Description
Licensed Veterinary Technician — For Pet’s Sake Veterinary Center & Granville Veterinary Care
Glens Falls & Granville, NY | Full-Time
Tired of clinics that treat you like a cog?
We’re looking for a Licensed Veterinary Technician who wants more than a job — who wants a practice that actually feels like theirs. Two growing small-animal hospitals in the Adirondack foothills, one energetic team, and real room to build something with your name on it.
What makes this different:
Real independence. Bring your own protocols, your own style, your own ideas for how patient care should run — your expertise matters here, and we want a tech who leads with it.
Room to grow. Cross-train across surgery, dentistry, in-house diagnostics, and more. Want to specialize? We’ll help you get there.
Two clinics, one team. Work across FPS and GVC with dedicated surgical days and a schedule built for real work-life balance.
Competitive pay + benefits that reflect your license and your experience — not entry-level scraps.
A leadership team with 25+ years in the field, including deep community and law-enforcement partnerships on animal welfare — this is a practice that stands for something.
What we need from you:
Active NYS veterinary technician license
A genuine love of medicine and animals — and the leadership skills to make your mark on how care is delivered
Willingness to work across both locations as our schedule requires
If you’re a tech who’s ready to lead, not just execute, and wants a practice where your knowledge and voice shape how care happens — we want to meet you.
For Pet’s Sake Veterinary Center (Glens Falls) & Granville Veterinary Care (Granville) — apply today.
