Looking for a veterinary role where you can combine your love of horses, hands-on patient care, and client service? This may be exactly what you've been looking for.

We're seeking an experienced Equine Veterinary Technician/Receptionist to join our growing equine practice. This unique hybrid position offers the opportunity to work directly with horses and veterinarians while also helping clients navigate appointments, treatments, farm calls, and follow-up care.

No two days are exactly alike. One moment you may be assisting with a lameness examination or caring for a hospitalized horse, and the next you may be coordinating a farm call or helping a client understand the next steps in their horse's care.

• Consistent Monday–Friday schedule with a one-hour lunch break
• Unique opportunity to combine hands-on equine medicine with client service
• Diverse caseload that allows you to use a wide range of veterinary skills
• Opportunities to assist with surgery, anesthesia, radiology, dentistry, laboratory work, and farm calls
• Supportive team that values communication, dependability, and collaboration
• Opportunities for continued learning and professional development
• Meaningful relationships with horses, clients, veterinarians, and teammates
• A role where every day brings something different
