Volunteers are the heart of our organization - we could not to this work without them!
With the dedication of our volunteers, the SPCA of Solano County is able to maintain high quality care of the animals and continue its life saving work. If you love animals and would like to make a difference in their lives, we would love for you to join our team of dedicated volunteers.
The SPCA of Solano county has a variety of volunteer opportunities for volunteers 16 years and older. There are many ways you can help at the SPCA and there is a place for everyone. From helping with the animals to landscaping and special projects we try to fit each individual with a job that will suit their personality.
Your first step toward volunteer service is to attend an orientation class. Volunteers may then attend classes in animal care, or they may begin working in other areas which do not require further training. Class schedules are posted on the website. You are always welcome to stop by the shelter to get more information about our programs and schedules. To indicate your interest in volunteering or to ask specific questions, please e-mail us at volunteer@solanospca.com. When you e-mail it is very helpful if you can tell us something about yourself and why you want to volunteer for the SPCA.
Anyone interested in working with our animals will need to attend a series of related classes. The classes outline our program and insure that the animals have consistency in their training. Volunteers working with our dogs will help by providing socialization and training. Our cat volunteers help to socialize the cats and kittens making them comfortable being handled.
We are also always on the lookout for people that are interested in fostering animals in their home. We have foster opportunities for young kittens and puppies as well as adult animals that may require special care or training.
