VOLUNTEERS
Our organization could not exist without volunteers. As a private, non-profit organization, we rely on the assistance of caring and hard-working volunteers in all of our programs. Working directly with the animals can increase their chances of adoption by providing additional human contact. Volunteers also help us inform the community of the goals and objectives of the Sevier Animal Care Center and promote responsible pet ownership.

FIELD TRIP PROGRAM
How would you like to borrow one of our dogs for a few hours? Our Field Trip Program allows you to do just that. You can come and check out an approved dog just like a library book and return them the same day. This program is perfect for folks who cannot adopt, but still want to have some tail waggin’ time. You may even run across someone on your adventure who would love to adopt your new friend. Never fear- your ‘go bag’ will be stocked with essentials such as water, poopy bags, and our shelter’s business cards. Simply direct those folks to us. Bonus points if you get some fabulous photos that we can use of the doggo enjoying their trip. SELFIES ANYONE?? Some key items to note:

- Parks, dog friendly walking trials, restaurant patios, and Starbucks pup cup runs are only a few of the wonderful possibilities!
- Dogs enjoy quality time, exercise and socialization outside of the shelter. They often come back happy and ready for a nap.
- You’ll have a great time too! There is no commitment beyond simply spending time together and having fun.
- Participants must be at least 18 years old, or accompanied by a parent or guardian.
- Dogs must remain on leash, held by an adult, at all times.
- We ask that you avoid dog parks as they can be overwhelming for many shelter pups.
- It is recommended that the dog be kept separate from personal pets.
- All you have to do is complete a volunteer application and waiver form, which can be done on site. Please bring a valid ID.
- Dogs are available for pick up/drop off from 8-11:30 am and 1-4:30 pm.
You may also fill print and fill out the application below and mail to the SACC or drop off.
