What are the responsibilities and job description for the House Call Veterinary Technician/Assistant position at Vet At Your Door, P.C.?
Veterinary Technician – Mobile House Call Practice
Vet At Your Door (VAYD) is a veterinarian-owned house call practice bringing exceptional veterinary care directly into homes across Maine. We were built on a simple idea: pets and their people do better when care comes to them.
We're privately owned and working toward something bigger - becoming the first veterinary company in the country to reach 100% employee ownership through an ESOP within the next three years. That means real, tangible stakes for every team member in the success we build together, not just a paycheck.
This position centers on relationship-building: pairing gentle, skilled patient handling with clear client education so families walk away feeling informed and reassured. You'll assist with wellness appointments that sometimes incorporate complementary approaches - acupuncture, cold laser therapy, and other integrative techniques - alongside conventional medicine, all aimed at keeping patients calm and comfortable in their own environment.
Because you'll be working in clients' homes rather than a clinic, independent judgment and strong self-direction matter a great deal. We're seeking someone thorough, flexible, and genuinely energized by connecting with people and their animals.
This Could Be Your Role If You:
- Work well solo but still want to feel connected to a supportive team
- Prioritize a sustainable schedule with predictable weekday hours
- Like balancing direct patient care with the behind-the-scenes systems that keep a practice running
- Bring careful attention to detail and communicate with clarity
- Genuinely enjoy forming long-term bonds with clients and their pets
- Are excited to grow with a purpose-driven practice on the path to employee ownership
What You'll Need:
- Veterinary Technician license in Maine (preferred - experience considered in lieu of licensure)
- At least 4 years of hands-on clinical experience
- A calm, confident, compassionate presence when working in someone's home
- Strong organizational habits and attention to detail
- Dependability, curiosity, and solid communication skills
Benefits & Perks:
- Company-provided vehicle for all house calls
- 4 day workweek - Monday-Thursday
- Comprehensive benefits for team members working 32 hours/week, including health, dental, and vision coverage
- 3% match on SIMPLE IRA contributions
- Short-term and long-term disability coverage
- Life insurance
- PTO that increases with tenure
- CE stipend plus dedicated CE time off
- A culture genuinely invested in your growth and well-being
