Charlotte Animal Volunteer Opportunities

Volunteering with veterinarians at shelters and animal care facilities is the best way to explore and confirm your dream of becoming a veterinarian.

As a volunteer shadowing in a veterinary hospital, you can see exactly what a veterinarian’s day looks like. By watching hospital procedures, you'll learn medical terms, animal husbandry techniques, education names, basic anatomy and so much more. If you volunteer at a shelter, you contribute to the well-being of animals in distress while gaining valuable skills in essential caregiving tasks — these can include feeding, administering medications and offering socialization and mental stimulation to the animals under your care.

The increased cost of living in Charlotte, North Carolina reportedly correlates with people giving pets to shelters, causing shelters in Charlotte to reach capacity quicker than ever. Fortunately, animal shelter volunteer opportunities and activities are impacting the lives of these animals positively.

If you want to make a difference in an animal’s life, review the information below to find volunteer opportunities at Charlotte animal shelters.
