Volunteer Opportunities


Chihuahua & Small Dog Rescue, Inc. is an all-volunteer organization. There are no paid positions and we rely on our dedicated volunteers to make all the programs work – and to save lives. Below is a list of some of the opportunities that are available at Chihuahua & Small Dog Rescue, Inc. (CSDR).

  • Foster Parent: Bring homeless dogs into your home and care for them until we can find our furry friend his/her forever home. You are responsible for the usual duties – feeding, grooming, and exercise, as well as for bringing the foster dog to vet appointments and to our adoption events and participating in the adoption screening process. Chihuahua & Small Dog Rescue, Inc. pays for all of the dog’s medical costs and can provide any necessary supplies.
     

  • Foster Assistant: Help foster parents transport dogs to and from vet appoints and help with getting the foster dogs to our Meet & Greets. Most of our foster parents are very busy with full-time work schedules and family obligations, so they welcome this type of help.
     

  • Meet & Greet Volunteer: Help to make sure that our Meet & Greet adoption events run smoothly. Duties include handling dogs, walking the dogs, giving out information about CSDR and answering questions that the public may have. Helping with set up and take down of our booth and materials.
     

  • Return Phone Calls: Choose a day of the week, and we’ll e-mail you a list of phone calls to return or make calls.
     

  • Home Visit Volunteer: Each adopter, foster parent and Foster Assistant must have a home visit by one of our volunteers. This position is an important job as you will be going to an individual’s home to see if they have a safe and loving home for our furry friends.
     

  • Committee Members - Join one of our committees: Fundraising, Grant Writing, Marketing, Public Relations, Volunteer, Events, or Research Committee and help shape our programs and services! Various tasks are assigned through each committee.
