A volunteer opportunity with Wet Noses Animal Rescue is perfect for anyone who is passionate about dogs and looking to make a difference in their lives. Interested individuals are welcome to volunteer with our animal rescue organization regardless of their interests, skills, or knowledge. By contributing your time and effort, you will help us achieve our goal of providing a better life to the dogs who need it the most.

At Wet Noses Animal Rescue, we understand that not everyone can commit to regular volunteer hours due to personal or professional obligations. That’s why we offer flexible volunteer options that cater to your schedule. Whether you can only spare a few hours a week or can dedicate an entire day, we welcome all contributions. We also have various volunteer positions available, allowing you to choose a role that aligns with your interests and skills.

Volunteer opportunities

Animal Transport

We always need transport volunteers who are willing to transport animals from our partner shelters in metro Atlanta to the rescue in Blue Ridge, GA. Additionally, there are opportunities to transport to offsite events and foster homes. When a transport opportunity arises, the volunteer group is notified to see who is available to help out.

Join our Fundraising Committee

We are 100% volunteer ran and donation funded, so we fully rely on fundraising to save lives. We spend over $125,000 annually on veterinary bills alone! If you have a few hours to dedicate each month to support our fundraising efforts, please consider joining the Fundraising Committee. This group meets virtually once a month for 1 hour and then spends 3-4 hours outside of those meetings completing tasks for the fundraising plan.

Marketing & Content Development

This is a volunteer role that can support many things - taking photographs of our adoptable dogs, developing graphics, writing content for newsletters, and editing videos. If you have a passion in one, or all of these, we’d love your help in marketing our adoptable dogs and sharing our mission with our community. Time commitment will vary depending on the project.

Webmaster

Maintain our website and keep it updated with the latest information. We use WordPress and can train on how to use the tool. Anticipated time commitment is 2-4 hours/month.

Bio Writing

Do you have a way with words and can help us write compelling bios for our adoptable animals? Bios are critical in helping our rescue dogs find their family match by showcasing their unique characteristics, ideal home, and personality. While we need commitment for you to write bios once a week (~1 hour), there is complete flexibility in the day and time of day you help out.
