Volunteering

Make a difference in the lives of animals

MHRHS volunteers are crucial to the success of our mission. We rely on hundreds of active volunteers every year to help us with animal care, humane education, clerical work, fundraising and much more.

Although helping with the care of homeless, neglected and abused animals is a great responsibility, we want our volunteers to have fun, make new friends and feel they are making a difference in their community. If you love animals and are concerned about the issues of homeless pets, pet overpopulation, and animal abuse and neglect, please consider the many volunteer opportunities to help the animals at MHRHS.

Small group orientations are held periodically. Contact the to be included in an upcoming session.

Before you schedule your orientation appointment, please review the list of Volunteer Positions which also outlines the minimum age and training requirements.

Once you've decided you are qualified to volunteer, and you are prepared to make a regular commitment, please contact the to schedule your orientation.

If you have a particular talent, skill or experience to offer as a volunteer but do not see the position listed, please contact our to express your interest in helping.

We look forward to hearing from you!
