Full Job Description

What is Gigi’s?
Not your grandma’s place or cupcakes – we’re a startup and rapidly growing non-profit that provides access to integrated shelter, veterinary, and behavior care to homeless dogs in rural shelters.

We believe that Improving the Lives of Shelter Dogs™ requires a different approach in shelters and rescues. We've assembled one set of experts in one care facility to serve many rural shelters; a more cost-effective method of delivering quality care to save more lives.

We’re focused on your personal growth along with our mission! We believe in people and want them to excel at things they love, try things that scare them, and develop into professionals they’re proud to be. We believe in creating a culture of growth, support, and intention, and we believe have a model that will be the future care for dogs in shelters. It's time for you to join our team so we can save more dogs!

As an Adoptions & Events Team Member, you’ll get to:

Help adopters find the right dog for their family and lifestyle.
Welcome guests and guide them through Gigi’s adoption process.
Answer questions about available dogs, adoption requirements, and what adopters can expect.
Facilitate introductions between potential adopters and dogs.
Share relevant medical, behavior, and care information clearly and professionally.
Complete adoption paperwork and accurately enter information into our shelter database.
Prepare dogs and adoption materials for appointments and events.
Help with adoption events, community events, and other off-site programs.
Assist with event setup, breakdown, supplies, signage, and guest engagement.
Safely handle, leash, crate, load, and transport dogs when needed.
Monitor dogs during adoption hours and events to help keep them comfortable and safe.
Maintain clean and welcoming adoption, kennel, and guest areas.
Communicate effectively with the Animal Care, Behavior, Veterinary, Placement, and Community Engagement teams.
Represent Gigi’s professionally and courteously, both on campus and in the community.
Be an active member of Team Gigi’s and continue developing skills that support our mission and goals.

Other duties as assigned? Absolutely.

We believe every job should change and grow as we find better and more effective ways to do our work. All members of Team Gigi’s collaborate and take on different responsibilities as needed. You’ll most certainly do things we haven’t listed here—some are too small to list, some are projects you’ll bring to the team, and some are things we’ll build together to improve the lives of shelter dogs.

Must have:

Strong customer service and communication skills.
Confidence speaking with individuals, families, and groups of people.
The ability to remain calm and professional in emotional or challenging situations.
Good judgment and attention to detail.
Comfort working with computers and learning new software.
The ability to accurately complete paperwork and enter information into a database.
The ability to work independently while also being a collaborative team member.
The ability to lift and carry supplies, crates, and dogs as needed.
No allergies that prevent you from safely working around animals.
A valid driver’s license, reliable transportation, and an insurable driving record for company vehicle use.
The ability to complete an annual criminal-history background check

Nice to have:

Previous animal shelter, rescue, kennel, veterinary, or dog-care experience.
Adoption counseling or customer service experience.
Experience working at community events, festivals, or public programs.
Experience working with shelter or customer-management database software.
Knowledge of canine behavior and body language.
Experience safely transporting and handling dogs in public environments.

Opportunities this role will provide

Hands-on experience with shelter dogs and the adoption process.
Experience working alongside veterinary, behavior, animal-care, placement, and adoption professionals.
Ongoing feedback, learning, and professional development.
Opportunities to build customer service, dog-handling, event, and nonprofit experience.
The chance to help dogs move from shelters into safe and loving homes.
A multidisciplinary approach to sheltering and animal welfare.

What’s it like at Gigi’s?

Think of us as shelter medicine, meets private practice, meets education and research, meets adoption – all for the rural dogs and the people that care for them; from that rural pup that needs lifesaving parvo treatment to the rural shelter professional who is looking for ideas to help a fearful dog.

We’re here to create partnerships, to learn, and to grow through challenging each other and collaborating. We are chill and supportive, but professional and driven. Most importantly, we aren’t an adventure for everyone, but for those who get it and get us, will be happy they joined.

Pay: From $15.00 per hour

Application Question(s):

Are you available to work the required schedule for this position? Wednesday 1:00 pm to 7:30 pm, Thursday 4:00 pm to 9:00 pm, Friday 11:00 am to 6:30 pm, Saturday 11:00 to 6:30 pm

Education:

High school or equivalent (Required)

Work Location: In person
