How to Get Started

How You Can Help

Volunteers can help HSNT in a multitude of ways; be it walking dogs, playing with cats, assisting in adoptions, lending an extra hand during a large cruelty case, or representing HSNT at events.  No matter your interests, we’re sure there is a volunteer job suited just for you!

If you are interested in working with horses and other livestock, we have volunteer positions available! This is a unique job where you get to be outside in the mud and muck, spending time with all these amazing animals. You do not need to have experience, as we will learn what you are good at and safely teach you how to help with the horses or livestock.

Why Volunteer at HSNT?

The Humane Society of North Texas relies greatly on the generosity of people willing to donate their time and skills.  Their kindness and support enables us to continue our efforts in providing care for the homeless animals of North Texas.  Our work simply would not be possible without the support of our volunteers.


When you donate your time to HSNT, you are helping to provide the extra love and support our animals need to prepare for their forever homes. At the end of the day, you’ll know that your time had an impact on HSNT’s animals, and we’re sure they’ll have an impact on you, too!

HSNT would not be able to serve thousands of animals each year without the help of our dedicated volunteers, and we thank you! We depend greatly on the support of our volunteers to ensure the health and happiness of our shelter pets. If you love animals, HSNT has a volunteer opening just for you!
