Volunteers
Make a Difference—One Hoofprint at a Time
At DreamCatcher's Horse Rescue, our volunteers are the heart of everything we do. Whether it’s feeding and grooming our horses, guiding trail rides, lending a hand at kids' camps, or bringing energy to our events and fundraisers, every effort helps create a safe, healing space for both horses and humans. When you volunteer with us, you become part of a compassionate community dedicated to second chances and lasting impact. Join us—and discover just how much your time, care, and passion can change lives.

Commitment of a Volunteer
Your Commitment Makes All the Difference
Consistency is key at DreamCatcher’s—especially when it comes to caring for our horses. Volunteers who help with feeding and cleaning play a vital role in maintaining the routine our animals depend on. With many horses coming from backgrounds of food insecurity, a steady and predictable feeding schedule isn’t just helpful—it’s healing. We offer feeding and cleaning shifts seven days a week at 7:00 AM and 4:00 PM, and volunteers are asked to commit to a regular schedule to help support our animals’ sense of safety and trust.
For those who need more flexibility, we deeply value your time and talents at our events and fundraisers, or helping with special projects around the rescue, because every helping hand makes a lasting impact.
