**Animal Care Worker**
**Temporary part-time and full-time positions available.**
**Who We Are**:
We are the Toronto Humane Society, here to promote the humane care and protection of all animals and to prevent cruelty and suffering. Following no kill principles, the Toronto Humane Society aspires to be a best-in-class animal shelter - working in partnership with the community to find creative solutions and improve outcomes for all animals.
We work hard to ensure animals feel loved and cared for. Our shelter provides a multitude of services alongside adoption, including high quality veterinary care, training and foster programs, and community spay and neuter services. THS is a well-oiled machine, in that all its moving parts work best when everyone’s working together. Our team is full of compassionate, driven, hard-working people who all want to create a better future for animals of all kind.
**Who You Are**:
A background in the animal care/shelter industry is not necessary, but is an asset. You would work closely with the Shelter Care team, as well as our educated trainers and veterinary technicians to ensure every animal is well taken care of. A general love of animals is appreciated, welcomed, and encouraged, but it’s important to note that this position is a whole lot more than playing with puppies - Animal care is a full time job
**What You Should Expect**:
A typical day in the life of an ACW involves dog walking, feeding, cleaning, moving and lifting of various tools and equipment, along with the operation of various cleaning tools and machinery. A valid G license is a definite asset.

It also involves periods of lifting, carrying, pushing, and/or pulling of heavy to moderately heavy objects and materials, and some combination of climbing and balancing to include stooping, kneeling, crouching, and crawling in order to complete all those essential tasks that keep our animals happy and healthy during their stay.
Performing these daily tasks also means that our animal care workers may be exposed to dirt, dust, pollen, odors, wetness, humidity, weather, temperature and noise extremes, hazardous materials, traffic hazards, bright/dim lights, toxic agents, animal/wildlife attacks, animal/human bites, disease, pathogenic substances, or rude/irate customers.
