As a volunteer for this organization, I love what they do! They’re so thoughtful towards both clients and volunteers. I'm so glad that PAWS exists to help people together with their beloved companions and volunteering with them has been such a pleasure and fun.

Absolutely amazing organization — all the way from the mission and staff to the clients. I volunteered for PAWS NY when I lived in NYC and can’t say enough about what a wonderful experience it was. This is all paws down my favorite nonprofit.

Although they operate based on their mission statement to help the disabled but if you need immediate help ;for example they do not help. I found myself needing temp assistance for my cats as I just had hip surgery. I was told they cannot provided food/ litter unless you’re in the program. She also said she didn’t have a volunteer in the Riverdale section of the Bronx. The director then told me to go to animal care @ control (East Fordham to get food!); no kidding that location is one of the most unsafest in the city. (I used to rescue so I know.) I would never send anyone there as it’s like a pantry where you stand in line for hours and only get one large bag of dry food. I have attended many of Paws fundraising events —no more as I know what they’re about.

PAWS NY fills an important gap in animal care AND elder care in NYC and they do it quietly, steadfastly and with generosity of heart. I am a big fan and I extoll their virtues to anyone who will listen. Good job, Rachel & Co.

Every time I've told non-New-Yorkers about PAWS, they are so envious that the organization doesn't exist in every city around the world! It's such a great mission (helping older folks with mobility issues take care of their beloved animals) and couldn't be a more seamless volunteer experience. You only commit as much as you're able and it's so easy to be matched with a person/pet combo in your neighborhood. If you're looking to volunteer with pets AND people, PAWS is the answer!

The most amazing organization. I can’t volunteer at a shelter but this is a happy medium to help the elderly with their pets. They definitely do their best in keeping their volunteers engaged and really care about their clients as well. Volunteer and get your fix of kitty or doggy love. You can also do vet transport which is a couple hours for one day. So there’s no heavy commitment. And you’ve helped someone greatly!

This is SUCH a wonderful organization! The cause is really amazing but the people involved equally are to. Being a PAWS volunteer has had such a positive place in my heart and it really is a group that is fully dedicated to its mission.

I volunteer for PAWS NY, have been since last year November and they really care about both the clients and the people who volunteer for them. I want to volunteer for PAWS NY as long as I can because they are so kind and I haven't come in contact with a violent pet yet.

An exceptional organization that keeps New Yorkers with their furry best friends. As a former volunteer, it is a truly rewarding experience for humans and animals alike, creating bonds that last for years to come. I hope if I’m ever in need of assistance, Paws will be around to help me and my furbabies too.
