Volunteer and join the Dogs for Good Family

Our volunteers are at the heart of Dogs for Good, enabling us to bring people and dogs together to help make everyday life possible in so many extraordinary ways. 

Volunteering with us is a fantastic way to develop new skills, connect with others, and join a vibrant community—all while making a meaningful difference. We hope you’ll find the time you spend with us incredibly rewarding and lots of fun.

We welcome volunteers of all backgrounds and abilities. From young families to retirees and students, all are invited to get involved. While volunteers must be over 18, young people can participate with the support of an adult.

Whether you have a few hours to spare or specific skills to share, there are many ways to get involved—even if you’re unable to care for a dog. To find out more about our roles and how you can support us, why not come along to one of our Engagement Mornings or Pop-Up Cafés or you can contact us directly – we’d love to hear from you.

 

What our volunteer colleagues say:

Sue and Mike, puppy socialisers:

“When we hear first-hand about how a puppy we have raised transformed someone’s life, it fills us with great happiness. 

We give ourselves a little pat on the back and say to each other ‘we helped to make that difference’.  Not only that, but we had huge fun along the way!

Jackie, fundraiser:

“As a community fundraiser you do all sorts of things.  We do tin collections and quite a lot of fairs, you’re mixing with lots of people, it’s superb.

And seeing someone partnered with a dog is fabulous, it puts everything in perspective.  And you think, yes, that’s why we fundraise. It’s a community that you’re part of.  It’s like a family.
