We host numerous fundraising and adopts events throughout the year. We can always use extra hands at out events to help collection donations, sell YAQUI merchandise, run our raffles, show off adoptable pets, and take pictures/videos.
Consider hosting a donation drive, organize a raffle, hold a 5k run/walk...the options are endless. Contact us so we can help you get the resources you need to create an amazing event.
We place animals in loving homes across the U.S. and parts of Canada—but getting them there takes a village. Before transport, our pets must visit a veterinarian to complete final health certificates and travel documents. We also rely on dedicated volunteers to help drive animals to designated meet-up cities, where they continue their journey to their forever homes.
Come help provide enrichment to our cats and dogs and ensure they get the exercise and TLC they need every day.
Almost every month, we host a low-cost Spay, Neuter, Vaccination, and Microchip clinic. Volunteers play a vital role in the success of our spay and neuter clinics by supporting both animals and their owners throughout the process. Responsibilities include assisting with check-in and client support, helping with animal intake and safe handling, and keeping the clinic running smoothly through general flow support. Volunteers may also assist veterinary staff with vaccines and microchips, monitor animals during recovery, and help guide pet owners through discharge instructions and post-surgery care.
We need help providing medical care to our animals. Rehabilitation volunteers help by administering vaccines, coordinating medications, and communicating with veterinarians. They may also assist with taking our pets to vet appointments or helping.
