Volunteering at the Shelter

Friends of Upland Animal Shelter operates Upland Animal Shelter in partnership with the City of Upland’s Animal Control Officers. 

Volunteers are valued members of our team and help staff perform a variety of tasks at the shelter every day of the year.

As a new volunteer, you will attend an orientation, work one-on-one with a mentor, and attend other training sessions so you can be successful as a volunteer. Once you are trained, you can make your own schedule and volunteer anytime from 6:30 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. daily and at special events.

Our thrift shop supports our shelter operation. At the thrift shop, volunteers are needed to help sort and display merchandise, assist customers, do light cleaning, help with special events, and other tasks. 

On your first day, you will receive an orientation and training. Once you are trained, you can work with our Volunteer Coordinator to set up your volunteer schedule and volunteer anytime from 9:30 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. daily and at special events.
