Volunteer

Volunteering isn’t for everyone and it isn’t always easy, BUT it is rewarding. We are a special breed, and if you think you have what it takes, run, don’t walk, complete an application and let’s get going!

Volunteers are the backbone of Thundering Paws. Every single one is an asset for which we are truly grateful.

When most people think of volunteering with Thundering Paws, they tend to think of our sanctuary and cleaning!

We do have open volunteer shifts at the sanctuary seven days a week. If you have availability for either the morning shift, 9:00 – 12:00, or the afternoon shift, 4:00 – 6:00 please fill out a volunteer application at https://www.thunderingpaws.org/volunteer-application/ or click below:

Volunteer Application

Requirements for volunteering at the sanctuary:

  • Teens ages 16 and up may volunteer without a parent or guardian, but we require written consent.
  • Adults of any age may volunteer!
  • We do require that anyone who wants to volunteer at the sanctuary needs to commit to a minimum of one shift per week.
  • If you can’t make your shift, please let us know ASAP. You are part of a team and we need to find coverage. You are important.

However, we have many other amazing volunteering opportunities to offer:

  • Socialization at the sanctuary
  • Outside (yard) work at the sanctuary
  • TNVRM -Trap/Neuter/Vaccinate/Return/Manage
  • Driving foster cats to and from vetting appointments
  • Driving TNVRM cats to and from vetting appointments
  • Handyperson at the sanctuary 
  • Social Media
  • Data entry
  • Socialization at our adoption centers
  • Fostering 
  • Fundraising

And maybe you have another way of volunteering that we haven’t thought of or mentioned!

Please feel free to drop us a line at volunteers@thunderingpaws.org. We’d love to hear your ideas!

Thank you for your interest.
