NCCR Volunteer Opportunities

rely heavily on volunteers to carry out the day to day operations. There are numerous ways you can get involved. We get thousands of adoption applications every year and we are always in need of people to help process those applications.

In addition to the adoption applications we host various adoption events and fundraisers throughout the year. As you can see we have many areas of need if you wish to volunteer your time. We will provide any necessary training.​

PLEASE NOTE: Our insurance requires that all volunteers must be 18 years or older.

Our experience with the NCCR has been AMAZING!!

We saw a puppy while we were at a soccer game and asked the owner where he was from. He told us NCCR and we had never heard of them before. I looked them up online and when I got home and filled out the application. We were contacted by one of the volunteers who checked our references, called our vet, and did a home visit – all in about a week!

We were approved and started our search that night. We saw Barbara (now Higgins) online and sent a message that we were approved and interested in meeting her and to our surprise, we got a call the next morning! She needed to wait to meet us for at least 10 days as she was just brought in on the last transport, but when she got to our home, she melted our hearts!!

She is by far the BEST dog we have ever met. Her tail never stops wagging!! She loves our children so much and we say constantly that we cannot believe she is ours. NCCR made the process so easy and seamless – I would recommend them to EVERYONE!
