Veterinary Technician / Veterinary Assistant
Full-Time / Part-Time
Dallas Veterinary Clinic is proud to be the only independently owned, AAHA accredited, Fear Free Certified Practice, certified Cat Friendly Practice in DFW.
Our team is amazing and very supportive of one another. Mental health is a priority and kindness is required of everyone (including clients!). Well-being, supportive atmosphere and work/life balance are just a few of the reasons our team members look forward to coming to work each day. We provide the absolute highest standard of comprehensive veterinary care, from diagnostics to surgery/dentistry to chronic illness and pain management to nutrition/behavior consults. Our accreditations speak for themselves (AAHA Certified, Fear Free Certified Practice, Cat Friendly Practice), and we’re always voted a “Neighborhood Favorite” on Nextdoor by our happy clients. We live by our core values and enjoy meaningful and rewarding work experiences.
We are a private and locally owned boutique companion animal practice in the heart of upscale North Dallas, situated between Park Cities and Preston Hollow. We know our clients and patients by name when they walk in the door. As owners who actually work in the practice, Dr. and Mrs. Priddy’s door is always open to our team members. We thrive in a sparkling clean, well-appointed, spa-like space. Compliance with recommended therapies is high, and diagnostic work-ups are the norm here. We are not a high volume hospital and our patients are individuals, not just a number; we are high-touch and thorough. Maximum anesthetic procedures in a day do not exceed three so that our patients get the individual attention and gold standard medical care and safety that we promise every time. We leverage our experienced technicians so as to provide talented techs and assistants with the opportunities to reach their full potential professionally.
What makes Dallas Veterinary Clinic different from other clinical settings in veterinary medicine:

- We want to give experienced technicians and assistants more responsibility, autonomy and opportunity.
- We continually ask our team members their opinions and explore ideas on how we can improve/evolve everyone’s experience from patients to clients to team members.
