**We would love to have you at Cincinnati Animal CARE, however, this opportunity is only suitable for those who plan to volunteer on a regular basis. Before you begin all volunteers MUST apply online at cincinnatianimalcare.org/volunteer and complete the required volunteer onboarding and training process. DO NOT come to the shelter until training has been completed and you have signed up for a volunteer shift on CAC's platform My Impact Page. Signing up on UC's platform does not translate to CAC's schedule and you run the risk of being turned away. Volunteer hours will NOT be approved until you have completed all volunteer training and your hours have been recorded on your My Impact Page and verified. If volunteer hours can't be verified in our system they will be denied.**
Enrichment is an important part of animal care at CAC, it helps to keep our dogs from getting bored and keeps their body and minds active. Enrichment serves as the fun and engaging items that our dogs get to play with while in their kennels including kongs, lick mats, pupsicles and more! Enrichment engages a dog's mind and senses to help reduce stress and overall leads to better mental and physical health... in a shelter environment this is especially crucial! During a shift volunteers will help with a variety of tasks including: prepping enrichment items, distributing enrichment items into or on kennels, cleaning or putting away enrichment items, cleaning or organizing the enrichment room.
This opportunity occurs at both Colerain and Dane.
