Some dogs and cats need a little extra love and personal attention, and that’s where our incredible volunteers step in! Whether it’s offering a comforting presence to a shy animal by sitting quietly by their side or engaging an energetic pup in a fun-filled play session, every moment spent with them makes a difference. Our animal socialization volunteers provide one-on-one attention for those in need of a little extra time. This program ensures that these special pets get the companionship, confidence, and care they need, helping them feel safe, happy, and ready for their forever homes!
Socialization volunteers can choose to spend time with both dogs and cats, or they can choose to focus on one or the other. These volunteers will also sometimes help to prep enrichment items for the animals to enjoy at a later time.
Volunteers sign up for days based on their availability (no weekly commitment required). A Google calendar is used for sign-ups. Volunteers perform their duties between 9am and 5pm and spend as long as they like interacting with selected pets. Age 18 or older.
