Volunteers are vital at the Center. As a private, non-profit agency, we rely on the assistance of caring and hard-working volunteers in all of our programs throughout the year. Volunteers make a huge difference in the lives of our animals and our staff. Cleaning and grooming a shelter animal, giving them a meal, a blanket, a walk, and a hug will touch your heart and bring you back for more.

We have many ways that you can help, including:

• Walking dogs
• Socializing cats
• Cleaning cat cages
• Cleaning dog kennels
• Building maintenance
• Landscaping
• Transporting animals to events
• Fundraising
• Off-site adoptions
• Vaccination clinic assistance
• Spay/neuter assistance
• Special events
• Fostering animals
