Full Job Description

Join the Team at Lucky Dog Refuge

This job isn’t easy, and it isn’t glamorous every day — but you’ll save lives, change dogs’ futures, and feel the reward of that every single day.

Some days are spent cleaning up after poopy puppies, walking 7+ miles in the rain, handling scared or reactive dogs, organizing supplies, loading dogs into cars for vet appointments, or working long hours on your feet in every weather condition imaginable.

But if you are the right person for this role, it will also be the most rewarding work of your life.

At Lucky Dog Refuge, you will save lives daily. You will help dogs who came from abuse, neglect, abandonment, medical crises, or unimaginable circumstances learn what love feels like for the very first time. You will watch terrified dogs transform into happy, confident companions. You will witness fairytale endings in real time. And in return, you will receive the kind of unconditional love and gratitude that only rescue dogs can give.

Rescue is not a job for people looking for “easy.”
It is for people looking for purpose.

Responsibilities

Safely handle dogs of all sizes, temperaments, and energy levels
Walk dogs extensively (often 7–8+ miles per shift)
Supervise and manage group dog play
Assist with dog introductions
Transport dogs to veterinary appointments and other rescue-related errands
Clean, sanitize, organize, and maintain the facility
Work outdoors in all weather conditions
Engage positively with volunteers, adopters, and the public
Work collaboratively with a fast-paced, highly team-oriented staff

Requirements

MUST LOVE DOGS
Prior dog handling experience, including difficult/reactive dogs
Comfortable multitasking in a fast-paced environment
Valid driver’s license
Willingness to jump in and “do it all”
Strong communication and teamwork skills
Comfortable speaking with and engaging people
Group play experience required
Dog introduction experience helpful but not required
Leadership or management experience preferred
Weekend and holiday availability required
18 years of age or older

Schedule & Commitment

Lucky Dog Refuge operates 7 days a week, 365 days a year. Our rescue operates approximately 91 hours per week, and shifts are typically:

7:00 AM–2:00 PM
or
1:00 PM–8:00 PM

Because this job takes a lot of training, consistency, and time for the dogs to build trust with staff, we’re looking for people interested in a long-term role. This is not a good fit for someone looking for short-term or seasonal work between jobs or school semesters.

Compensation

Pay will be evaluated based on experience.

As a nonprofit rescue, our payroll budget is more limited than many for-profit companies, but we do our best to offer competitive wages within the local dog care industry.
