Volunteer Interest & Application


Thank you for your interest in volunteering at the Bryant Animal Shelter!

Please review this information before completing an application:
You must be at least 18 years old to volunteer at Bryant Animal Control and Adoption Center (even for school - mandated Community Service Hours.)
Please answer all questions and submit this form. Your application will be reviewed, and you will be contacted via email with more information after you complete the application.
The volunteer program currently uses Facebook and Facebook Messenger to communicate. You must have a Facebook account and join the shelters Facebook volunteer group to volunteer. Don't know how to set up a Facebook account? Let us know and we can help you!

Court-ordered and School-Mandated Community Service Hours must be arranged in advance with the shelter manager. The Bryant Animal Shelter only allows court-mandated community service hours from the Bryant Department of the Saline County Court, and can only accomidate school-mandated community service hours for students who reside within the City of Bryant (regardless of what school they attend) due to overwhelming demand. Email the Shelter Manager at rbennett@bryantar.gov for more information and to request court-mandated community service hours.

Shelter staff cannot sign any court documents verifying hours unless arrangements are made in advance. We apologize for the inconvenience.


At this time, we are not accepting volunteers under the age of 18.
