Volunteers! 

Thank you for your interest in volunteering with Animal Services. As a volunteer you have the ability to change the lives of hundreds of animals. There are a variety of opportunities and to begin, you must attend a County volunteer orientation. We look forward to having you on our team! Our volunteers are invaluable! They help to keep our animals safe, clean, and adoptable.
