  1. Contact your local animal shelter or rescue organization. They may not let you volunteer by yourself, but may possibly if you have  a parent or other adult with you.


  2. Most places won't allow anyone under 16 -- sometimes even 18 -- to volunteer with animals.

    Have a look at nonprofits in your area listed here:

    VolunteerMatch, http://www.volunteermatch.org

    Idealist, http://www.idealist.org

    HandsOn Network, http://www.handsonnetwork.org/

    Change.org, http://www.change.org

    CraigsList, http://www.craigslist.com

    Network for Good, http://www.networkforgood.org

    http://www.1-800-volunteer.org/

    ServeNet, http://servenet.org/

    There's also this government sponsored site, http://volunteer.gov/gov/

    which provides volunteer positions through USA federal land agencies like Fish & Wildlife, Forest Service, National Parks, etc.

  3. You may need to wait a few years. Most places will not let a person that young work there due to insurance regulations. In the meantime read all you can.
