Dedicated Animal-loving Volunteers needed daily at our no-kill animal shelter. We need help with cleaning and feeding so that animals are ready for viewing and possible adoption by noon when the shelter opens to the public. We need dog walkers because our doggies love to walk! We need Event Planners to help us with Fundraisers to help defray vet costs.
Do you love animals? Are you interested in making a difference in the life of a shelter animal? We would love to have you stop by the shelter and become a member of our Volunteer Team!
Hours needed most are Weekends: 8-11am and 3-5pm
