Animal Rescue Project Volunteer Application

Join our team of smiling faces

We need the gift of your time and talent!

Volunteers are the lifeblood of Animal Rescue Project. We look to volunteers to walk dogs, socialize cats, cuddle with kittens and puppies, bathe and groom animals in need, and so many other hands-on interactions with pets.

We also need volunteers to help with fund-raising, marketing, and administrative tasks.

Whatever your talents and interests, we have a role for you.

The first step in the process is to complete and submit a Volunteer Application. Once we receive your application we will schedule you for an orientation session.
