    Description

    Dog Transporters Needed- A Home of Their Own Animal Rescue

    Join Our Transport Team - Help Move Dogs Toward a Better Life

    A Home of Their Own is committed to rescuing as many dogs and cats as possible and finding them the best forever homes. After adoption, we continue to support our community through education, training, and outreach to ensure lasting, loving bonds.

    We're currently seeking reliable transport volunteers to help move dogs safely and efficiently between locations. Transport is a crucial part of our rescue operations - it helps dogs get to vet appointments, fosters, and safe housing.

    Volunteer transport duties may include:

    • Driving dogs from foster homes or boarding facilities to veterinary appointments and back
    • Picking up dogs from a designated location (typically 30-60 minutes away) and transporting them to a kennel or foster home
    • Shuttling dogs between kennels and foster homes as needed

    Requirements:

    • A valid driver’s license, personal vehicle, and auto insurance
    • Ability to safely handle dogs (experience preferred but not required)
    • Willingness to communicate with our team and follow transport protocols

    If you have a reliable car and a heart for rescue, we’d love your help.
