Pet Care Volunteers
Feed, clean and socialize orphan pets at one of our Petco locations. The continued success of our program, and the comfort of our showcased cats and kittens, depends on the Pet Care Volunteers who tend to them. Pet Care Volunteers must be dependable and possess reliable transportation, as the animals count on them. Days and hours vary, but once agreed upon, must be consistent.

How you help
Pet Assistance Foundation is, and always has been, a volunteer-driven, grass roots organization. We are able to accomplish so much for the animals, and to make every dollar count, because of dedicated animal-lovers like you.
About us
Every year local pounds and humane societies kill 300,000 loving and adoptable pets because there are no homes for them. Since 1955, Pet Assistance Foundation has been referring concerned pet owners to cooperating Southern California veterinarians who offer low cost sterilization. Through our network of volunteers, we are here to assist you in joining countless other caring cat and dog owners in Southern California who already have taken responsibility for the future by altering their pets.
