Rescue Village
Our Mission
Rescue Village is dedicated to providing humane services for animals and compassion for their people. We believe in a humane world where all animals are cared for and safe.
Our Commitment to the Community
As a private 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization, we provide a safe haven for over 3,000 homeless, abused, and neglected animals each year. We rely entirely on the generosity of our community to deliver expert veterinary care and daily enrichment for every animal that comes through our doors.
How We Care
We are a limited admission, unlimited stay humane society that does not euthanize for space or time constraints. Our dedicated staff and hundreds of volunteers work tirelessly to maintain a clean, safe environment, ensuring that every animal receives the dignity and respect they deserve while waiting for their perfect match.
Your Partner in Adoption
We proactively work to remove barriers to adoption because we believe in creating lifelong, joyful connections between pets and people. Our team of shelter specialists provides personalized counseling to help you find an animal whose personality and needs are the right fit for your home and lifestyle.
