We have temporarily closed the Volunteer Applications. We will open the application portal by January 1, 2026 for those who can  attend the next PAWS VOLUNTEER ORIENTATION which is on February 7, 2026 – 10am to 1pm.

Due to the large number of applications we receive, we will prioritize applicants who can commit to 8 hours of shelter work per month. Many applicants only attend the orientation but don’t come back to volunteer.

As a show of commitment, we are now asking all applicants for a P1000 deposit which will be returned after rendering at least 8 hours of volunteer work per month for 6 consecutive months. Only applications with a verified deposit will be accepted. Should an applicant fall short of the volunteer requirement, their P1000 deposit will be forfeited and used for medication and treatment of our special-needs shelter animals.
