    Description

    🐾 Volunteer as Cleanup Crew — Help Us Wrap Up Another Successful Adoption Day!

    At Rocky Mountain Puppy Rescue, after every adoption event comes the important work of cleaning up and preparing for the next one. Our Cleanup Crew works alongside staff to ensure everything is properly cleaned, organized, and ready for our next group of dogs waiting for their forever homes.

    🧹 What You'll Do

    • Maintain dog pens during the event by keeping them clean, stocked with fresh water, and equipped with cozy toys and blankets
    • Assist volunteers in safely moving dogs from their pens to meet potential adopters
    • Clean and sanitize dog pens after the adoption event ends
    • Break down pens and move them to back areas for thorough cleaning and storage
    • Assist staff with post-event cleanup tasks and organization
    • Help prepare equipment for the next adoption event

    📍 Where & When

    • Where: PetCo, 4100 E. Colorado Blvd., Denver (weekly) and PetSmart, 10600 Melody Drive, Northglenn (a few times a month)
    • When: Saturdays, 12:00–4:30 pm (4.5-hour commitment, with cleanup focus from 3:30-4:30)

    ❤️ Why This Role Matters Every successful adoption event depends on having clean, safe equipment ready to go. Your help with the "behind-the-scenes" work ensures our staff can focus on matching dogs with families during events, knowing that cleanup is handled by dedicated volunteers. You're part of the essential team that makes it possible for us to help more dogs week after week.
