Loving and caring for up to 50 animals takes a lot of hands, and a lot of hearts.

Thank you so much for your interest in volunteering! Volunteers make everything we do possible!

Please keep in mind the age guidelines for volunteers:

  • To volunteer with dogs, you must be at least 16 years old.
  • To volunteer with cats, you must be at least 14 years old.
  • To volunteer in the gardens, at events, and for other stand-alone volunteer efforts, you must be at least 12 years old.
  • Volunteers not yet 18 years old must have parental permission.

On-site Volunteers:

Please note – our on-site volunteer slots working within the shelter and with our animals are currently filled. We are therefore not accepting volunteer applications for those positions right now, but please check back from time to time as we do welcome new volunteers on-site on an as-needed basis.  

There are many other ways you can help us today:

  • Apply to become a foster HERE
  • Make a contribution HERE to support ARRI’s lifesaving work.
  • Donate items from our WISH LIST.
  • Donate to our Pet Food Pantry, which provides pet food to families in need. Tips on holding your own pet food drive can be found HERE

You can also help us with just a few clicks! Our ability to fulfill our mission is directly related to the number of people we’re able to reach. Please follow us on Facebook and Instagram and share our posts.

Event volunteers:

We are currently looking for volunteers to support our events and fundraising team. If you are interested in joining ARRI as an ARRI Event Ambassador, please email Jeanine at jconrady@animalrescueri.org, and we’ll get back to you with more information about these opportunities.

On behalf of the animals in our care, THANK YOU!
