If you have a love for animals, we would love to have you join us! Whether you are interested in dog walking, cat care, dog bathing and grooming, greeters program, event planning, or opening your home to a foster animal, we can always use your help. If you have a special talent, for example, photography, website or computer skills, carpentry or art, we can work together to find creative ways to use your talent.
Volunteers must be at least 18 years of age or older to assist in our dog walking/training program and 16 years of age or older to assist in our cat care and small animal programs.16-17 year olds must be accompanied by a parent or guardian at an orientation. We request that all volunteers commit to a minimum of 2 hours per week, but hope you will come more often. A knowledgeable and trained person that volunteers consistently is truly a benefit to the animals in our care.
