    • Communicate with prospective adopters via email or phone
    • Conduct reference checks as needed
    • Coordinate meet-and-greet logistics with fosters
    • Support drafting or updating adoption bios
    • Ensure adoption paperwork is complete and organized

    • Organized, dependable, and detail-oriented
    • Discreet and respectful when handling personal information
    • Comfortable making thoughtful placement recommendations
    • Able to exercise sound judgment
    • Experience with animal rescue, adoption, or customer service is helpful but not required

    Commitment

    • Approximately 2–5 hours per week with flexible scheduling
    • This role can be performed remotely; occasional availability to attend local meet-and-greets is a plus
