Volunteer
We Love Volunteers! Regular, dependable cat cleaners and dog walkers are needed and appreciated! Please let us know if you can commit to their care. Our cats and dogs depend on us for care every single day - weekends, holidays, bad weather are no exception. Dog walking training sessions are offered on the 2nd and 4th Wednesday of each month, 6:30 p.m. Cat training is scheduled on an individual basis. NOTE: Those 16 and younger must be accompanied by a parent/guardian and must be at least 12 to walk dogs.
