1 day ago

Nashville, Tennessee, United States Nashville Humane Association Full time $32,000 - $40,000 per year

An Animal Care/Kennel Tech at Nashville Humane loves animals. This is a Direct Animal Care position at the shelter. This means an Animal Care Tech spends their days at Nashville's favorite animal shelter helping tend to the needs of the most amazing shelter dogs and cats ever. They love and care for them until the pets find their forever homes.

This Animal Care/Kennel Tech position is a Part Time position at NHA, which means 29 hours/week. We're looking for someone who is able to work flexible hours, including some early evenings (the shelter closes at 5:30 p.m. daily), weekends, and sometimes holidays.

An NHA Animal Care/Kennel Tech is responsible for maintaining the day-to-day care of NHA's shelter pets including a safe and sanitary facility for animals and people, as well as providing humane handling and care for all shelter animals. Animal Care Techs should enjoy spending time with animals of all shapes and sizes, dogs and cats, as their main job function is tending to the needs of the shelter pets and direct animal care.

  • Job duties include: handling, care, feeding, enrichment, basic training, and cleaning of kennel areas.
  • Must be physically active, reliable, compassionate and willing to learn and follow NHA protocols for cleaning, sanitation, animal handling, and all shelter policies and procures.

Who You Are:

  • First and foremost, you're a hard worker. You're diligent. You see things through. You care about doing the job, and ensuring that the job is done right. Also, you're a self-starter.
  • You're someone who loves pets of all kinds, and wants to be part of something special. NHA is a mission based organization that has been working to help end pet homelessness for 75 years.
  • You have good energy and like to be on your feet. This isn't a desk job. You're caring for dogs and cats. You're feeding. You're playing. You're giving treats. You're walking. You're cleaning. You're training. But you're not doing a lot of sitting.
  • You're a problem solver. When you see an issue you don't run from it, you want to fix it.
  • You're a team player. Nashville Humane is a big team and every part works together to help get pets adopted. The Animal Care team works together to ensure that all the pets in the shelter are cared for and attended to. That's priority number one.

Who We Are:

Since 1946, Nashville Humane Association has been helping homeless and adoptable pets find forever homes and is one of Nashville's oldest and most beloved not-for-profit organizations. Nashville Humane is committed to promoting humane education, controlling pet overpopulation and finding responsible homes for the homeless and adoptable pet community in Nashville, throughout Tennessee, and all across the globe.
