Thanks for your interest in volunteering at The Lost Dogs' Home. We're always keen to hear from people who love animals and have time to help us look after them. 😊

Opportunities come up often for a variety of volunteer roles including dog walking, enrichment, driving, laundry, cat adoptions and gardening.

It would be great to have you complete an application form so that we can get in touch when a suitable position is available.

Our minimum requirements for volunteering include:

•             At least 18 years old

•             Available for at least 4 hours weekly

•             Ideally a minimum 6-month commitment

Please complete the application form and email volunteering@dogshome.com if you have any questions.

All volunteers will receive comprehensive induction, behaviour training, and safety training and will be provided with appropriate PPE. Volunteers are also eligible for support through our Employee Assistance Program and also discounts for their pets at The Lost Dogs' Home Vet Hospital after 6 months of volunteering.

Please note that due to the large volume of volunteer applications the shelter receives, only successful applicants will be contacted. We thank you for your understanding.

Thanks for your support! 🐶😺
