Location: Andover Animal Hospital | Andover, MA
Andover Animal Hospital is a full-service, 10-doctor, AAHA-accredited animal hospital in Andover, MA. We care for dogs, cats, birds, pocket pets, and exotics (yes, really — lizards, snakes, rabbits, and the occasional sugar glider who thinks it’s a flying squirrel on Red Bull). If you like a little unpredictability in your patient roster and don’t flinch at feathers or scales, you’ll fit right in.
You’ll be a true tech — not just a glorified restrainer or treat dispenser. We believe in letting skilled team members use their skills. You'll work alongside our doctors to provide compassionate care to a whole zoo of species and be empowered to take the lead on things like:
- Diagnostic sample collection
- Venipuncture & IV catheter placement (bonus if you don’t need to tape your own fingers together)
- Radiology (including exotic critters with very strong opinions about staying still)
- Anesthesia and surgical monitoring
- Pain management and patient comfort
- Dental radiographs, cleanings, and possibly identifying what that dog just ate
- General exotic-wrangling finesse and MacGyver-level problem solving
- You’ve got 2+ years of experience in a veterinary setting
- You’re not licensed, but you’ve got the knowledge, instincts, and hustle of someone who is
- You’re cool under pressure and can handle a minor chaos spiral without sacrificing your snack stash
- You’re adaptable, collaborative, and you laugh at least once per shift
- You care about patients, clients, your team, and maybe naming every orange cat “Cheddar”
📦 A full slate of benefits you can actually use, including:
- Medical, dental, and vision coverage
- Complimentary short-term disability and life insurance
- 401K with company match
- Paid time off (for real — we want you to use it)
- Employee Assistance Program with Headspace
- Discounts for your own zoo at home
- LGBTQIA+ support through FOLX Healthcare
- Fertility and family-building support via Progyny
- DailyPay access, so you don’t have to wait to replace your favorite scrubs after the incident
- A team that supports each other, laughs a lot, and doesn’t take themselves too seriously (unless there are donuts — then things get intense)
