Volunteer

Good company. Great purpose.

The shelter is a charity run predominantly by volunteers. We have so many opportunities to get involved! Our shelter would not be able to function without the help of volunteers, animal lovers, and the community we live in.

We can only accept applications for volunteers over 18 years of age.

Opportunities

Ways to get involved.

Dog walking

Get some exercise for yourself and give our dogs some time out of their kennels. The dogs love the chance to sniff and interact with people.

Socializing

Why not spend some time petting our cats and dogs? Our animals always need more time and love than we can give.

Maintenance

The shelter is constantly in need of upgrading and repairs. Your involvement could be as simple as helping to paint or tidy the grounds.

Fundraising

We need people to organize or help with events, such as bake sales, yard sales, BBQs, walk-a-thons, or other events of your own making.
