Full company description
Being part of VetStrategy is about being part of something bigger – an ever-growing community, where we connect person-to-person and skill-to-need, united by a common purpose of healthy animals, happy owners. From our humble beginning in 2006 to the present day, we continue to make a difference in the lives of people who have dedicated themselves to this industry. When VetStrategy co-founders Orin Litman and his wife, Dr. Michelle Cutler, decided to acquire McLean Animal Hospital in 2006, they focused on three promises – our Customer Promise of world-class veterinary care, delivered locally; our People Promise, to be a great place to work; and our Sustainability Promise to be a force for good for patients, people and our plant. Keeping our three promises led VetStrategy to become the leading veterinary network in Canada, with veterinary practices, 24-hour emergency care, and specialty hospitals coast-to-coast. We have developed and refined a model for supporting our practices across the country. What we do: We care for those dedicated to caring for animals by creating a workplace where we focus on innovation, engagement, and teamwork. We know the blood, sweat and tears that have gone into building each practice, and we don’t want to touch that – we truly embrace the uniqueness of each clinic. Our heritage first approach means we won’t change a clinic’s name, culture or heritage. We understand the challenges our veterinary teams face and are committed to doing what’s right – for them, their clients, and their patients. We care about the future of veterinary medicine. Everything we do comes back to ensuring that veterinarians have the time, support, and infrastructure to focus on responsible medicine and quality care. We believe in empowering our support office and clinic staff and providing them opportunities to develop their skills and grow in their careers.

Are you a Registered Veterinary Technician who is passionate about helping pets regain their mobility, comfort, and quality of life? Do you love building relationships with patients and their families while using your technical skills to support recovery and long-term wellness?
The Veterinary Specialty Centre of Newfoundland and Labrador (VSCNL) is looking for a dedicated RVT to join our rehabilitation team! This is an exciting opportunity for someone who enjoys a hands-on, patient-focused approach to veterinary medicine and wants to help develop individualized rehabilitation plans that make a meaningful difference in the lives of pets.
Whether you already have experience in rehabilitation or are an RVT looking to grow your skills in this area, we’d love to hear from you!
About Us
The Veterinary Specialty Centre of Newfoundland and Labrador was founded with a simple but important goal: to ensure that pet owners never have to leave the province to access the veterinary care their pets need.
Today, VSCNL is an emergency and referral hospital committed to providing gold-standard veterinary medicine through collaboration, innovation, and lifelong learning. Our diverse caseload offers opportunities to work alongside experienced veterinary professionals, expand your knowledge, and make a real impact on patient outcomes.
We believe in caring deeply for our patients and our people. We’re committed to creating a supportive environment where team members feel valued, encouraged to grow, and proud of the work they do.
About the Role
As a Rehabilitation RVT, you’ll play an important role in helping patients recover from injury and surgery, manage chronic conditions, improve strength and mobility, and maintain a better quality of life.
You’ll work closely with veterinarians, rehabilitation professionals, and pet owners to support individualized treatment plans tailored to each patient’s needs and lifestyle.
Our rehabilitation services include a range of therapeutic approaches, such as hydrotherapy, manual therapy, neuromuscular electrical stimulation (NMES), therapeutic ultrasound, conditioning, pain management, and post-operative recovery support.
Your responsibilities will include:
Assisting with rehabilitation assessments and implementing individualized treatment plans.
Supporting patients through therapeutic exercises and rehabilitation sessions.
Monitoring patient comfort, mobility, progress, and response to treatment.
Assisting with rehabilitation modalities, including hydrotherapy and other therapeutic techniques, as appropriate to your training.
Supporting recovery following orthopedic and other surgical procedures.
Helping patients manage chronic and degenerative conditions, including arthritis and mobility challenges.
Educating pet owners on home exercises, ongoing care, and strategies to support recovery between appointments.
Maintaining accurate medical records and documenting patient progress.
Communicating with the broader veterinary team to ensure coordinated, patient-centred care.
Maintaining a clean, safe, and welcoming rehabilitation environment.
Every patient is different, and you’ll have the opportunity to help tailor care to their individual needs, whether they’re recovering from surgery, managing a chronic condition, improving fitness, or maintaining mobility as they age.
What We’re Looking For
Registration as a Registered Veterinary Technician in Newfoundland and Labrador, or eligibility to register.
CCRT certification would be considered an asset. Candidates who do not currently hold this certification must be willing to obtain their Certified Canine Rehabilitation Therapist (CCRT) certification within their first year of employment.
A genuine interest in rehabilitation, mobility, pain management, and improving patient quality of life.
Strong communication skills and a compassionate approach to patient and client care.
Confidence handling patients with a variety of needs, abilities, and temperaments.
Strong organizational skills and attention to detail.
A collaborative mindset and willingness to learn from colleagues across different areas of veterinary medicine.
An interest in client education and helping pet owners feel confident supporting their pets at home.
Previous veterinary rehabilitation experience or additional rehabilitation training would be an asset. However, we encourage RVTs with a strong interest in this field to apply, even if they are looking to develop their rehabilitation skills further.
