Volunteering

Would you like to be a volunteer at Pets Haven? As Pets Haven relies heavily on volunteer support to supplement our small staff base, new volunteers are always welcome. Below are some of the main activities we undertake every day – should you wish to assist with any of these please come into the shelter to discuss, or contact Helen our Volunteer Coordinator – volunteers@petshaven.com.au

We need help with:

Walking – Every dog in the shelter needs walking every day, so volunteer walkers are always welcome!

Cuddling cats, kittens and puppies – Socialisation is very important, especially in young animals and varied and positive experiences makes our animals well adjusted and more adoptable!

Cleaning – The second an animal poops, we need to scoop! We particularly need help in the early mornings with cleaning kennels and cat cages.

Feeding – All animals are fed once to twice a day depending on their age, health and other factors.

Handy-person jobs – There are always tasks for capable or qualified handy-persons, including minor repair work, painting, electrical and general maintenance.

You will  be required to fill in a form with your personal details and contacts in case of an emergency.

If there are any other animal-related activities not mentioned above that you wish to become involved in, please contact us to discuss further.
