Registered Veterinary Technician - Night Shift

Are You a Night Owl? We've Got Your Dream Shift.

Overnight Registered Veterinary Technician (RVT)

Galaxy Vets Urgent Care & Walk-In – St. John's, NL (Opening Soon)

Not everyone loves mornings.

Some people do their best work when the hospital is quiet, the phones have stopped ringing, and the focus shifts from chaos to patient care.

If you're the type of RVT who enjoys monitoring hospitalized patients, keeping things running smoothly, and providing exceptional overnight care, this may be the perfect role for you.

No New Patients. No Constant Triage. No Waiting Room Full of Walk-Ins.

Once the hospital closes for new arrivals, your focus becomes what matters most:

The patients already in our care.

You'll spend your shift

🐾 Monitoring hospitalized patients

💉 Administering treatments and medications

📈 Tracking patient progress and reporting concerns

🩺 Providing nursing care and patient comfort

📋 Updating medical records and treatment sheets

🚨 Recognizing changes early and escalating concerns appropriately

❤️ Being the calm, steady presence our patients need overnight

This is a role for someone who enjoys patient care, critical thinking, and having the time to truly focus on their patients.

Why RVTs Love Overnight Work

Let's be honest.

Some RVTs thrive when they can slow down and concentrate.

No constant room appointments.

No endless interruptions.

Just you, your patients, your skills, and a team that trusts you to do what you do best.

"I wish I had more time to actually monitor my patients..."

This role was built for you.
