Urgent Help Needed at A Better Life Animal Sanctuary

Our sanctuary is in urgent need of volunteers to join us on-site including:-

* Live-in Volunteers & Weekend Volunteers

* Regular Single-Day Volunteers & Volunteer Inductions

* Busy Bee Volunteers (dates announced soon)

Currently we are facing a critical shortage of regular, weekly, and monthly helpers, causing us to fall behind on essential chores and tasks. We're also on the lookout for dedicated individuals willing to volunteer or live on-site, with accommodation to be provided. We will be organizing friendly volunteer inductions and busy bees for those that are not too familiar with the work that goes on at the sanctuary, so please enquire within.

If you or someone you know has a passion for caring for animals, and can commit to helping out around 140 animals at A Better Life Animal sanctuary a registered charity in Western Australia, please reach out to us. The sanctuary homes pigs and sheep, alpacas, goats, lambs, chickens, ducks, dogs, cats, rabbits to horses and cows, plus everything in between Your dedication can make a significant impact on the lives of these beautiful creatures.

If residing on-site isn't feasible due to work or family commitments, we also welcome regular volunteers, even if it's just for a weekend every month. Every contribution makes a significant impact, and we may be able to provide accommodation as well in the 3 bedroom colonial-style homestead.. Basic free food will be provided. There is Starlink internet connection for anyone who works or studies remotely and the house is air conditioned and maximum work is 5hrs per day.

Basic tasks include feeding and medicating animals, cleaning water troughs and paddock / sanctuary maintenance Additional projects include helping with constructing and repairing shelters, implementing animal enrichment projects and establishing and maintaining pasture on the 200-acre property.

The experience should be an uplifting one, helping animals in need and if you wish we can provide references for future employment/sitting. We also would love to get back to adopting special need animals and re-homing, and badly need your help as we currently are past our capabilities.If you’d like to get involved with volunteering at the sanctuary please click here to send us a message.
