Programmdetails

Our volunteering program is simple, hands-on, and focused on giving the dogs a better life. Each morning, volunteers help with walking the dogs, feeding them, refreshing their water, and giving them some love and attention.

After the dogs are taken care of, volunteers support the shelter with practical tasks such as building or repairing fences, gardening, clearing paths, basic maintenance, helping with water pumps, and general improvement projects around the property.
The tasks vary day-to-day depending on what the shelter needs most.

It’s a physical, rewarding, and meaningful way to directly support the dogs and help Lara continue building a safe and happy space for them.

• Attendance: Volunteers are expected to show up on the days they commit to so the dogs receive consistent care and support.
• Positive Attitude: Come with an open mind, a willingness to help, and a genuine desire to make a difference.
• Respect for the Work: Every task—big or small—is important for the dogs’ safety and well-being.
• Responsibility: Follow instructions, handle tools safely, and take your tasks seriously.
• Communication: Let Lara know if you need help, have questions, or can’t join a shift you planned to attend.
