K9 Dog Rescue

Volunteer at K9 Rescue Group

K9 Rescue Group rely heavily on our incredibly valuable volunteers to ensure our four-legged friends are given the TLC they deserve, as well as our office effectively managed.

Volunteers first undergo a standard induction program, which includes a three hour information and training session. This induction is vitally important, because it increases the chances of each dog in our care being adopted, as well as maximises the effective operation of our office and kennels.

The task of helping animals is not always an easy one, but it is an incredibly rewarding experience. As a volunteer you will be working towards giving our four-legged friends a better life and a new home. You might even make some friends along the way and gain valuable experience in the animal care industry.

There are a number ways you can help: Kennel Hand; Office Administrator; and at Fundraising Events.

If you can spare a few hours a week, you have the ability to make a huge difference to K9 Rescue and the dogs in our care. We require that you be over 16 for the Kennels and 18 for the Office and be prepared to offer a regular commitment, even if it’s just a couple of hours per week or fortnight.

To get started, you will need to e-mail our Volunteer Coordinator with your expression of interest ( volunteer.coordinator@k9dogrescue.org.au ). Following this, you will receive a response within one week advising the outcome of your application and notifying you of our next induction date. Please note that there is a $30 application fee, payable upon acceptance to an induction. This fee includes an admin component and the cost of your uniform.

Many thanks for thinking of K9 Rescue Group to volunteer, we would not be what we are without our volunteers!
