We are thrilled you want to volunteer with us. Our volunteers are the backbone of our rescue. We can't wait to introduce you to our organization and the team that makes it all happen. Please take a few minutes to read through the website. Learn our foster and adoption processes (no quizzes...we promise), and read the stories of the animals whose lives have been changed through PAWS Animal Shelter. When you're ready, please fill out our VOLUNTEER APPLICATION!
Supplies and monetary donations are always appreciated. Check out this page for more information on ways to donate.
We participate in several events in the community. Join us! Help us get the word out about the events on social media, your work, church, school . . . anywhere you meet up with people. We often need help at these events. Let us know you're available to pitch in.
Consider hosting a bake sale, organize a raffle . . . the options are endless. Contact us so we can help you get the resources you need to create an amazing event.
Share posts on social media. When friends and family are looking to add a pet to their family, send them to us.
When we bring in animals, we often need help getting the animals ready to go their foster homes.
We have foster families located in various cities across the United States. Sometimes we need volunteers to drive animals to a "meet up" city to get animals to their new foster homes.
Provide love, care, and a home for one (or more!) of our animals until they are ready to find their family.
Instead of adopting through a breeder or pet store, adopt one of our amazing animals. Your life will never be the same!
