Job description

Care when it counts — from wherever you practice.

At Dutch, we’re on a mission to make high-quality veterinary care more accessible, affordable, and supportive — for both pets and the professionals who care for them. We believe care shouldn’t be limited by clinic hours or commute distance.

With Dutch, veterinary professionals can connect with clients for real advice, real prescriptions, and real impact — all from the comfort of home, supported by tools like our in-house EMR and digital workflows that help you focus on patient care.

Backed by leading investors, Dutch provides the stability and resources to support our team in delivering the highest standard of telemedicine care.

We’re seeking experienced, Credentialed Veterinary Technicians to join our growing telehealth team for in-person vaccine events. This is a flexible opportunity ideal for tech-savvy, client-focused vet techs who want to make a real impact in veterinary medicine.

  • Strong communication skills: Confident in client education and collaborating with doctors and teammates
  • Independent and proactive: Manage priorities and tasks effectively with minimal supervision
  • Continuous learner: Eager to grow professionally and take on new challenges in telehealth
  • Tech-savvy and organized: Comfortable navigating multiple computer programs, EMRs, and telehealth platforms
  • Remote-ready: Comfortable sitting/standing at a computer for extended periods
  • Schedule & Availability: This position primarily requires weekend availability, with occasional weekday shifts as needed.

Qualifications

  • Credentialed Veterinary Technician (LVT, CVT, RVT)
