Volunteer

Volunteers make an amazing difference in helping us run various programmes at Animal Care Trust. Are you interested in getting involved in animal rescues? Or going to schools and speakng with children about animals more your cup of tea? From rescues to humane education, from hands on work of bathing puppies and walking blind dogs at our shleter to bottle feeding kittens, from social media to setting up adoption camps, there is an activity for everyone who wants to get involved. 

What are the requirements for becoming a volunteer?

Age Guidelines for Volunteering:
13-15 years – Must volunteer with a parent
16-17 years – May volunteer independently with parental permission
18 and up – May volunteer independently

Expectations of ACT volunteers:

  • For everyone’s protection, volunteers must use the safe animal handling techniques and must be vaccinated against rabies
  • Dedicated volunteers make up the majority of our workforce and we schedule their hours according to animal care needs. It is important that volunteers show up for their shifts.
  • While people come to ACT because they love animals, ACT volunteers must also be able to work well with other people. ACT isn’t just about animals—it’s about people helping animals.
  • All tasks, from cleaning cages to entering data, have specific procedures. Volunteers must adhere to these procedures unless a staff member directs them otherwise.
  • Once volunteers know their work routines, they are expected to work with minimal supervision. Following through on tasks ensures the animals are receiving the best possible care. Staffs are always available to answer questions
