The Animal Foundation makes a difference in the Las Vegas community by saving the lives of more than 20,000 lost, abandoned, and homeless animals annually.
This was made possible by the combination of individual talent and great teamwork, which is why one of our most important investments is our team members.

Relax, We’ve Got You Covered
The Animal Foundation pays full-time team members’ monthly premiums for dental, vision, short-term disability, and life insurance. The Animal Foundation also contributes to team members’ premiums for medical insurance. Supplemental coverage is available at each team member’s expense. Coverage for family members, including domestic partners, is also available for most plans at the team member’s expense.
Work-Life Balance
We believe that quality time outside of work is vital to satisfaction at work. That’s why our PTO (paid time off) plan gives full-time team members the flexibility to take time off when they need it most. This helps our team members come back refreshed and ready to continue helping us to achieve our mission.
Saving for Your Future
The Animal Foundation offers a 401(K) retirement plan for all team members that matches 50% of what you contribute up to 6% of your salary. This plan vests at a rate of 20% per anniversary year with 100% vested on your fifth anniversary.
