CARA Volunteers

CARA Volunteers CARA volunteer page provides information to the folks that volunteer with CARA. We currently have about 150 dogs and cats. We are not supported by any taxes.

CARA is a no-kill animal shelter that promotes the rescue, care, and placement of CARA dogs and cats. We rely on our volunteers to help us care for our dogs and cats. And we are so grateful that our volunteers do help us so much! From cleaning kennels, picking up branches in the Bark Park, bathing puppies so they can go to adoption events, socializing with our senior dogs, helping at adoption even

ts...........the list goes on. Our volunteers are essential to CARA and to our dogs and cars. CARA wouldn't be CARA and couldn't be CARA - without volunteers!
