Volunteer for Rocket Dog Rescue
As an all-volunteer organization, your involvement is the key to our ongoing success. You can help fulfill Rocket Dog Rescue’s mission of a truly no-kill community for homeless and abandoned dogs in the Bay Area.
We have a number of different volunteer opportunities ranging from fully remote roles to in-person opportunities at our facility in Oakland.
Check out our full list of volunteer opportunities here!
Please note: Volunteers at our sanctuary in Oakland must be at least 16 years old. Volunteers under the age of 18 must have written permission from a parent or guardian. Volunteers under the age of 16 are always welcome to help out at our adoption events!
