Volunteer
Hernando Reptile and Exotics Rescue needs your help to care for our residents! We are looking for passionate volunteers who can lend a hand on an appointment basis, as our dedicated director juggles a full-time schedule.
Your role would be nothing short of fantastic: cleaning habitats, feeding critters, helping with soaks, and even having playtime with our animals. We're also looking for passionate volunteers to lend their talents in photography, videography, social media, and creating promotional emails. Your skills will play a crucial role in capturing the essence of our animals and creating engaging content that showcases their personalities and stories.
These efforts are vital as they often serve as the first impression for potential adopters, helping us find loving homes for our rescued animals. Join us in making a difference in their lives – every moment spent here is a chance to bring joy and comfort to these incredible animals. With being a 501(c)(3) nonprofit rescue, this is a great opportunity to earn Florida Bright Futures hours! Let’s create unforgettable moments together at Hernando Reptile and Exotics Rescue!
