TO APPLY:

Please submit an email with the following information:

- Availability: Please specify the days and times you are available to work between Noon to 8 PM.

- Commute: Indicate your estimated commute time from your home to the Sanctuary (9978 N Friendly Country Road, Parks, AZ, 86018) and confirm that you have a reliable vehicle suitable for year-round travel, including inclement weather. See the below section regarding the Sanctuary Location.

- Motivation: Explain why you would be a good fit for this position, highlighting your relevant skills and experience.

- Resume: Please attach your resume, if available.

- Other: If you are currently in school, what are you studying? What are your long-term interests?

About the Sanctuary Location:

The Ark Cat Sanctuary is located in a beautiful, rural setting, 30 miles northwest of Flagstaff (9978 N Friendly Country Road, Parks, AZ, 86018) and about 12 miles north of the 1-40 exit to Parks, AZ. The last 6 miles to the Sanctuary is a well-maintained gravel Forest Service road that is typically plowed in the winter. A 2-wheel-drive car is generally adequate if the tires are in good condition. While the drive is scenic, it's important to be prepared for potential weather conditions, especially during winter months.

We are committed to providing a loving and nurturing environment for our feline residents. If you share our passion for animal welfare and are ready to make a positive impact, we encourage you to apply.
