Do you love dogs? Want to give back to the community by sharing your time? We need you!

Pet Refuge is located on the south side of South Bend and we have daily morning and evening shifts that care for the dogs in our care.

Currently we are in critical need of weekday morning assistance for our dogs.

Monday, Wednesday and Friday are the most critical mornings. Arrival time is around 8 am and you will work with a team caring for our dogs. Cleaning includes kennel care, sweeping and mopping. Food prep, dishwashing and laundry assistance is also needed. Our dogs get outside play yard time and walks twice a day (as weather permits) and they love to spend quality time with our volunteers.

Please consider helping out and being the difference for dogs in needs.
