Join our cleaning crews at SAFE Haven

Please read what the job entails and if you would like to apply , complete and send the application form at the bottom of the page

SAFE Haven is moving to Mona Vale from June 1st and we’re looking for dedicated local volunteers to join our Cleaning Crews who care for our cats 7 days a week, with each shift running from 10am to 1pm.

We ask all volunteers to become become members of SAFE and (optionally) purchase a SAFE T-shirt to wear on shift.

This is a very important job which keeps our cats healthy & comfortable. Working as part of the team you will find yourself cleaning the cat suites, washing food bowls, scoops and litter trays and sweeping and mopping the floors. And when that’s all done hopefully there’s time left to socialise with the cats. 😸

General guidelines for Cleaning Crew

As part of a small team, your tasks will include:

  • Cleaning cat suites
  • Washing food bowls, litter trays and scoops
  • Sweeping and mopping floors
  • And, if time allows… spending some well-earned time socialising with the cats 😸

What we’re looking for:

  • Ability to work independently and follow detailed written protocols
  • A cooperative, team-focused attitude
  • Responsible and reliable approach
  • Aged 17+
  • Willingness to follow strict hygiene procedures to prevent the spread of disease

All suitable volunteers will attend a 3-hour training session before starting.

Please note: as a small charity, we’re currently unable to take on Duke of Edinburgh volunteers due to supervision and administrative requirements.

Volunteering with SAFE is incredibly rewarding—you’ll be directly helping beautiful cats on their journey to a new home. Many volunteers find themselves falling in love… again and again!

If there are no current vacancies for your preferred days, we still encourage you to apply as positions can open up quickly and you may be called upon sooner than you think!

Before applying, please check your transport options to Mona Vale.
