This is not a one-time or short-term volunteer opportunity. We are looking for volunteers to make a long-term commitment to volunteer at least 8 hours per month.
Join our community of animal- and fashion-loving women of all ages at WearWoof! WearWoof is the region's only animal welfare organization that combines fashion and the mission to save the lives of homeless animals!
Did you know that 9,000 homeless dogs and cats will die each day in American animal shelters, simply because no one adopted them? Locally, an estimated 20,000 dogs, cats, kittens and puppies will not make it out of our shelters alive this year.
At WearWoof, our mission is to end pet homelessness in Western PA by helping our shelters and rescues to adopt out more animals, offer free and low-cost spay/neuter programs, deal with medical emergencies and educate the community about pet homelessness.
We raise money for these important programs through our beautiful women's resale boutique, The WearWoof Shop! Fashionable, animal-loving women donate their women's and junior's clothing to us and we turn it into funding for homeless animals!
Our Shop Volunteers are AWESOME! They ring up purchases, dress the mannequins, assist customers, inform people about our mission, sort and prep new inventory, and play with our adorable Shop Cat, Dolly.
Become a Shop Volunteer today! We are looking for women of all ages (16 and up) to volunteer on Saturdays in our Shop, which is located at McIntyre Square in the North Hills.
This is a great opportunity for high school and college students looking for service-learning projects, stay-at-home moms, retired ladies, or anyone who is looking to make new friends while making a difference in the lives of homeless dogs, cats, kittens, puppies, reptiles, birds and even farm animals!
Contact us TODAY for info and to complete a Volunteer Application!

Mission Statement
WearWoof’s Mission is to establish Pittsburgh as the Middle Atlantic region’s most pet-friendly city by supporting the work of like-minded shelters, rescues and organizations in ending pet homelessness, providing resources and education for responsible pet ownership, and aiding the efforts of small, volunteer based local rescues through the consolidation of information, resources and support.
Description
WearWoof is not a shelter or rescue. We are an animal welfare organization that operates a women’s resale shop. Our goal is to support the work of approved shelters and rescues whose mission is aligned with ours. Although we support the efforts Pittsburgh area Shelter and Rescue Partners of all sizes, we are especially attentive to the needs of smaller rescues and shelters who are big on heart but low on resources. Proceeds from sales at the shop, as well as our other fundraising activities, are directed toward our Shelter and Rescue Partners. These Partners are local groups and organizations that must undergo an application and vetting process before being approved to receive WearWoof funding and support.
