Volunteer
The City of Chula Vista has a long history of volunteerism, from our founding community members to the over 1,000 volunteers today who give of their time and talents. Without our volunteers, Chula Vista would not be the family-friendly community that we are. Volunteer work can be a challenging and rewarding experience and provides opportunities to meet many other dedicated people who serve the citizens of Chula Vista. We are proud of our volunteers and the valuable services they provide.
Individuals who are at least 15.5 years old and are not required to satisfy court-ordered volunteer service are invited to apply.
Volunteering at the Animal Care Facility:
Volunteers help keep animals healthy, happy and adoptable! They truly make a difference and are always welcome!
Volunteer assignments may include the care and feeding of animals, exercising animals, assisting the public with adoptions, clerical work and providing general maintenance and upkeep of the Animal Care Facility.
*Due to high influx of youth applications, there is a wait list*
