Volunteers are the
Heartbeat of SNIPSA

Why Volunteer?

Our SNIPSA volunteers dedicate their time giving to the animals in the community because they believe in what we do. Each year, we rescue over 1000 animals from dire situations off the streets and from local animal shelters. We spay/neuter, vaccinate, and microchip
more than 2600 animals residing in low income areas of town that would otherwise continue to reproduce and contribute to San Antonio’s huge stray population. We do all of this because of YOU, our volunteers, and we can always use more hands on deck!

In-Office Help

We always need help in our office during the week. Our needs vary, so the ability to “go with the flow” is important. Tasks include bathing and walking rescues, cleaning crates and tools, data entry, marketing support and more.

Under 14 Years Old

We recognize that children under 14 years want to be philanthropic and that not all parents have the ability to volunteer with their children. As a result, we’ve created a few activities that kids can do at home or school to contribute to SNIPSA and earn volunteer hours!

Ages 14 - 15

We always want to be supportive of kids with a giving heart. We have a few volunteer opportunities for children, but ask that both the child and parent/legal guardian complete a volunteer profile. The parent or guardian must accompany the child at all times.

Group Volunteer Program

Our group volunteering opportunities allow for corporate or organizational groups to assist with events for SNIPSA. Volunteer groups are typically groups of 10-15 people that volunteer for 2-hour shifts or longer. Volunteer groups operate on a first come, first serve basis, and fill up quickly.

Two of our biggest dogs, Calvin and Hobbes, found a home with the Randles family last week! 🫶

Of course, we always love seeing our animals get adopted — but it’s extra special when they bond in a foster home and then get to stay together for life.

A big thanks to these incredible folks for giving our boys a chance! ❤️✨

Check out this new girl’s amazing smile! 😬💗

It doesn’t compare to Tami’s, but still. What should her name be?

Smile Fosters! You’ve got a Candy Gram. 🍬💘

Well, maybe not candy, but these two sweethearts need a little EXTRA love this Valentine’s Day! 💞

Valentine and Venus urgently need fosters; we’d love to see them snuggled up by this afternoon. Pick up by 2 PM today— our office is closing early for a much-needed company outing! 🤠

Valentine and Venus are truly special girls! Easy-going, crate-trained, potty-trained; you really couldn’t ask for a more perfect pup!

If you can open your heart (and home) to one of these lovebugs, let us know ASAP!

Please help us give them the Valentine’s Day they deserve! 🐶💌

Did one of these little angels strike you with their arrow? 👼💘 Good, because they urgently need a place to stay!

We are in desperate need of fosters before 2 p.m. on Friday. The SNIPSA staff will be out of office on a field trip and we need all of our animals GONE. 👋

You can choose to indulge in some puppy kisses or take a chance on Ruby—a calm girl with the sweetest smushy face. Ruby does well in her kennel and she is friendly towards other dogs.

Enjoy some love with no strings attached this Valentine’s Day. 🤭💋 To open your heart to a foster, please contact (210) 372-5995!
