Volunteer
As a nonprofit animal rescue, we rely heavily on the assistance of caring and hardworking volunteers for all of our programs. Volunteers can work directly with the animals to increase their chances for adoption by providing much needed human contact and socialization, work behind the scenes feeding and caring for the 200 plus homeless pets that call H.A.L.O. their temporary home, or help educate the community on our mission and promote responsible pet ownership. The future of no-kill rescue lies largely with YOU!

H.A.L.O. Main Shelter
At H.A.L.O., the comfort of our rescues is one of our top priorities. As is ensuring that the staff in charge of their care have all the items they need to care for the animals.
Volunteers assist with a variety of tasks aimed at ensuring the well-being of the animals. These duties can range from cleaning kennels, cages, and play areas to feeding, providing fresh water, and organizing supplies.
You’ll spend quality time interacting with animals, including walking dogs, playing with cats, and socializing with other small animals. This human interaction is essential for keeping them happy, healthy, and adoptable.
The tasks of the Main Shelter Support Team can be endless and will change based on the day’s needs. Get ready to make a real difference in the lives of animals in need!

Transportation
Each day holds a different challenge at H.A.L.O. We can find ourselves with a baby deer that needs to go to Busch Wildlife, or transporting a rescue to a specialist in Orlando for orthopedic surgery, or picking up a raw diet for a kitty with severe allergies. Whatever the day holds, our transport volunteers make it happen. We couldn’t do it without you!
