Volunteer: WCAC - Paparazzi VolunteerGLAMOR SHOTS! Having a good photographer is vital for our website and social media reach. Many potential adopters look at our website prior to coming out to the Center and a picture is often the first chance at marketing our animals for adoption. A great photograph can capture the animal’s personality – making them more desirable. A bad photograph can make the animals look sick, angry, or just plain not-so-charming. The Paparazzi Team takes pictures of our animals (ideally outside for dogs and livestock – if possible – and inside for cats and critters) so people are enticed to come out and adopt. In addition, people who have lost their pet often check online for their missing animal and a quality picture could be all the difference! If you are interested in joining our Volunteer Program, here are the requirements:You must meet the necessary Essential Capabilities to safely volunteer. You must be over the age of 18. Eighteen is the minimum age to volunteer with us, and there are no exceptions to this rule. You must commit to at least six hours per month, for at least six months. We cannot accommodate single-day or short-term volunteerism.

Volunteer: WCAC - Dog Walking VolunteerVolunteers on the Dog Walking Team take eligible dogs on long walks, play ball with them in the play yard, and engage in other physical activity. Exercise is very important, as stress creates energy that must be given an outlet. This position helps dogs feel less stress, which can lead to them being happier, healthier, better mannered, and (ultimately) more adoptable. Dog Walkers are essential to our program and we are always looking for new volunteers to join the team!

Volunteer: WCAC - Cuddling VolunteerCuddlers interact with the animals that are ineligible to leave their kennel. For example, certain dogs may be ineligible to be walked outside due to age, health, medication, or length of time at the shelter. Socialization is especially important for kittens and puppies, shy adults, and those who need help with basic manners. Cuddling gives the animals the chance to stretch their legs and receive love and attention. This position helps excited dogs learn how to be calm around new people (not every interaction leads to a walk outside) and helps anxious cats trust new people, which can prevent scratching and biting habits from forming. If you are interested in joining our Volunteer Program, here are the requirements:You must meet the necessary Essential Capabilities to safely volunteer. You must be over the age of 18. Eighteen is the minimum age to volunteer with us, and there are no exceptions to this rule. You must commit to at least six hours per month, for at least six months.

Volunteer: WCAC - Biography Writing VolunteerThe Biographer is a very important job within our Center. The more information that we can supply to an adopter about our animals’ personalities, the more adopters will be drawn to our Center and adopt. This will help us save more lives! The Biographers interact with the animals themselves, or uses information provided from other volunteers, and writes an animal profile that potential adopters will read on our website, PetFinder, or Facebook. Each animal is an individual and, by sharing and celebrating their unique traits and personal stories, Biographers help adopters identify and connect with them. This role/assignment is also one of the few that can be done from home (provided you've already interacted with the animal or gathered information from other volunteers). If you are interested in joining our Volunteer Program, here are the requirements: You must meet the necessary Essential Capabilities to safely volunteer. You must be over the age of 18. Eighteen is the minimum age to volunteer with us, and there are no exceptions to this rule. You must commit to at least six hours per month, for at least six months.
