Why Volunteer?
Volunteers have many different reasons for helping, from simply wanting contact with animals and meeting new people, to learning new skills before committing to a new career in animal welfare. We could never accomplish all that we do for our animals without our beloved volunteers.

There is a minimum age requirement of 14 years for all volunteers, and anyone under the age of 18 must be accompanied by a parent or guardian. Some positions have a time commitment of six or more months. 

How to Become a WHS Volunteer

1. Fill out a Volunteer Application and Waiver, and review our Policies.

2. Attend a Volunteer Orientation and bring your Volunteer Application and signed Waiver with you.

3. Once accepted into the program, speak with the Community Outreach Director to determine the best route for beginning your volunteer work. Some volunteer opportunities are seasonal, some require additional training and some may be filled to capacity.
