Pasadena Humane is more than an animal shelter; we are a community-supported animal resource center providing compassion and care for all animals. Since 1903, Pasadena Humane has offered lifesaving programs and services for animals and the people who love them in the Greater Los Angeles Area. At our Pasadena campus, we provide shelter, dedicated care and new beginnings for thousands of our community’s most vulnerable animals every year. In addition to pet adoptions and foster, we focus on programs and services aimed at helping people care for and keep their pets, such as free and low-cost spay/neuter and vaccines, a pet food bank, and an animal support call center. In 2021, Pasadena Humane helped nearly 40,000 animals through adoptions, wildlife rehabilitation, lost & found, veterinary services, and surrender prevention assistance.

Pros: The best part is definitely the mission and the people you work with. Everyone genuinely cares about the animals and it fosters a strong sense of teamwork. There are opportunities to learn a lot about animal behavior and care, which is great for career growth in this field. Seeing adoptions happen is incredibly fulfilling.
Cons: Workload can be intense, especially during peak seasons or adoption events, which sometimes impacts work-life balance. Communication regarding policy changes or operational adjustments could be more streamlined. Pay isn't the highest, but competitive for the non-profit animal welfare industry.
Advice to Management: Consider implementing clearer communication channels for operational updates and potentially exploring ways to better manage workload during exceptionally busy periods to support staff well-being.
