Volunteer: Calling All CAT LOVERS!!!!Lucky Dog Animal Rescue is looking for volunteers who LOVE CATS to go to various Petsmart locations and care for our cats that live there while waiting to be adopted! Our cats are currently housed in 3 locations: Largo Petsmart (10464 Campus Way S, Largo, MD 20774), Oxon Hill Petsmart (6005 Oxon Hill Road Oxon Hill, MD 20745) and Rockville Petsmart (5154 Nicholson Ln, Kensington, MD 20895) We are looking for volunteers to go once a week and help maintain the cleanliness of the cat's condos in the cat centers. This includes scooping their litter box (or a full litter box change if needed), using the provided cleaners to sweep out and clean the condos to keep them sanitary, change out any dirty beds and toys with new fresh ones, making sure that they have fresh water and clean bowls and general just tidying up. It is really important that the cats are kept clean to prevent them getting sick. We also want volunteers to spend time playing with the cats and kittens so they get well socialized and handled routinely. After your visit we ask for a visit report letting us know how the cat(s) are doing, any observations on their personality, and your interactions with them. Pictures/videos are great too!The available hours are 9 am - 9 pm Mondays through Saturdays and 10 am - 7 pm on Sundays for Petsmart Locations. There isn't an hour requirement for this volunteer opportunity: we encourage people to sign up on a recurring basis ideally once a week.

Volunteer: Would you like to help DOGS and CATS get ADOPTED?Lucky Dog Animal Rescue is looking for volunteers that would like to be Cat Adoption Coordinators! We are a foster-based rescue in the VA, MD, DC area that pulls kittens and cats from high kill shelters across the rural south and places them in foster care to get adopted! We need volunteers willing to train to become Dog and Cat Adoption Coordinators and help us get these wonderful animals adopted! Interested in learning more - reach out to volunteering@luckydoganimalrescue.org and we will send you info on our next AC information session/training! About the Adoption Coordinator (AC) role: What is it? Adoption Coordinators are the main advocates for our dogs and cats! They not only work to match our animals with potential adopters, but they also serve as a critical resource to our foster parents. ACs choose the animals they want to be responsible for, ensure they are properly posted online, and discuss them with interest adopters. ACs review ALL applications that come in for those animals -- and if they are not previously pre-approved, ensure that we complete a vet check and landlord check (if applicable), conduct a phone screen, and, when needed, find a home visit volunteer. Adoption Coordinators are one of our most important groups of volunteers. Typically, ACs dedicate anywhere from 5-15 hours a week to Lucky Dog. Having regular access to email is super important! Adoption Coordinators are also required to attend at least 2 adoption events per month and 1 transport per month. This is a great opportunity to meet your dogs and cats and chat with their fosters! Training Needed? All Adoption Coordinators go through a virtual AC training and shadow at one of our Sunday adoption events. Once they have completed that, they will go through a mentoring phase before they work on their own.
