Thank you for considering becoming a volunteer with the Sarnia & District Humane Society. In joining our organization, you make an active commitment to applying your skills, interest and time toward helping the animals that need it most.
Not 18? You can still help! We always need volunteers to hold events to help raise funds for the animals in our care.
Just what it sounds like! The dogs in our care need time out of the kennels to get exercise and some much needed socialization and affection. The dogs benefit physically and emotionally, ultimately making them more adoptable. Dog Walkers also play an important role in identifying dog traits, behaviours and personalities to the shelter staff so they can better match the dogs to prospective adoptive families. They are true Heroes for our dogs.
Much like the Dog Walkers, the Cat Groomers provide the shelter cats with much needed love and attention to keep them healthy and to improve their overall well being. These Cat Heroes are true life savers!
PETSMART
PetSmart is one of our most invaluable partners when it comes to finding homes for the many cats and dogs that enter our shelter. Throughout the year, PetSmart plays host to Adoption events at their location.
COLDWELL BANKER SOUTHWEST REALTY
Each year, Coldwell Banker Southwest Realty teams up with us for our biggest Adoption event of the year to help our animals find great homes! Volunteers are an important part of making these events successful, the more the merrier!
The Sarnia & District Humane Society relies heavily on the generosity of its’ community members for support. We receive no financial assistance thru our Provincial government, all monies come thru Municipal pound contracts, donations, and fundraisers to help us care for the over 2500 animals that seek refuge within our shelter.
Over the years we have hosted golf tournaments, galas, pet walks, online auctions, and many others and our volunteers play a leading role in all of them to ensure their success.
Volunteers are an important part of making these events successful, the more the merrier!
Thanks to the great support of the AGCO and Jackpot City, the Sarnia & District Humane Society receives needed revenue thru Bingo’s. Our valuable Bingo volunteers assist throughout the game to ensure it is an enjoyable experience for their patrons.
All shifts are 2 or 4 hours in length. Training is provided on site and SDHS shirts are supplied to you and are a requirement. The Sarnia Humane Society typically volunteers for 6-8 hours per month. Proceeds from these volunteer hours benefit the spay/neuter program.
I understand that the Sarnia & District Humane Society (“SDHS”) is a registered charity organization whose mission is “dedicated to protecting and enhancing the quality of life for all animals and to prevent animal cruelty and suffering.”
To meet our mission goals, we rely heavily on our volunteers to work with us to ensure all animals receive the compassion, comfort, and care they deserve.
