Full Job Description

Auburn Valley Humane Society (AVHS) is looking for a Front Desk Associate to join our team of Animal Welfare Warriors at the animal shelter. We serve nearly 3,000 animals each year, and every interaction with a pet owner, adopter, volunteer, or community member helps shape their experience with our organization.

The Front Desk Associate is often the first person someone meets when they walk through our doors or call for help. Whether assisting a family with an adoption, helping a pet owner navigate a difficult situation, scheduling appointments, processing payments, or answering questions, this role plays an essential part in supporting both animals and the people who care about them.

Who are you?

You are an animal AND people lover. You understand that helping pets starts with helping people. You enjoy talking with the public and can remain calm, compassionate, and professional even during challenging conversations. You are organized, detail-oriented, and comfortable juggling multiple priorities at once. You enjoy a fast-paced environment where no two days are exactly alike. You are positive, adaptable, and committed to providing excellent customer service.

Does this sound like an amazing adventure? Click Apply. Let's chat.
