The adoption counselor plays a vital role in the successful placement of animals rescued by San Antonio Pets Alive. Placement is facilitated by the counselor through an application process initiated by an individual who is interested in either fostering or adopting any animal(s) from SAPA. In most cases, the counselor will be the first and only SAPA representative an individual will meet so it is critical that our counselors deliver outstanding service and support each and every time. This position will help with adoptions and greeting new people who come on site.

Description
San Antonio Pets Alive! (SAPA!) was founded in 2012 to help address alarming euthanasia rates in the city. SAPA! is unique-it is the only high paced, high-volume rescue in San Antonio, saving 6,000 at-risk cats and dogs annually.
Since its inception, SAPA! has saved more than 64,000 dogs and cats. SAPA! provides safety nets for the dogs and cats that fall through the cracks of all other lifesaving options and end up on the euthanasia lists, often with just hours to be saved. SAPA! promotes the availability of these dogs and cats to other rescues, adopters and fosters.

- Has saved more than 64,000 lives since its inception in 2012
- Rescues around 6,000 animals from euthanasia every year
- Transports more than 1,000 to new lives annually
