The posting

Are you a Licensed Veterinary Technician (LVT) or an experienced Veterinary Technician who enjoys both surgery and appointments? If you value hands-on medicine, teamwork, and working in a clinic where your experience actually matters, Colonial Animal Hospital is looking to add a skilled, compassionate technician to our team.

We are a privately owned hospital with a close-knit, supportive culture. No corporate management. No burnout factory energy. Just good medicine, good people, and a team that genuinely enjoys working together.

Our schedule is intentionally structured with surgery in the mornings and appointments in the afternoons, giving you variety, strong skill development, and meaningful patient and client interaction every day.

Why Springfield, Virginia?

Located just outside Washington, DC, Springfield offers the best of both worlds.

  • Easy access to DC, Arlington, and Alexandria without city chaos

  • Great dining, shopping, and commuter access via I-95, I-395, and Metro
  • A stable, family-friendly community with plenty to do outside of work

It's a solid place to build both a career and a life.

  • Assist veterinarians with surgery, including spays, neuters, dentals, and soft tissue procedures
  • Monitor anesthesia and oversee safe, smooth recoveries
  • Perform blood draws, catheter placement, and in-house laboratory testing
  • Support appointments with patient care, treatments, and client education
  • Deliver consistent, high-quality nursing care throughout the day
  • Help maintain efficient, organized treatment and surgical areas

What Were Looking For

  • Active LVT license or a minimum of 5 years of veterinary technician experience
  • Strong confidence with anesthesia monitoring and surgical assistance
  • Comfort and efficiency working in both surgery and appointment settings
  • A compassionate, detail-oriented, team-oriented mindset
  • Ability to thrive in a busy, supportive clinical environment

Pay and Benefits

  • Health, dental, and vision insurance
  • 401(k) with employer matching
  • Paid time off
  • Continuing education support and CE credits

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
