For adult groups (16 years old or older) we will schedule a tour and then split your volunteering time between light service (cleaning, laundry, special projects). We will end your visit by spending some time with an adoptable animal and answer any questions you may have about our organization.
For youth groups (7 years old to 15 years old) our opportunities vary. Please email the Office Manager for further information. We are not able to accommodate youth groups 6 years old or younger.
Our groups are not able to walk dogs, or work one on one with cats (as this requires further training), but we do like to end group visits with a little playtime with one of our adoptable dogs when possible!
