About this role
Modern Animal is hiring a Registered Veterinary Technician for their Pasadena office, and they're emphasizing that this role goes beyond routine clinical work. You'll deliver general practice care using your full technical skill set, with particular focus on dental procedures—or the opportunity to develop expertise in that area if you're willing to learn. The position sits within a team environment that explicitly values continuous learning, integrity, and thoughtful communication with both clients and colleagues.
The role calls for someone with solid GP experience or the adaptability to pick up varied veterinary protocols quickly. Beyond technical competence, Modern Animal is looking for a forward-thinking mindset, strong ethics, and a proactive attitude that can handle accountability and follow through on challenges. Your communication skills matter as much as your clinical ones; they want someone who listens actively and helps foster a judgment-free, supportive workplace.
Compensation runs $30–$34 hourly, with a benefits package that includes medical, vision, dental, and mental health coverage, 401(k) matching, paid time off, paid parental leave, discounts on veterinary services for your own pets, and provided uniforms. The company frames this as a place built for people who see veterinary medicine as a calling, not just a paycheck—though the pay and benefits are positioned as genuinely competitive for the role.
