Animal Care Projects with New York Cares

Socialize with rescued animals and help them get adopted just by providing human contact, love, and attention. On New York Cares' Animal Care projects, volunteers walk dogs, play with cats, help stock and keep shelters clean, and more at shelters throughout the five boroughs. On Pet Therapy projects, volunteers bring pets to visit residents at rehabilitation and nursing homes to brighten up their days.

After that, you can choose from hundreds of flexibly scheduled volunteer projects every month.
