Job Description
Immediate Work Camper Opening at Desert Haven Animal Rescue, New Mexico
Come join our team and help us take care of our animals. Preference given to applicants who have experience with dogs or vet tech experience. We are open to single or couple. Contact Greta for more information at 575-740-0643 (text preferred).
At Desert Haven Animal Rescue (DHAR) our animal care-takers work as part of a team to help care for companion animals so applicants must enjoy being with cats and dogs. You will help socialize, clean up after, and exercise our dogs and puppies and also provide care, attention and clean up for our cat and kitten populations. Your pets are welcomed. Sorry, no kids.
We offer no pay for our animal care-taker position but provide a FHU (onsite at our small, no-frills RV Park) in exchange for 15-17 hours a week of volunteering per person.
Desert Haven, which is operated by the Sierra County Humane Society, is a non-profit 501(c)(3), no-kill animal rescue located between Las Cruces and Albuquerque, New Mexico.
Our five-acre property is situated in a peaceful country setting in the high desert, near Truth or Consequences, NM. From Desert Haven, it’s 2 miles to a convenience store and about 4 miles to grocery. It’s a five-minute hike across BLM land to the riverbank of the Rio Grande. For water enthusiasts, Caballo Lake is ten miles south of us and Elephant Butte Lake and State Park ten miles to the north. The town of Truth or Consequences boasts an eclectic mix of art and ranch and has hot springs, live music, something for everyone to enjoy.
We would love to have you help us provide high quality care to animals in need and help prepare our furballs for adoptive homes.
