Humane Society of the Pikes Peak Region (HSPPR)

Full-Time | On-Site

Be the First Step in an Animal's Journey

At HSPPR, every animal has a story-and every story begins with someone who cares.

As an Admissions Representative, you'll serve as the welcoming face of our organization for both people and animals during some of life's most emotional moments. Whether you're helping reunite a lost pet with their family, assisting an owner through a difficult surrender decision, providing resources to community members, or ensuring animals receive immediate care and shelter, you'll play a vital role in creating positive outcomes for animals and the people who love them.

If you thrive in a fast-paced environment, excel at customer service, and are passionate about animal welfare, we'd love to meet you.

Why This Role Matters

HSPPR's Mission: HSPPR offers compassionate care to animals, supports safe communities, and provides socially conscious sheltering.

The Admissions Representative directly supports this mission by serving as the first point of compassionate care for animals and people alike. Through safe animal intake, thoughtful customer interactions, and effective problem-solving, you'll help ensure every animal receives the care they need while providing exceptional support to our community.

What You'll Do

Deliver Exceptional Customer Service

Provide compassionate, empathetic assistance to customers experiencing a wide range of emotions.
Answer questions and educate the public about animal sheltering, pet overpopulation, adoption processes, and available community resources.
Communicate professionally through phone, email, and in-person interactions.
Assist community partners and pet owners with animal intake, reunification, and service requests.
Resolve concerns efficiently while maintaining a positive customer experience.

Support Animal Admissions and Care

Perform intake of stray, owned, surrendered, deceased, and community animals.
Triage animals and customers to determine appropriate services, including veterinary care or humane euthanasia.
Administer intake vaccinations for dogs and cats according to shelter protocols.
Assist with animal reclaims, licensing services, Trap-Neuter-Return (TNR) programs, and lost-and-found pet services.
Document animal behavior observations using objective, accurate language.

Maintain Accurate Records and Transactions

Process customer payments, donations, refunds, and related transactions.
Maintain detailed and accurate records regarding animal intake, customer interactions, bite reports, and animal locations.
Schedule appointments and ensure data integrity within shelter software systems.

Collaborate Across the Organization

Work closely with Veterinary Services, Animal Care, Behavior, Population Management, Animal Law Enforcement, and Volunteer teams.
Support volunteers by modeling safe and humane animal handling practices.
Contribute stories and photos that help showcase HSPPR's lifesaving work to donors and the community.

Ability to handle multiple priorities while maintaining accuracy and professionalism.
Comfortable working with animals of varying sizes, temperaments, and medical conditions.
High School Diploma or equivalent.

Advanced customer service training.
Knowledge of animal breeds, behavior, nutrition, and general care.
