Volunteer

Volunteer with us!

Volunteers Are Essential to Our Success Our incredible volunteers – including long-term volunteers, short-term volunteers, foster parents, and volunteer groups – act as an extension of our staff, helping us care for thousands of animals every year. In 2024 alone, our volunteers dedicated over 18,000 hours to improving the lives of the animals in our care. We welcome you to join our team and make a difference!
