Table Mountain Veterinary Clinic – Colorado
Table Mountain Veterinary Clinic is seeking a Part-Time Veterinary Technician or Assistant to join our established, four-doctor practice in the foothills of the Rocky Mountains. This role is ideal for an experienced technician looking for meaningful clinical work with true scheduling flexibility in a supportive, team-oriented environment.
Our hospital operates at the intersection of general practice and urgent care, serving a loyal client base and striving to see same-day urgent cases whenever possible. The medicine is engaging, the team is experienced, and no two days look the same.

Why This Part-Time Role Stands Out• Highly flexible scheduling — we are genuinely open to non-traditional schedules• Previous success with dental-focused shifts (ex: M/W/Th, 9am–2pm)• Opportunity to tailor hours around family, school, or other commitments• Part-time role with hands-on, meaningful technician responsibilities• A stable, experienced team with strong doctor tenure (9–30+ years in practice)

About the Practice• Four-doctor team with deep roots in the community• Doctor-forward model — technicians focus on procedures, diagnostics, and patient care• Dedicated surgery days with active technician involvement (dentals, spay/neuter, foreign body surgeries)• In-house IDEXX laboratory and collaboration with radiology specialists• Occasional exposure to exotic cases in addition to companion animal medicine• Leadership that prioritizes culture and makes thoughtful choices to support a positive, compassionate work environment

Position Responsibilities• Assist veterinarians with exams, treatments, and procedures• Perform venipuncture, collect and run lab samples, and take diagnostic radiographs• Place IV catheters, administer medications and fluids, and monitor anesthesia• Support dental procedures including scaling and polishing• Assist with surgical preparation and patient recovery• Maintain accurate medical records and a clean, organized treatment area

Qualifications• Veterinary Assistnat experience required• RVT/CVT/LVT credential preferred but not required• Strong technical skills, especially dentals and laboratory work• Reliable, team-focused, and comfortable jumping in where needed• Compassionate and professional approach with patients and clients

Compensation & Part-Time Benefits• $21–$24 per hour, based on experience and credentials• Paid sick time• Employee discounts• Exceptional pet care benefits — most services covered for personal pets (excluding anesthesia and select large lab tests)

Why Join Table Mountain Veterinary ClinicThis is a great opportunity for a Veterinary Assistant who wants to stay clinically engaged without committing to a full-time schedule. You’ll be supported by experienced doctors, trusted to use your skills, and welcomed into a team that values flexibility, collaboration, and quality patient care.
