The Milton Animal League is always in need of extra helping hands. There is no need to commit to a particular schedule - even if you can drop in and walk a dog or pet a cat on occasion, the Milton Animal League (and the animals) will greatly appreciate it.

Many of the Milton Animal League volunteer questions come from students. Here's the scoop - in order to joins the ranks of the dedicated volunteers: 

  • You must be 14 years or older to come in without a parent or adult guardian. If you're under 14, you're always welcome with your parent or guardian along. 
  • If you are a minor, you'll need to get your parent or guardian to sign a  permission form
  • We have a number of students who fulfill their community service requirement at the shelter. You'll need to fill out a form at the shelter to record your hours, and get it signed by a supervisor in order to get credit from your school.

 You'll be asked to help with any number of shelter tasks, such as: 

  • cleaning cat cages
  • walking dogs
  • restocking supplies
  • general cleaning, such as mopping floors and doing laundry  
  • answering phones
  • helping out at various events

 Some of the events we hold are: 

  • annual rabies clinic
  • annual holiday parties
  • flea markets, and other fundraisers. 

You don't need to live in Milton to volunteer. Call Linda Kippenberger at 617-698-0455 and  leave a  message, or come by anytime that the shelter is open.
