Center Valley Animal Rescue

Our Mission

Center Valley Animal Rescue is dedicated to rescuing, rehabilitating, and rehoming domestic and wild animals in need. We believe every creature has inherent value and deserves a safe, caring environment where their basic needs are met with compassion.

A Legacy of Second Chances

Founded in 2002 by Sara Penhallegon, our organization began as a dedicated network of foster families committed to providing a soft landing for animals in crisis. Since purchasing our 32-acre ranch in 2004, we have transformed the land into a vibrant sanctuary that serves as a vital community resource for Jefferson County. Our history is built on a foundation of love and a commitment to ensuring that no animal is left behind.

How We Care

Our work spans from intensive medical care to providing permanent sanctuary for animals who may not be suitable for adoption. We operate a fully equipped 32-acre facility featuring barns, shelters, and a specialized medical center to support our domestic and wildlife residents. Whether we are housing overflow from other shelters or providing rehabilitation for wildlife, our dedicated team of volunteers and staff works tirelessly to give every animal a dignified path forward.

Finding Your Perfect Companion

We are committed to thoughtful, responsible adoptions that create lifelong bonds between pets and their new families. Because we want to ensure the best possible match, we require an approved application before scheduling a meet and greet. We invite you to explore our available animals and see how you can become a part of their success story.

10/2 - In case you haven’t heard, we now have ownership over our big eastern Washington cruelty case! These little goat kids are called Lamanchas, and they have been at CVAR since April. They arrived in the middle of the night, many of them in critical condition. Over the last 6 months we’ve treated them for internal parasites and severe emaciation. One little goat even had to have an eye removed. Now they are just waiting for one more test result before they can be adopted out! We would love to start getting some forever homes lined up for them. They are all bottle babies and so they absolutely love human attention and are the perfect supervisors for any activity! The biggest problem is that they’re all too cute to just pick one or two! Apply to adopt them on our website! https://centervalleyanimalrescue.org/adopt/ #goats #kidgoat #cutefarmanimals #goatlove
