The shelter is always in need of volunteers. Our volunteers come to us in many different ways. Some come to us through schools or community service. Others come to us through our volunteer organization, the Guild Committee.

Volunteers are needed at the shelter to help with feeding, cleaning, walking, grooming, laundry and odd jobs. There are also times when all that is needed is to give the animals some much needed attention.
