Volunteer: Store Cat Caretaker (Highland Park Petco)

Twin Cities Pet Rescue is partnering with the Petco store in St. Paul (Highland Park) to house store cats for adoption! We need volunteers that can check in on the cats, deep clean their condos, and provide additional enrichment for the kitties while they are waiting to be adopted!

 

Volunteers can choose their own schedule and can visit the store as often as once a month to a couple times a week. Times are also very flexible and just need to be within store hours. We use the Slack app to connect the store cat team with each other and share updates on visits. So having a mobile phone or computer that can access the internet is important. Visits are typically 30 mins each but can be longer if you want! Overall, this is a very flexible role that provides hands-on cat care without having kitties physically in your home!
