate well with clients, doctors and coworkers
- Like learning and developing your clinical skills
- See something that needs doing and take initiative
- Want to contribute ideas rather than simply be given a task list
Experience is wonderful, but attitude, curiosity and teamwork matter enormously to us.
What we offer
- Competitive compensation based on experience
- Full-time opportunity
- Paid time off
- Health, vision and dental benefits
- Continuing education support
- Employee pet-care benefits
- A varied caseload
- Opportunities to expand your technical skills
- A supportive, independently owned practice
