Description

Become an Adoption Advocate – Change a Dog’s Life from Anywhere!
Mobile County Animal Shelter is looking for dedicated volunteers to help our dogs find loving homes — using your spare time, media skills, and passion!

What’s an Adoption Advocate?
As an Adoption Advocate, you’ll select one dog — or a small handful — to champion. You’ll visit the shelter to meet them, learn their personality, and gather photos or videos. Then, from home or on the go, you’ll create engaging posts, write heartfelt bios, and share their story across socials, community groups, and other online platforms to connect them with potential adopters.

What You’ll Do:

  • Visit the shelter to meet and photograph your chosen dog(s)

  • Write engaging bios that capture their personality

  • Promote them on socials, community pages, and adoption groups

  • Share updates to keep interest alive until they’re adopted

  • Stay informed on daily adoptions by keeping up with our Facebook and Adoptable page

Qualifications:

  • Must be comfortable and active on socials

  • Able to regularly check the shelter’s Facebook and Adoptable page to stay up-to-date

  • Good writing and communication skills

  • Passion for helping dogs and sharing their stories

  • Self-motivated and able to work independently in your spare time

Why It Matters:
Your posts could be the reason someone falls in love with a dog they’ve never met — turning a kennel stay into a forever home. Help tails wag and hearts connect
