Therefore, we are staffing shifts of feeders who can drop by the store once a week either in the morning or the evening to refresh their food, water, and litter. This job comes with a commitment because we&#8217;re talking about the direct welfare of the cats.<\/p>\n<p>Petco am\/pm feeders at the <strong>Annandale, VA<\/strong> location.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Specialized Skills &#8211; Veterinary Assistance<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>We&#8217;re always looking for vet techs and nurses to help us out with the routine medical tasks we might be able to handle ourselves. We drastically reduce our costs when we are able to combo test kitties in their foster home, insert microchips, and other medical tasks that not the average volunteer would be able to manage. We love partnering with veterinary professionals that want to give back to the community by partnering with us!<\/p>\n<p>And of course there&#8217;s the skills we didn&#8217;t even know we needed!<\/p>\n<div><label for=\"firstName\">First<\/label>&nbsp;<span class=\"req\">*<\/span><input id=\"firstName\" tabindex=\"1\" maxlength=\"255\" name=\"firstName\" size=\"14\" type=\"text\" value=\"\"\/><span id=\"firstNameErr\" class=\"err\" style=\"visibility: hidden;\">Required field<\/span><\/div>\n<div><label for=\"lastName\">Last<\/label>&nbsp;<span class=\"req\">*<\/span><input id=\"lastName\" tabindex=\"2\" maxlength=\"255\" name=\"lastName\" size=\"14\" type=\"text\" value=\"\"\/><span id=\"lastNameErr\" class=\"err\" style=\"visibility: hidden;\">Required field<\/span><\/div>\n<div><label id=\"phoneNumberLabel\" for=\"phoneNumber\">Phone Number<\/label>&nbsp;<span class=\"req\">*<\/span><input id=\"phoneNumber\" tabindex=\"3\" maxlength=\"20\" name=\"phoneNumber\" type=\"text\" value=\"\"\/><span id=\"phoneNumberErr\" class=\"err\" style=\"visibility: hidden;\">Required field<\/span><\/div>\n<div><label id=\"emailLabel\" for=\"email\">Email<\/label>&nbsp;<span class=\"req\">*<\/span><input id=\"email\" tabindex=\"4\" maxlength=\"255\" name=\"email\" type=\"text\" value=\"\"\/><span id=\"emailErr\" class=\"err\" style=\"visibility: hidden;\">Required field<\/span><\/div>\n<div>\n<hr \/>\n<\/div>\n<div><label id=\"addressLine1Label\" for=\"addressLine1\">Address Line 1<\/label>&nbsp;<span class=\"req\">*<\/span><br \/>\n<input id=\"addressLine1\" tabindex=\"5\" maxlength=\"255\" name=\"addressLine1\" type=\"text\" value=\"\"\/><br \/>\n<span id=\"addressLine1Err\" class=\"err\" style=\"visibility: hidden;\">Required field<\/span><\/div>\n<div><label id=\"addressLine2Label\" for=\"addressLine2\">Address Line 2<\/label><input id=\"addressLine2\" tabindex=\"6\" maxlength=\"255\" name=\"addressLine2\" type=\"text\" value=\"\"\/><\/div>\n<div><label id=\"cityLabel\" for=\"city\">City<\/label>&nbsp;<span class=\"req\">*<\/span><input id=\"city\" tabindex=\"7\" maxlength=\"255\" name=\"city\" type=\"text\" value=\"\"\/><span id=\"cityErr\" class=\"err\" style=\"visibility: hidden;\">Required field<\/span><\/div>\n<div><label id=\"stateLabel\" for=\"state\">State<\/label>&nbsp;<span class=\"req\">*<\/span><input id=\"state\" tabindex=\"8\" maxlength=\"255\" name=\"state\" type=\"text\" value=\"\"\/><span id=\"stateErr\" class=\"err\" style=\"visibility: hidden;\">Required field<\/span><\/div>\n<div><label id=\"zipCodeLabel\" for=\"zipCode\">Zip Code<\/label>&nbsp;<span class=\"req\">*<\/span><input id=\"zipCode\" tabindex=\"9\" maxlength=\"10\" name=\"zipCode\" type=\"text\" value=\"\"\/><span id=\"zipCodeErr\" class=\"err\" style=\"visibility: hidden;\">Required field<\/span><\/div>\n<div>\n<hr \/>\n<\/div>\n<div><label id=\"activitiesLabel\">Are you interested in any of the following activities?<\/label>&nbsp;<span class=\"req\">*<\/span><br \/>\n<input id=\"activities1\" tabindex=\"10\" name=\"activities1\" type=\"checkbox\" value=\"Foster cats or kittens\"\/>&nbsp;Foster cats or kittens<br \/>\n<input id=\"activities2\" tabindex=\"11\" name=\"activities2\" type=\"checkbox\" value=\"Transport kitties to our vet during work hours\"\/>&nbsp;Transport kitties to our vet during work hours<br \/>\n<input id=\"activities3\" tabindex=\"12\" name=\"activities3\" type=\"checkbox\" value=\"Staff a small (possibly one cage) event\"\/>&nbsp;Staff a small (possibly one cage) event<br \/>\n<input id=\"activities4\" tabindex=\"13\" name=\"activities4\" type=\"checkbox\" value=\"Help at larger adoption events\"\/>&nbsp;Help at larger adoption events<br \/>\n<input id=\"activities5\" tabindex=\"14\" name=\"activities5\" type=\"checkbox\" value=\"Feed the Annandale Petco kitties - AM shift\"\/>&nbsp;Feed the Annandale Petco kitties &#8211;
