Veterinary Technician

Experienced Veterinary Technician – NVC Richmond, TX

Neighborhood Veterinary Centers – Richmond

Welcome to the Neighborhood.

At Neighborhood Veterinary Centers (NVC), our mission comes down to three simple words: It's about time.

• Time to truly know every pet and their family — because no one should feel like they're leaving their loved one with a stranger.
• Time to follow up, check in, and adjust care plans so each patient stays on track.
• Time to preserve the small-town values and personal touches that built our reputation.

That's how we bring innovation and heart together to provide the very best care — and create a career experience that's fulfilling, supportive, and growth-oriented.

The Role: Experienced Veterinary Technician

We're looking for a skilled and motivated Veterinary Technician who brings both experience and heart to the table. This role is ideal for someone who's confident in their technical abilities — from surgery and anesthesia to dentistry and catheter placement — and who thrives in a collaborative, team-first environment.

You understand that great medicine starts with great teamwork and communication. You care deeply about clients, support your teammates, and always look for ways to learn, grow, and contribute.
