Events
Our adoption events are fast-paced
and fun! We need an average
of 25-30 volunteers per event.
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
1500 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!

We need help taking care of the dogs
at our office during the week! You’ll
help walk the dogs, clean out crates,
and set them up for their stay.
We need help in our office during the
week! Our needs vary, so the ability to
“go with the flow” is important. Jobs may
include organizing, cleaning, data entry,
filing and marketing support.
We recognize that children under 14 years also want to be philanthropic and that not all parents may 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.

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.
LEARN MORE
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.

Oh deer, watch out! This guy will surely capture your heart! 🦌🩵
This is Buck, a three-year-old Golden Retriever/Shepherd blend. Buck was picked up as a stray, and the staff at Animal Care Services tried to find him a rescue without much luck. On the day he was supposed to be euthanized, a team of fosters finally stepped up to save him. Buck spent time in various foster homes with dogs of all shapes and sizes. He did great with each pack, and eventually found a long-term foster with SNIPSA. Buck currently lives with a mix of two teenage boys and a small, older Terrier. 🐾
Buck loves to lay out in the sun, hang out and watch football with everyone, and just be a part of the group. He seems to be very adaptable and would do great in most environments, given enough exercise. He is house-trained and goes to his kennel on command. Buck has it all: good looks and even better manners. Don’t get stuck in the headlights — Apply to meet him!

It certainly is HIP to SNIP, y’all! 🐶✂️🐱
On Saturday, November 2nd, hundreds of people and animals gathered at Port San Antonio to do one important thing: reduce the homeless animal population here in San Antonio. With the help of our partners, staff, veterinarians, technicians, volunteers, and responsible pet owners, we set a new record for our Big Fix clinics. SNIPSA fixed, microchipped, and vaccinated an impressive 540 animals in need... and it’s all because of YOU! We couldn’t be more grateful for another successful Big Fix. Thank you to HEB and City of San Antonio’s Animal Care Services for partnering with us to make these services possible. 🤍🐾✨
