volunteer application

The Central Texas SPCA (“CTSPCA”) is a privately funded, no-kill shelter dedicated to finding forever families for homeless dogs and cats. Volunteers with a variety of skills and interests are needed to fulfill our mission. Please take the time to complete this Volunteer Application and return the application to us via mail or email. After we review your information, we will contact you about available opportunities and orientation.

SERVICE & GROUP PROJECT REQUESTS: For many years, we have worked with individual students, student groups, churches, and businesses to schedule one-time visits to the shelter for community outreach projects. As we get closer to breaking ground on our new facility, we are temporarily suspending this program. It will return in the future, after we have moved into our new facility. We apologize for the inconvenience.

Note: This application is not to be used for individuals needing to complete Community Service for Travis or Williamson Counties. Please call the shelter for CSR information. 

Important Note about Youth Volunteers: Ages 14-years and under require a parent to volunteer by the child’s side at all times. Children ages 10-12 will be considered for cat caretaking positions only on a case-by-case basis after the parent and child complete orientation together. For safety reasons, children under 12-years of age are not eligible for dog caretaking positions. Each child volunteer must have one trained adult supervising him/her at all times. This 1:1 partnership insures the safety of our child volunteers.
