Volunteer Application

  • Volunteer Application

  • Thank you for choosing CVAS to volunteer your time and attention to all our fuzzy residents!

    Our Volunteer Coordinator primarily uses email to contact all her volunteers - please make sure to check your spam a day or so after submission. It typically takes her around that time frame to process and complete it and reach out to you. If you do not hear anything or receive any emails, feel free to contact the shelter!

    • If you are coming with multiple adults (18 years and older), make sure you first list them in the section required, and that they complete their own volunteer form
    • If you cannot be consistent with your volunteering, or do not communicate with the volunteer coordinator, you will have your approved application removed and no longer be a volunteer with CVAS.

    ATTENTION: Currently our socializing for cats are on hold

  • Times Available

    All of our volunteers are on a schedule to come in.

    • We are looking for volunteers who are dedicated to the cause of making the lives of shelter animals better, and volunteers who are consistent in their schedule to help.
    • Ensure you are able to do this before submitting the volunteer application.
    • Please note, we are closed Sundays and Wednesdays to all volunteering (excluding Kennel Cleaning 7:00AM-11:00AM)

    We have removed Saturday for the time being as we have numerous volunteers for this day. 

    If there are any questions on our volunteer scheduling, please reach out to cvasoffice@cvas-pets.org
