Licensed Veterinary Technician

Licensed Veterinary Technician Supervisor, People-First, Fear Free Practice in Alexandria, VA.

If you're an experienced LVT who loves leadership, thrives in a healthy culture, and wants to work somewhere that treats people like people, not machines, then you might've just found your next home.

Who We Are

We opened in 2019 with one doctor and four support staff. Since then, we've grown into a thriving team.

We survived the pandemic, doubled down on culture, and became Northern Virginia's first Fear Free Certified hospital. We operate more like a family doctor for pets, taking 3060 minutes per appointment, so clients never feel rushed, and our team doesn't feel overwhelmed.

Our values guide everything: compassion, direct and honest communication, growth, community impact, integrity, perseverance, and fun. If these resonate with you, youll fit right in. Drama and ego do not survive here. Growth, kindness, accountability, and laughter do.
