    Description

    Clinic Check-in - Tuesdays

    Our check-in volunteers are among the first faces clients and their pets see upon arrival on the day of surgery, and we are looking for a few good folks!

    Are you an animal lover who is great with all types of people, organized, outgoing, and possibly looking for a bit of exercise? This might be a perfect opportunity for you!

    We are looking for one (1) special person to help weekly on Tuesdays to get our clients and their pets checked in for surgery! Client check-in starts at 8:00 a.m. each day (arrival time of 7:45am), and shifts are generally a 2-hour commitment ending around 10:00 10:00 a.m. This shift is located at our headquarters in Minneapolis. This is a minimum commitment of 4 to 6 months.

    The basic outline of the position includes, but is not necessarily limited to, the following:

    • Greet clients and their pets from a distance to verify that they are scheduled for the day and are at the correct time and door
    • We are currently utilizing a paging system, so the client typically receives a pager and waits in their car
    • Regulate the number of people going into the building (currently only 1 at a time)
    • Escort animals to the proper area or kennel
    • Label carriers or crates as needed
    • Give parking directions or other information
    • Please note this position includes working outside in varying weather conditions (can be inside between clients)

    If you have any questions, please feel free to ask!

    1 shift available:

    • Every Tuesday: 08:00 to 10:00 CST
