About the job
The Tierdörfli Olten offers immediate help and protection for animals in distress. We care for found animals, surrendered animals, and injured animals and place them in new, supervised homes. At the same time, we look after holiday animals and offer tours, workshops, and courses for children and adults.
To strengthen our team, we are looking immediately or by arrangement for an intern in animal care (100%).
You are an open-minded, reliable, and team-oriented animal lover who has recently finished school and wishes to pursue training as an animal carer in the future. Besides a sense for practical work and robust health, you have good observational skills and attentiveness when dealing with animals. You are also not deterred by dirt and cleaning tasks nor by weekend and public holiday duties.
As an intern, we will give you an insight behind the scenes of daily animal shelter life and familiarise you with various areas of work. You can learn a great deal about our animals and the work of an animal carer. Your tasks will include, in particular, cleaning and disinfecting animal accommodations as well as feeding, caring for, and looking after our various charges.
Suitable candidates will have the opportunity to undertake training as a federally certified animal carer after completing their internship.
