Paws of L.A. Rescue is a foster-based, volunteer-run dog rescue based in Los Angeles, CA. As a Rescue Care Coordinator you will be providing communication, our resources, and a commitment to surrendering families, while our adoption team finds the perfect forever home for these dogs. The post-pandemic era has ushered in a significant increase in dog surrenders, posing challenges for both the dogs and the shelters which remain overcrowded.

This is a great way to be part of saving lives from the comfort of your own home. Typical duties overview: You receive a plea from a family looking to rehome a dog. You schedule the intake call and gather detailed information about the dog to assess which Program they are eligible to enroll into. Based on your assessment you’ll establish the Care Plan for the dog and continue communication with the family as their main point of contact. While the Adoption Coordinators find a forever home for the dog, you’ll update the team on any new findings or challenges for the Adoption team to keep in mind while they find a match. Once our Adoption Coordinators have vetted the perfect match you’ll help facilitate the transition remotely. Responsibilities: Conduct Intake calls to better understand the dog’s needs Approve their enrollment into one of our Programs Establish the Care Plan and if necessary, assign Tasks to the team Ensure accurate, timely documentation using our Case Management System concerning Intake, Enrollment and Care Plans.

You’ve likely been told that you’re SUPER easy to talk with! You have the excellent ability to communicate in a compassionate manner. You foresee and evaluate issues accurately while displaying sound judgment. You can commit to 2-3 hours per week to volunteering remotely.
