We are looking for Volunteers to assist with cat cleaning


You are welcome to fill out the application and we will contact you to attend a virtual orientation.


You must be at least 18 years old to volunteer with Second Chance for Animals. All volunteers are asked to pay yearly dues of $15 (payable if you decide to become a volunteer after attending New Volunteer Orientation). New volunteers are also required to purchase a Second Chance for Animals volunteer t-shirt for $10.


Volunteer opportunities with hands on with animals are cat cleaning daily 10AM to 1PM, and dog walking (Tuesday through Saturday) 12:15 to 4PM (however there is a stringent process before you will; be allowed to walk dogs) other activities such as fundraising or marketing are not dependent on the hours of the shelter.
