Our Dog Carers form part of a large team of staff and volunteers implementing a high-quality care provision and supporting a rehoming journey through assessment, behaviour modification, and high-quality customer service.

  • To introduce, translate, and deliver training and behaviour plans to Pet Seekers in a user-friendly way to ensure the individual dog's requirements are understood and taken on in the new home.

They will also be a strong team player, able to have a positive outlook in what can be an emotionally demanding role, and be able to perform tasks of a physical nature such as dog walking 3-4 hours a day in all weathers.
