Start Over Rover Inc.

A Fresh Start for Every Animal

Start Over Rover is a volunteer-powered, no-kill rescue dedicated to providing sanctuary, medical care, and rehabilitation for cats and dogs in Hastings, Nebraska. We believe in ruff beginnings and purrfect endings, ensuring every animal gets the time and support they need for their next chapter.

Building a Community of Care

Our story began in 2011, rooted in a local commitment to give animals in South Central Nebraska a safer path forward. With the dedicated help of community supporters and volunteers, we grew from our original opening into a larger facility designed to provide a secure, comfortable space for our animals to rest and recover.

Our Commitment to Compassion

As a 501(c)(3) nonprofit, we manage a shelter that prioritizes each animal's physical and behavioral well-being. Our approach includes consistent daily care, necessary veterinary treatment, and patient rehabilitation, all delivered without rushing an animal's individual timeline. We remain accountable to our high standards of care, ensuring every resident receives the attention they deserve while waiting for their forever home.

Finding Your Perfect Match

Adoption is about creating lasting, stable partnerships between people and pets. We utilize a thoughtful matching process designed to help you find a companion that is the right fit for your household and lifestyle. Because we prioritize these successful, lifelong connections, our team provides personalized support to guide you through every step of the process.
