The Animal Pad all-breed dog rescue in San Diego is in need of a couple of general Web Team Members! Essentially this role is just general maintenance on our website, including changing pages or text on those pages, mostly relatively simple fixes. Although ultimately, what we really need is a dedicated Web Developer (or two) who could handle more intricate/specialized work. This volunteer (or volunteers) would need to be proficient in HTML, CSS, and Javascript, as well as have familiarity with WordPress and how themes work. Being familiar with WordPress is pretty crucial, as this volunteer would be the person to add new pages on WordPress, as well as create new page themes and templates from scratch. If this is something you would be interested in, please fill out a Volunteer Application on our website: https://theanimalpad.org/volunteer/volunteer-application/

The Animal Pad has a super fun, hands-on adoption/fundraising event planned at Dirty Dogs Del Mar, and we need A LOT of volunteers to help us wash the pups! This volunteer opportunity is available to anyone who is interested - all ages welcome!! * All volunteers under the age of 16 must be accompanied by an adult during the entire event.* Where: Dirty Dogs & Meow in Del Mar (12853 El Camino Real Ste. 106, San Diego 92130) When: Saturday, June 19th from 11am-4pm Event Duties: There are 4 self service wash tubs located inside of the store, and we will need 2 volunteers at each tub to wash dogs. Since the event is 5 hours long, we'll be splitting it up into two separate volunteer shifts. The first group will volunteer from 11am-1:30pm, and the second group from 1:30pm-4pm. We will need at least 8 volunteers per shift, so 16+ volunteers in total! Although of course everyone is free to stay for the entire duration of the event! We'll be set up outside of the store with our TAP merch table, and we will also have a group of our adoptable TAP puppers at this event so you get twice the amount of puppy love! Dirty Dogs will be charging people $25 for the TAP Tribe volunteers to wash their dogs, and TAP will be receiving 50% of the proceeds collected from this event. So not only do you get to interact directly with the dogs, but you are also helping our future rescue efforts to keep saving even more deserving fur babies! ***All volunteers under the age of 16 must be accompanied by an adult during the entire event.*** Volunteers age 16+ are free to come solo! If this is something that you would be interested in, please fill out a Volunteer Application on our website and specify that you want to help at the Self Wash Takeover: https://theanimalpad.org/volunteer/volunteer-application/

The Animal Pad is looking to add to our Home Check team! Specifically, we are searching for virtual Home Checkers for the Foster team. Home checks are CRUCIAL in ensuring that we always send a foster or adopted pup to a safe, stable environment, and into a loving home. This entails the volunteer coordinating with the foster or adopter and going to their home to check it out and make sure it is suitable for our dogs. We'll let you know what to look for, but it is mostly just common sense stuff, such as making sure their home is safe, they have a fenced yard (if applicable), aren't dog hoarders, etc. A home check only happens when we have a new foster who has not worked with us before, or when someone wants to adopt one of our pups. ***Please note that we are currently conducting virtual home checks ONLY (via video chat) due to COVID numbers in SD County.*** ***A statement on Covid-19 and Home Checks:*** We understand that everyone's situation and comfort levels around Covid-19 are different. Out of respect for our team's safety and the safety of our applicants, we ask that you always wear a mask when performing home checks. Additionally, we will accommodate virtual home checks on a case by case basis, depending on the comfort level of those involved. The procedure for virtual home checks will follow the same procedures as in-person home checks. If this is something you would be interested in, please fill out an a Volunteer Application on our website: https://theanimalpad.org/volunteer/volunteer-application/

The Animal Pad always needs Transporters who are comfortable handling and transporting dogs to and from wherever they need to be within San Diego! The majority of our transport needs center around making sure our foster dogs can get to all of their vetting appointments (primarily at our own HQ/care facility, sometimes outside veterinary offices for surgeries) and adoption events that their foster is unable to bring them to. We are also sometimes in need of supply drops to our fosters as well as pick-ups, although this is much less frequent. Transporting is often overlooked because it doesn't seem quite as "glamorous" as adoption events, but having that quality, one-on-one time with the dogs and getting to build your own personal connection with them is truly second to none! If this is something you would be interested in, please fill out a Volunteer Application on our website: https://theanimalpad.org/volunteer/volunteer-application/

The Animal Pad is in need of 2-3 Foster-Event Coordinators to join our team! These volunteers will be the ones inviting our fosters and their foster dogs to all of our events, as well as helping to coordinate transport for the foster pups if the fosters are unable to attend. Since everything has started to open up again, we are now back into our usual full swing of events! We have an adoption/fundraising event pretty much once every week (sometimes twice in one week), and we always need our TAP foster pups signed up to attend these events.
