Veterinary Technician / Experienced Veterinary Assistant

Arroyo Vista Veterinary Hospital - Moorpark, CA

Are you a Veterinary Technician or experienced Veterinary Assistant who thrives in a busy hospital, knows how to prioritize, and loves being part of a team that jumps in together to get the job done? Arroyo Vista Veterinary Hospital in Moorpark, CA is looking for an experienced veterinary professional to join our team as we continue to grow!

Arroyo Vista is a well-established, AAHA-accredited small animal hospital that has been caring for dogs and cats in the Moorpark community since 2004. We offer comprehensive veterinary care including wellness, dentistry, diagnostic imaging, in-house laboratory services, and soft tissue and orthopedic surgery.

But what really sets Arroyo Vista apart is our team.

We're proud to have an incredibly tenured team, with several team members who have been part of Arroyo Vista for 10, 15, and even nearly 30 years. That kind of longevity speaks to the supportive, close-knit culture we've built. Add in our three resident hospital cats, and you'll quickly see that Arroyo Vista is a place where people-and pets-tend to stick around.

What We're Looking For

• Excellent time management and the ability to prioritize throughout the day
• Experience with patient care, treatments, diagnostics, and client communication
• Surgical and anesthesia experience is a plus
• A willingness to jump in wherever needed
• A positive, dependable, and collaborative attitude
• RVT credentials are welcomed but not required for experienced candidates

Above all, we're looking for someone who believes "we're in this together." Our team works hard, communicates, supports one another, and takes pride in providing excellent care.

Schedule

We offer an alternative workweek schedule designed to give you more days away from the hospital while still maintaining full-time hours.

• 3 weekdays + Saturday
• 1-hour lunch
• Saturday availability required

Compensation & Benefits

$24-$32/hour, depending on experience and skill set
