Humane Society of Port Jervis/Deerpark Inc.
Our Mission
At the Humane Society of Port Jervis/Deerpark, we are passionate about ensuring the protection and welfare of all animals in need. Our mission is to foster an environment of respect and compassion while nurturing the vital bond between people and their animal companions.
Our History
Our journey began in 1959 when our founder, Robert Kleinstuber, established this shelter as a heartfelt memorial to his beloved dog, Jeff. That enduring spirit of care continues to drive everything we do as we serve the Port Jervis, Deerpark, and the broader Tri-State area.
Our Care Model
We believe in providing more than just food and shelter; our animals receive comprehensive medical treatment, behavior training, enrichment, and plenty of individual attention. Our dedicated team works tirelessly to support each animal’s recovery, often going above and beyond to ensure they are comfortable and ready for their next chapter.
The Perfect Match
We strive to match our animals with adopters based on a wide range of criteria to ensure it is a wonderful fit for both the family and the pet. By carefully observing health and personality, we help our animals find a second chance at a first-rate life. We take the time to get to know our animals so that your new family member is the right partner for your lifestyle.
