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.
