Any potential volunteer must be 18 years of age. If you wish to bring your child to assist you during your volunteer hours, they must be 10 years or older and submit an application as well. All parties volunteering must be trained. All volunteers under the age of 18 must stay with their guardian at all times while at the Sanctuary.
We can't make the Sanctuary a success without our greatest resource...YOU! We ask that you help 2 hours a week and make a one year commitment. Of course, you are welcome to volunteer more than 2 hours because we are sure once you start spending time with our seniors, you will want to be here with them more often! Volunteer Training sessions are once a month. The Volunteer Coordinator will contact you regarding the next session once your application has been received.
To become a volunteer:
  • Fill out our online volunteer application here.
  • The volunteer coordinator will call you regarding your interests via email within 2-4 days of receipt of the application about upcoming orientation and training dates.
  • Attend a volunteer training at the Sanctuary.
  • Sign up for a 2 hour time block to volunteer at the Sanctuary.
  • Meet the dogs and feel your heart grow 3 sizes!!
We currently have volunteer opportunities in many different areas. Don't see something you're interested in? Let us know where your passions lie and if it helps our senior dogs, we're happy to explore it!
