03/23/20 UPDATE for Current Shelter Volunteers:
At this time, we continue to welcome our current volunteers and we thank everyone for their efforts during these difficult times. Each person must make their own decisions about their comfort level during this situation and we encourage those with age- or health-related concerns to play it safe. Recommendations for all on-site volunteers are listed on the check-in binder but are repeated here:
– If you are experiencing a fever and a cough, please do not come to the shelter
– Wash your hands frequently with soap and water
– Maintain a 3 – 6 foot distance between people whenever possible
– Wipe down or wash frequently-touched surfaces like doorknobs, sink handles and counters
– Ask for latex gloves if you are concerned about disease transmission
Circumstances are evolving rapidly and we are trying to adapt, just like everyone else. With that in mind, we recommend that all volunteers check this page before heading to the shelter.

Our volunteers are essential to our organization, and we could not perform our mission without them. Volunteers are active in every level of our organization, from animal care and client service to data entry and maintenance. Are you ready for a rewarding experience helping people and animals in your community? Click here to download a volunteer application now!
Before you join us as a volunteer, we request that you first attend a brief but informative orientation at the Ramona Road adoption center. This orientation is generally an hour long, and you’ll learn all about the HSLC and the different roles performed by our volunteers. After that, we’ll work together to find a volunteer position that fits your interests. Check out our “Events” page for upcoming volunteer orientation dates! (Stay tuned! Orientations will be scheduled soon!)
