Animal Care Specialist

Fluffy Feather Farm | Harvard, IL

About Fluffy Feather Farm

Fluffy Feather Farm is a private, family-run animal facility located in Harvard, Illinois. We care for a wide variety of animals and take pride in maintaining a clean, calm, and thoughtfully managed environment every single day.

Our animals include a mix of large and small species—such as Mini Highland Cows, goats, donkeys, chickens, ducks, and other farm animals—and our daily work requires both strong animal handling skills and a high level of attention to detail.

Our standard of care is similar to what you would expect in a zoo or professional animal care facility: consistent routines, close daily observation, safety-first practices, and an emphasis on presentation and cleanliness.

We are looking for an Animal Care Specialist who genuinely enjoys working with animals, notices the small things, and takes pride in doing the work the right way.

Position Overview

The Animal Care Specialist supports daily animal care operations across the property. This role is hands-on and active, and includes feeding, cleaning, observation, and maintaining safe and organized animal spaces. You’ll work closely with our team to keep animal areas running smoothly and to ensure animals are healthy, calm, and well cared for.

Key Responsibilities

Provide daily hands-on care for animals (feeding, watering, cleaning, bedding, and routine care)
Perform daily observation checks and report changes in behavior, appetite, movement, or overall condition
Maintain clean, safe, and well-organized barns, pens, coops, and animal areas
Assist with animal handling, movement, and basic husbandry as needed
Follow established health, safety, and biosecurity practices
Support animal wellness efforts in coordination with farm leadership and veterinary guidance
Safely operate farm vehicles and equipment on the property (training provided as needed)
Assist with general property upkeep related to animal care (organized storage areas, tools, supplies, waterers, etc.)
Work as part of a team—communicating clearly, staying on task, and maintaining consistent standards

Qualifications

Previous experience working with animals is strongly preferred (zoo, animal care facility, veterinary, equine, farm, or similar environments)
Comfortable working hands-on with animals of various sizes and temperaments
Strong attention to detail and ability to notice subtle changes in animal behavior, health, or environment
Calm, safety-minded approach around animals and equipment
Ability to follow routines, protocols, and directions while staying adaptable to daily priorities
Physically capable of performing daily animal care tasks, including lifting up to 75lbs, bending, cleaning, and working outdoors in all weather conditions
Valid driver’s license and ability to safely operate vehicles on the property
Reliable, punctual, and able to work both independently and as part of a team

Work Environment

This is an active, hands-on role that involves working outdoors and in barns year-round. Some tasks will involve dust, bedding, weather changes, and physical activity throughout the day. We value team members who bring a steady positive attitude, strong work ethic, and genuine care for animals.

How to Apply

Please submit your application through Indeed along with a cover letter explaining your interest in this role and any relevant animal care experience.

To be considered for this position, a cover letter is required. Applications submitted without a cover letter will not be reviewed.

We appreciate your interest in Fluffy Feather Farm and look forward to connecting with candidates who share our commitment to high-quality animal care.
