Volunteer for the ECSPCA

Minimum age is 18, unless accompanied by an adult. You can walk dogs, cat TLC, help with laundry. Away from the shelter you can volunteer with festivals and events. We also do humane education at schools to teach children about proper animal care.

Pet Care Tip: Disaster Planning

Foul weather, fire and other emergencies strike without warning. Have a pet carrier for your companion animals and an emergency pack of food and water available in case you face disaster.
