Lobby Greeter
Descripción
Descripción
As a Lobby Greeter, you’ll be the first friendly face our visitors see when they walk in! Greeters welcome and check in guests, help guide the flow of visitors on a first-come, first-served basis, and make sure the lobby feels safe, clean, and inviting. You’ll keep applications and information stocked, organize the treat station, and help store donations. Approved dog walkers (18+) may also assist visitors with Meet & Greets. Volunteers must be 16 years or older to join—no experience needed! This is a great role for friendly, approachable people who enjoy helping others and want to make a difference for both animals and the community.
