Make a difference and help us save more lives by becoming a Pets In Need volunteer.

Attend a 1-hour General Orientation. You’ll learn about Pets in Need, the roles currently available for volunteers, and alternative ways you can be involved.
Fill out a volunteer application and submit a copy of your driver license. Expect to hear from us within 2 weeks of submitting your application.
Schedule a time to participate in our basic training for new volunteers. You may also sign up for track-specific training, including workshops for Hiking Buddies/Mutt Strut and Playgroups.
After your completion of general training, you will be an official PIN volunteer!

For safety reasons, volunteers must be 18 years old or older. Those under 18 are invited to check out our Enrichment volunteering, Camp PIN Pals, and Teen Shadow programs.
Must commit to volunteer for at least 6 months. Because of the staff resources required to train volunteers, we do not offer short-term volunteer opportunities for individuals. For info about corporate and workplace volunteering opportunities, please visit our corporate volunteer page.
