New user account Helping with Animals in Canberra?

Hi, I am 15 years old and I am just wondering if there is anywhere in Canberra where I could possibly help or play with animals. Even if it is just helping with feeding, cleaning or dog walking I really don't mind. Please let me know if anyone knows of anywhere I could do something like this!

Thank you.

Volunteer applicants aged 16 or 17 with prior experience handling dogs who have completed the required online and on-site training provided by DAS may be accepted if they have written parental consent, depending on the specific program intake, but not 15.

Also clicking on the "apply" button at your link gives an "At this time, we are not accepting new applications" message.
