About

The Cortland Veterinary Hospital is a newly renovated, privately owned, small animal hospital located near the Finger Lakes region. We're a well established hospital with a dedicated clientele who appreciates the care we provide them and their pets. Many of our clients are generations of families who have entrusted us with the care of their pets for the 79 years that we've been a part of this community. Cortland is a college town where outdoor sports, cultural activities, food venues and Destiny USA are readily accessible.
We recognize the important contributions of each of our team members and we strive to provide a positive work environment that promotes support and growth for our staff, cooperation among the team, fist pumping job satisfaction, and plenty of laughs. We take pauses throughout the day for chocolate treats and for play sessions with our engaging mascot, Johnny, a tripod orange tiger. The hospital closes at 5 pm and we mean it.
We're looking for a licensed or license eligible veterinary technician who thoroughly enjoys engaging with pets and their human companions. Joining our team requires a positive attitude and an ability to work cooperatively with others. If you believe that you're meant to be a vet tech, we want to hear from you.
