You can volunteer in SO MANY ways!

Area volunteers donate much of their time and talents and we simply could not exist without them. If you would like to become a volunteer and make a difference in the lives of homeless pets, please contact the shelter at 920-458-2012

Volunteers help at all the various fundraisers we have and also with programs such as the donation bank program, poster distribution, rabies clinic, pet of the week and nursing home pet therapy.

We welcome youth volunteers, but please note that any volunteer under the age of 16 must be accompanied by a parent, guardian, or another volunteer who is OVER the age of 16, because of restrictions on our liability insurance.

Volunteering At The Shelter

Dog exercisers and Cat Cuddlers assist the staff in caring for our cats and dogs. They groom, cuddle, play with the cats and kittens, walk and play with the dogs, do obedience training and, in general ensure that our animals get all of the affection and socialization they need.

General shelter work -We can always use extra help with daily chores
such as laundry and cleaning, or
helping the staff with paperwork and office upkeep.

Outreach volunteers make school presentations and take part in special events. This is a good opportunity for those who want to volunteer on a limited basis.

Fundraisers
The Sheboygan County Humane Society is largely funded by fundraisers that are held throughout the year. Volunteers help work at these events.
