In this episode of Stephanie’s Shelter Stories, we’re diving into Volunteering 101 — all the ways you can make a real difference for animals in Hampton Roads. Virginia Beach Animal Services explains their flexible Shelter Buddy program, perfect for volunteers on the go. Chesapeake Humane Society highlights some truly unique opportunities, including maintaining a garden for their small pets. The Virginia Beach SPCA shares how volunteers of all ages — even kids — can get involved both inside and outside the shelter. And we close with a dedicated dog walker from Norfolk Animal Care Center, who talks about why she started volunteering and how deeply rewarding it has become.
If you’re looking for a meaningful way to start the new year, make volunteering your 2026 resolution!
