Volunteers are the backbone of our organization, and we rely on our extensive and committed network of volunteers to carry out our important work. If you love working with people and pets, then PAWS NY might be the right organization for you!  We have a wide range of available opportunities available, including:

• Housecall Program: provide care for a client’s pet in their home, such as dog walking or helping with the litter box
• Pet Pantry: collect or distribute pet food and supplies for clients in need, or become a Pet Pantry Sponsor
• Events and Outreach: assist at events and help to raise awareness for our mission
• Professional expertise: offer your unique professional skills to help grow our organization

All volunteers must attend an orientation session before being matched with a client.

Register for an Upcoming Volunteer Orientation Session in the sidebar.

*Please note: volunteers under 18 years of age must have an adult accompany them in order to work directly with a client.

If you’re interested in volunteering but can’t attend the available orientation sessions, please contact us at info@pawsny.org and we’ll make sure to notify you as soon as we schedule our next session.
