Get Involved and Help Animals

Volunteer

From walking dogs to cleaning kennels, helping with paperwork, or comforting a nervous cat — every task makes a difference. Volunteers are the heart of what we do, and there’s always something meaningful to do here at the shelter.

If you’re ready to roll up your sleeves and be part of a team that loves animals as much as you do, fill out our Volunteer Application and we’ll get you started right away.

Foster A Pet

Fostering is one of the most powerful ways to help animals in need. By opening your home temporarily, you give pets the time and care they need to grow, heal, and get ready for adoption. We provide the supplies — you provide the love.

If you’ve got room in your heart and home, complete our Foster Application to start saving lives today.

Current High Priority Needs

We’re especially looking for:


🐾 Puppy & Kitten Fosters – Give the youngest and most vulnerable animals a safe place to grow.
🐕 Dog Walkers – Help our pups stretch their legs and enjoy some sunshine.
🎉 Adoption Event Helpers – Assist with setup, greeting visitors, and celebrating matches made in heaven!

If one (or all!) of these sound like a fit, we’d love to have you on the team.

Not everyone can foster or volunteer — and that’s okay! Every gift, big or small, helps us care for the animals who need it most. From food and medical care to cozy bedding and toys, your generosity keeps tails wagging and hearts full here at the shelter.
