Volunteer

A lot of the work can be done from home.

We need more people as the rescue grows. Transports, applications, posts, follow-ups. If you love dogs and have a few hours, there is a job that is not “please take a puppy home tonight” — though fostering is open too.

Roles

Petfinder management

Add and remove dogs on Petfinder. We provide all the info. It is a copy-and-paste task, and we have a step-by-step guide.

Apply for Petfinder management

Google Drive

Help maintain the current-foster Google Drive file so we can track adoptions.

Calls during the workday

Make occasional calls, such as adding a dog to our vet account. A lot of us are at work during business hours and can’t make them.

Fundraising

  • Email and reach out for donations, grants, and other support, if that is a skill you already have.
  • Ask a local business to keep a donation box out. We provide the box and come collect it.
  • Ask a brewery or bar about a yappy hour, with a portion of the proceeds donated and us marketing the business. Bringing adoptable dogs is a plus, and only if the place is dog-friendly.
  • Ask businesses or events for raffle items: gift cards, baskets, sports tickets, concert tickets.

Also useful

Pet photographers. Anyone good at writing cute or quirky posts. If you can help with something that is not on this list, say so on the application.
