When you visit Homeward Pet, the first welcoming face you’ll see is one of our volunteer Receptionists (like Jan, pictured).  Through our lobby doors, there are another nearly 400 friendly, animal-loving volunteers who come in every week to help us care for our dogs and cats, do laundry, perform administrative tasks, walk dogs, host off-site events, scoop litter boxes, assist in the clinic, and more.  Lots more.

We’re closing in on our 27,000^th adoption, and our volunteers are vitally important to every single adoption we do, every cat and dog we place into a new home, and every adopter who finds a new four-legged family member at Homeward Pet.

We are constantly surprised, honored and humbled by the overwhelming support we have received from our dedicated volunteers.   We can’t say it enough, but we want to make sure we acknowledge our amazing volunteers during National Volunteer Appreciation Week:  THANK YOU!
