Pet therapy volunteer
caris healthcareColumbia (SC)
About the role
If you have an amazing pet that is up to date on shots and loves people, We have an opportunity for you! Numerous Hospice patients in facilities have had to relinquish their beloved pets. This is where pet therapy comes in. We would get to go to facilities and let your fur baby get some love and attention. All while giving back and seeing the absolute joy that you and your pet can bring! I have done this for 16 years and it is life changing for these patients. A good citizen certificate is required. I can of course assist you with that. The certificate is offered very cheaply. If your pet already knows the commands then you can just do the test without the class;-)
Before you apply
Applying takes about a minute. These four things decide how fast it moves after that.
Your profile is current
It's what we read first. Occupations, seniority and locations matter more than a long history.
Two examples you can talk through
Not a portfolio — just two pieces of work where you can explain the decisions and what you'd change.
A number in mind
What you're on now and what would make you move. We negotiate better when we know both.
Your notice period
Employers plan around it, and it's the question that stalls offers most often.
Once you apply, someone reads it and calls you before anything reaches the employer — usually within two working days.
