Volunteer
This is one of the simplest ways to help out our cause. We believe the best way for our initiatives to be successful is for the community to actively get involved. This is an easy and efficient way of contributing to the great work we do at Rebel Dog Rescue.
Volunteers are the backbone of our organization and there are multiple roles available to volunteers.
​
Adoption Lead - *WE ARE NOT TRAINING ADOPTION LEADS AT THIS TIME* In this role is your job to match dogs in need to their forever home. You will receive applications submitted for the dog you are an adoption lead for, review them, and proceed with the most suitable applicant. You will conduct an adoption interview with them and complete their reference checks. We typically run a transport every other month, and we ask that adoption leads take a minimum of 2-3 dogs per transport. Each adoption takes roughly 2 hours to process start to finish, which means it would be a ~4-6 hour commitment per month (you are welcome to be lead on as many dogs as you would like!). In this role you must be confident speaking on the phone, be somewhat tech savvy and have good organizational skills, and preferably have rescue dog experience. Training is provided to you for this role!
​
Events & Fundraising - RDR is not-for-profit and every penny that is donated or raised for out organization goes right back to dogs in need. We rely on our events and fundraising team to come up with fun and creative ways to fund RDR's initiatives and to support the costs associated with rescuing the dogs.
​
Local Transport - Occasionally we need volunteers to pick-up donations, drive dogs to foster homes off of transport, or take dogs to and from appointments in the Niagara region and GTA.
​
Dog Walker - From time to time we have a dog who is residing in boarding while we seek foster placement or a forever home, it is important that we continue to work with the dog, socialize the dog, and take the dog for outings or day dates! The boarding facility we currently work with is located in St. Catharines.
