Lend a Hand.
Lift a Heart.

Volunteers are the heartbeat of our rescue. You make the difference between overwhelmed and supported, between stressed dogs and thriving ones.

Whether you're walking dogs, pitching in at events, or helping behind the scenes, you’re giving rescue dogs what they need most: time, love, and human connection. Let us know how you'd like to help below.

🧡 Volunteering Feels Good—Literally

Helping dogs is good for the soul, but it’s also great for your health. Studies show that volunteering can:

  • Lower stress and boost your mood
  • Help you feel more connected and purposeful
  • Even support heart health and lower blood pressure

So when you walk a dog, clean a kennel, or help out at an event—you’re not just changing a life. You’re taking care of your own, too.
