Good afternoon! We are looking for some amazing people to join our team here at Benchs as an ACT (animal care technician). It requires the ability to be constantly moving, animal handling, having lots of fun, and helping the community! We will be holding open interviews on Friday from 9am-3pm, and Saturday from 10am-3pm. Come on in, ring the doorbell, and ask for the manager! She'd be happy to chat about opportunities! Maybe we'll see you there! If you have any questions or would like to send over a resume, please send it to [email protected] 🐈‍⬛🐕‍🦺
