Certified Veterinary Technician

“An animal’s eyes have the power to speak a great language.” Martin Buber, German Philosopher

Orchard Veterinary Medical Center welcomes you to our family focused, full service practice. We are committed to honesty, respect, and compassionate care for each patient, client, and team member. Through active continuing education we strive to offer the most progressive medicine, giving our best recommendations for a wide variety of species. We value and honor the human-animal bond with a personalized, whole life approach, so as to enhance the lives of our patients.

OVMC cares for cats, dogs and rabbits, with the occasional other pocket pet. We are a busy urgent care and we are looking for another technician to help us as we grow.

Currently we are seeking someone to work three 12 hour shifts (Sun-Tues 9a-9p) which gives you the benefit of full time hours and 4 days off per week!
