Volunteers help us tremendously by taking dogs out for their first walks of the day, exercising and socializing with them. Typically, this is rain or shine unless it’s really bad weather!
-Make sure to wear close-toed shoes and long pants. It’s recommended to wear clothes that you don’t mind getting a little dirty. Old shoes or boots are great!
-Bring a signed waiver with you (we will email you a waiver )
-Finding us: Type in 3300 Falls Road to your GPS. We are located between Roosevelt Park, and the i-83 south on-ramp. When you arrive, park in the parking lot and walk down to the building labeled “Adoptions”. We will be there waiting for you!
-Feel free to bring any snacks or drinks that day. We will provide all dog walking supplies.
-Expect some excitable dogs. The morning walk is their first walk of the day. It's their time to get out, play, stretch their legs, use the bathroom, and then eat their breakfast when they come back in! They are excited to meet you and have all the fun!
-We will reach out to your group 1 week prior to your scheduled volunteer date to get a headcount for volunteers for the day. Please note: If you have a dog walking project scheduled, we must have 8-10 volunteers. If your team has less than this, we will need to reschedule for a different date. If you have any questions in the meantime, feel free to email me us at volunteer@mdspca.org. We look forward to working with your team!
