Please consider joining the Animal Care & Control volunteer team to provide the much needed tender loving care to the animals. Our volunteers give us the extra dimension we need to care for and serve our animals. Our volunteers assist with the following plus with many of our programs mentioned under our Donation section.
They help with all aspects of our operations, including our foster program. This program allows the volunteer to take animals into their own homes until they can be adopted. For reasons of age or health, this program allows more animals to have a second chance at adoption. Volunteers for this program must attend the special foster orientation session, and be at least 18 years of age. All animals remain the property of Animal Control Services until adopted. The kennel assistance program is for hands-on volunteers. Cleaning cages, feeding animals, and washing dishes are just some of the jobs the volunteers assist our kennel staff with in the daily routine of animal care.

Care is given to the various aspects of selecting the right animal for the right home. Volunteers show animals to prospective adopters in the get acquainted areas and answer questions on proper animal care.
Community Education is very important. Education relating to responsible pet ownership, prevention of animal bites, the importance of vaccination and licensing, as well as spay or neuter programs is very important to our community. Volunteers assist Animal Care and Control staff with presentations at schools, service clubs, safety fairs, and various community sponsored events.

As with any organization, clerical assistance is never ending.
