We are always looking for new volunteers.  Even if you only have a few hours each week that you could volunteer, the animals would appreciate it.   

Volunteers help care for animals' basic needs by picking up and washing towels and bowls, scooping litter pans, providing fresh food and water, poop-scooping, helping to clean and dry runs, grooming, walking, assisting the shelter in public education, and socializing with the animals. Volunteers also greet and direct visitors, file and help the staff in any way they can. If you would like to volunteer but don’t feel comfortable working at the shelter with the animals, there are many opportunities to help with animal transportation, working at special events, etc. 

How old do I have to be?

You must be at least 18 years old.  If you are under 18 years of age, (12 years old is the minimum age for young volunteers) your parent or other responsible adult must also become a volunteer and work with you at the Shelter.   

How do I become a Shelter volunteer?

Call or visit the Animal Shelter and ask for a volunteer packet and application or complete one on-line. Our Volunteer Coordinator will call and schedule a one hour orientation with you. The Shelter is open Monday - Friday, 10:00 a.m.-4:00 p.m. and Saturday, 10:00 a.m.-2:00 p.m.  Whether you want to come on a regular basis, stop by when you have some spare time, or help on a special project, our animals would love to have another loving human around.
