About Us
At AdvanceCare Veterinary Hospital, we pride ourselves on delivering high-quality, compassionate care to the pets of Pilot Point and surrounding communities. As a locally owned small animal practice, we take the time to build genuine relationships with our clients and treat every patient like family.
Pilot Point is a growing North Texas town (close to both Fort Worth and Dallas) with deep rural roots and a strong sense of community. We are looking for a dedicated Veterinary Technician who shares our passion for medicine, values teamwork, and wants to grow alongside our expanding practice.
Our primary veterinarian, Dr. Murphy, offers her skills to each patient and their owner, as well, she helps each vet tech to be their best. Dr. Murphy is well-respected in the community.
Role Overview
As a Veterinary Technician at AdvanceCare, you will play a central role in both patient care and client communication. You’ll work alongside our veterinarian to deliver comprehensive care—from preventative health checks to surgical assistance and diagnostic imaging. We foster a collaborative, supportive environment where your technical skills will be fully utilized and appreciated.
Note: some of your time will be split with Oak Grove Veterinary Hospital -- about a 25 minute drive from Pilot Point. Dr. Murphy covers this location as well and the same owner owns it.
