FAQS:
1. Are volunteer shifts available in all areas of the shelter? At this time, PAWS Pals volunteer shifts are only available at our cat shelter and garage sale. If you are interested in volunteering in the dog house or another area, please get in touch with the Volunteer Coordinator to learn about future opportunities.
2. Is there a schedule to choose from? We know schedules can vary. Our Volunteer Coordinator will work with you to identify the best day and time for your volunteer shift.

For any questions about volunteering, schedules, or interest in other roles, please contact our Volunteer Coordinator. They can help guide you to the best opportunity based on your interests and availability.
4. Can I just show up at North Beach PAWS without filling out the online form to volunteer? No. Please sign up for a PAWS Pals volunteer shift at least 48 hours in advance using the online form. This allows our team to connect with you ahead of time and make sure you’re set up for a great volunteer experience.
5. How is PAWS Pals volunteering different from regular volunteering? PAWS Pals offers flexible, short-term volunteer opportunities. Volunteers can participate in a single shift or choose multiple shifts based on their availability, without a long-term commitment.
