About Vet At Your Door

Vet At Your Door (VAYD) is a veterinarian-owned and operated house call practice serving communities across Maine. Founded on the belief that the best care happens at home, we bring high-quality, compassionate veterinary medicine directly to our clients’ doors.

​

We’re privately owned with a bold vision: to become the first 100% employee-owned national veterinary company (ESOP planned within the next three years).

This role blends advanced technical skill, leadership, and client communication. Our visits focus on connection, education, and thoughtful medicine, often integrating complementary therapies such as acupuncture and cold laser alongside modern veterinary care.

​

About the Role

We are seeking an experienced Lead Licensed Veterinary Technician to lead and operate a mobile technician team in the field. This is a high-autonomy, leadership-forward position ideal for a technician who enjoys ownership, decision-making, and mentoring others.

​

You will run technician appointments independently under the indirect supervision of our veterinarians, guide your assigned technician/assistant, and serve as the primary operational lead for your mobile unit. You’ll be trusted to make sound decisions in the field, confidently address client questions and concerns while knowing when to escalate concerns. This is also an administratively heavy role. Strong organizational skills, comfort with documentation, scheduling coordination, inventory, communication, and follow-up tasks are essential for success.

​

Key Responsibilities

• Lead and manage a mobile technician team (yourself plus one assistant or technician)

• Independently run technician appointments in client homes

• Use real-time clinical and logistical assessments  in the field

• Know when and how to seek DVM support when needed

• Confidently communicate with clients, addressing questions and concerns professionally and compassionately

• Provide mentorship, guidance, and leadership to your team member

• Maintain accurate medical records, documentation, and follow-up communication

• Manage and complete administrative responsibilities related to appointments, inventory, and workflow

• Uphold VAYD standards of care, professionalism, and client experience

​

This Role Is a Great Fit If You:

• Are a natural leader who enjoys guiding and supporting others

• Thrive in autonomous roles and take pride in ownership and accountability

• Are confident making decisions independently in the field

• Have a clear understanding of when to escalate clinical questions to the veterinarian

• Communicate clearly and calmly with clients in sensitive or complex situations

• Enjoy both hands-on clinical work and behind-the-scenes administrative tasks

• Value work-life balance and consistent weekday hours

• Want to grow within a mission-driven, privately owned (soon-to-be employee-owned) practice

​

Qualifications & Experience

• Active Maine Licensed Veterinary Technician (LVT) or license-eligible

• Previous leadership experience strongly preferred, including:

  • Lead Technician experience

  • Supervisor or management experience

  • Training or mentoring other technicians or assistants

• Minimum 5+ years of clinical experience (more strongly preferred for leadership candidates)

• Strong organizational, administrative, and communication skills

• Professional, compassionate presence in client homes

• Reliable, adaptable, and confident working independently

​
