Description
Help make a difference in the lives of shelter dogs!
Volunteers provide our dogs with much-needed exercise, enrichment, and time outside of their kennels. Regular walks help reduce stress, provide mental and physical stimulation, and give our dogs opportunities to explore, socialize, and show off their personalities, ultimately helping them become happier and more adoptable.
What You'll Do
As a Dog Walking Volunteer, you will:
- Walk and exercise shelter dogs
- Provide positive socialization and enrichment
- Help dogs get a much-needed break from their kennels
- Support the overall well-being and adoptability of the dogs in our care
Volunteer Shifts
Dog walking volunteers are needed every day of the week, Monday through Sunday with the following shifts available:
- 8:00 AM–10:00 AM
- 10:00 AM–12:00 PM
- 12:00 PM–2:00 PM
- 2:00 PM–4:00 PM
- 4:00 PM–6:00 PM
If you love dogs, enjoy being active, and want to make a meaningful difference in the lives of animals waiting for their forever homes, we'd love to have you join our team!
