Group guidelines:

  • For the most meaningful volunteer experience, groups are limited to 15 people.
  • We ask for a donation fee of $250 to help us continue to care for our shelter pets until they find loving homes. You can make this donation for your group opportunity here.
  • All projects last two hours. Your group can choose a morning or afternoon time slot, Wednesday through Saturday, based on availability.
  • Every member of your group must be over 18 if you are engaging in projects on-site. Tours are open to people of all ages.
  • Don't forget to wear close-toed shoes and clothes that are okay to get dirty.
  • Most, if not all, volunteer work is done outside and will need to be rescheduled in the event of inclement weather.
  • Carpooling for larger groups is encouraged as parking is limited.
  • All volunteer work will be done at our PAWS Atlanta location: 5287 Covington Highway, Decatur, Georgia 30035
