Description
Title: Foster & Transfer Assistant FLSA Status: Non-Exempt, Full-time
Help Animals Leave the Shelter and Thrive While Waiting for their Forever Home
At the ARL, foster homes and partnerships save lives every day. As a Foster & Transfer Assistant, you’ll help connect animals with foster families, coordinate placements and transfers, and support the volunteers who who make lifesaving care possible.
This is an ideal role for someone who loves both animals and people and especially someone who is organized, responsive, compassionate, and thrives in a fast-paced environment.
What You'll Do
In this role, you will support the daily operations of the ARL’s foster and transfer program by helping coordinate animal foster placements, maintain records, and ensure animals receive the care and resources they need while outside the shelter environment. You’ll communicate regularly with foster families to provide guidance, answer questions, and help coordinate veterinary and behavioral support for animals in foster.
You’ll also assist with preparing animals and documentation for transfers while partnering closely with the Adoptions team to help foster animals successfully find permanent homes. Part of your work will include gathering updates, photos, and bios from foster families for adoption and marketing purposes, while helping maintain positive relationships with foster volunteers and rescue partners.
This role also supports foster recruitment and engagement efforts and requires someone who can problem-solve quickly, stay organized, and provide excellent support in a fast-paced environment where priorities can shift throughout the day.
What We're Looking For
Successful candidates are strong communicators who enjoy working with both people and animals. They are organized, detail-oriented, and able to manage multiple responsibilities while maintaining professionalism and compassion. The ideal candidate is patient, adaptable, solution-focused, and comfortable navigating emotional or time-sensitive situations with care and good judgment.
Qualified applicants should have a high school diploma or GED and preferably at least one year of animal handling or animal care experience. Experience in customer service, volunteer coordination, veterinary medicine, animal sheltering, or rescue work is highly valued. Candidates should also have basic computer and Microsoft Office skills and possess a valid driver’s license with an acceptable driving record.
Working Conditions This position involves physical activity, including lifting up to 50 pounds, as well as extended periods of standing or sitting. The work environment includes regular exposure to animals and may involve odors, noise, dander, waste, and the possibility of scratches or bites, as well as exposure to contagious illnesses.
Why Work at ARL
Every foster placement creates space for another animal in need, and every transfer helps expand lifesaving capacity. In this role, your work directly helps animals move from shelter to safety, healing, and permanent homes. You’ll join a mission-driven team that cares deeply about animals, each other, and the community we serve.
Employment in this position is at-will, meaning that either the employee or ARL may terminate the employment relationship at any time.
In compliance with the Americans with Disabilities Act and applicable state regulations, ARL provides reasonable accommodations to qualified individuals with disabilities and encourages applicants to discuss potential accommodations.
