North Star Rescue is looking for adult volunteers 18+ who can help with the day to day care, cleaning, and socialization of our small animals which include ourincluding guinea pigs, rats, hamsters, mice and chinchillas. Previous pet rodent experience is a plus, but not a prerequisite.
We do have a Junior Volunteer Program for youth 7 - 17, but this program has limited spaces. An adult is required to accompany a Junior Volunteer.
An orientation meeting is mandatory and subsequent training on all of the animals' needs will be given during regular volunteer shifts.

Mission Statement
North Star Rescue's mission is to assist with the rescue and placement of at risk pet rodents in California shelters and to provide education on proper care to help benefit pet rodents everywhere.
Description
North Star Rescue is a 501(c)3 Non-Profit Organization based in the San Francisco Bay Area dedicated to the welfare of small companion animals. We are the only rescue organization in the San Francisco Bay Area specifically dedicated to all species of pet rodents. North Star Rescue provides a variety of services to help small companion animals, including: Rescue and Foster Services for California Shelters, Public Adoptions of Small Animals, Behavioral Advice, Educational Events and More. Unlike a traditional shelter, North Star Rescue has no central location. We are a network of foster homes run by dedicated volunteers who have united under the common goal of keeping small animals from being euthanized when they have nowhere else to go.
