Become a Volunteer for Los Angeles Animal Services
Thank you for your interest in our volunteer team! We are looking for volunteers who want to make a difference in the lives of abandoned animals in our care.
We need friendly, outgoing and personable volunteers to assist the public and work with the staff in our animal shelters and at on-site and off-site adoption events.
Our dogs, cats, rabbits and other animals are in need of care, attention, walking, playing, socialization and engaging with people. You may choose to work with any or all of our animal populations.
Volunteers are also needed to assist with other important roles such as adoptions, greeting customers, photography, videography, playgroups, humane education, public relations and some office tasks.
Volunteer opportunities are available during our business hours. Tuesday to Saturday: 8: 00 am to 5:00 pm. Sunday: 11:00 am to 5:00 pm. Shelters are closed on Mondays and on holidays.
