Join the Bark Rangers!
Support the long-term stability of the park by becoming a monthly or yearly donor and a Bark Ranger!
Why Become a Bark Ranger?
Besides the benefits you receive as a Bark Ranger (see below), you’re helping the Palmer Doggie Depot stay open and free to the public. Subscriptions allow us to plan future improvements to the park and ensure that it stays open and safe. Without reliable income, we only have to do last minute fundraising efforts or grants to meet our basic needs.

Volunteer Run
The Palmer Doggie Depot is run by a board of 9 volunteers! We do our best to maximize the park’s budget and find ways to continuously improve the park.
We rely on additional volunteers to help out with events, cleanups, and provide in-kind donations or services to supplement our donations or grants (when available).
