Help Build the Veterinary Hospital You've Always Wanted to Work In

Some people are looking for a job. Others are looking for the opportunity to build something that lasts.

At Sheridan Pet Care, we're looking for an experienced Lead Veterinary Technician who is passionate about exceptional medicine, enjoys mentoring others, and wants to help shape the future of a growing veterinary practice.

This isn't a role where you'll inherit outdated systems or spend your days putting out fires. It's an opportunity to work alongside the practice owner to build a hospital known for outstanding patient care, an incredible client experience, and a supportive, collaborative team culture.

If you've ever thought, "If I were leading this hospital, here's how I'd do it..." we'd love to hear your ideas.

Who We Are

Sheridan Pet Care is a locally owned and intentionally independent small animal practice dedicated to providing compassionate, relationship-centered care for dogs and cats throughout every stage of life.

Our services include:

• Surgery
• Advanced dentistry with full-mouth dental radiographs
• Internal medicine
• In-house laboratory and pharmacy
• Preventive care
• House-call appointments

We're actively pursuing AAHA accreditation and Fear Free certification, and we believe excellent medicine starts with an engaged team that genuinely enjoys working together.

Although we're still a small practice, we're busy, growing quickly, and intentionally building a hospital where quality always comes before quantity.

The Opportunity

As our Lead Veterinary Technician, you'll be much more than the person running treatments.

You'll become a trusted clinical partner to the practice owner, helping establish medical standards, train the team, improve workflows, and create an environment where both patients and employees thrive.

Because our team is intentionally small, you'll have the opportunity to make a significant impact every single day. Your ideas won't get lost in layers of management—they'll help shape the future of our hospital.

What You'll Do

Lead Exceptional Patient Care

• Assist with appointments, surgery, anesthesia, dentistry, diagnostics, and nursing care
• Ensure high standards of patient safety and medical quality
• Promote Fear Free, low-stress patient handling
• Help continually improve patient care protocols and clinical efficiency

Build an Outstanding Technician Team

• Train and mentor veterinary assistants and technicians
• Help develop onboarding and clinical training programs
• Coach team members with patience, encouragement, and accountability
• Foster confidence and growth in others

Partner in Building the Hospital

• Collaborate directly with the practice owner on workflow improvements
• Help develop standard operating procedures and best practices
• Support inventory management and equipment maintenance
• Identify opportunities to improve efficiency while maintaining exceptional medicine
• Serve as a positive leader who helps create a culture people are excited to be part of

Who You Are

You're an experienced technician who loves veterinary medicine and helping your team thrive.

You enjoy teaching. You naturally encourage teammates. You believe great medicine happens when everyone is working together toward the same goal.

You might be the perfect fit if you:

• Have several years of veterinary technician experience (credentialed technicians strongly preferred)
• Love anesthesia, surgery, dentistry, and patient nursing
• Have experience training or mentoring team members
• Are passionate about quality medicine and continuous improvement
• Enjoy building systems rather than simply following them
• Communicate with kindness, professionalism, and honesty
• Stay calm under pressure and help others do the same
• Take pride in creating a positive, supportive work environment

Leadership experience is wonderful, but we're equally interested in experienced technicians who are ready to take the next step.

Compensation & Benefits

• Competitive compensation based on experience and credentials
• Paid time off
• Pet care discounts
• Continuing education allowance and paid CE days
• Support for Fear Free certification
• Human–Animal Bond training
• Mental health workplace resources (CLEAR Blueprint)
• Collaborative leadership that values your ideas
• Benefits designed to grow as the practice grows

Why Sheridan Pet Care?

This is one of those rare opportunities to help build a hospital from the inside out.

You'll work side-by-side with an owner who values collaboration, welcomes new ideas, and believes great medicine starts with investing in great people.

If you're looking for a place where you can lead, mentor, practice exceptional medicine, and leave a lasting impact on a growing hospital, we'd love to meet you.
