Love cats and dogs? Want to give back to your community?
Council is looking for volunteers to provide extra love and attention for the hundreds of pets that we care for at our Animal Care & Education Centre (ACE) each year.
While we do everything we can to make their time with us the best possible, extra affection never goes astray.
Providing much-needed enrichment and socialisation for the lost and surrendered pets improves their overall wellbeing and helps us to rehome them.
We have 2 roles available.
π Canine Companions, who help out by:
* Walking and exercising dogs at our facility
* Socialising with the dogs
* Basic training (sit, heel)
* Pats and playtime.
π Cat Cuddlers, who help out by:
* Socialising with the cats
* Grooming
* Playing
* Providing treats and other forms of affection.
πVolunteers:
* Make social connections with like-minded individuals
* Gain valuable skills and experience to use with their own pets or to further their career prospects
* Improve their physical and mental wellbeing
Volunteers shifts are available every day for two hours in the morning or two hours in the afternoon.
