Sol Dog Lodge Volunteer & Foster Opportunities

At Sol Dog Lodge, volunteers are at the heart of what we do. Whether you’re helping with administrative tasks, greeting clients, assisting with kennel work, training sessions, or fostering a dog in need, your time and care help us build a better community for dogs and the people who love them.

We're Updating Our Volunteer Process!

We’re excited to announce that a new volunteer portal will be launching soon to make it easier for you to get involved with Sol Dog Lodge. While we finalize this upgrade, we’ve temporarily removed our online volunteer application forms.

Interested in volunteering with us now? We’d still love to hear from you! Please reach out directly to: Wesley Perry, Volunteer Coordinator
📧 [email protected]

We’ll get back to you with next steps and keep you in the loop about our updated application process.

Foster a Dog

Fostering is one of the most meaningful ways you can support Sol Dog Lodge.

As a foster, you’ll provide a loving temporary home for a dog until a forever placement is found. We provide food, supplies, and medical care. You provide the space, patience, and love that helps a dog adjust, recover, and thrive.

Interested in fostering? Reach out to Wesley Perry at [email protected] for more information.
