OUR MISSION

We are an all-volunteer, foster-based rescue that believes ALL dogs deserve a chance. Our main focus is rescuing and rehabilitating small dogs and puppies, most of which have been neglected, handicapped, or abused. Once secured, they are all placed into foster homes where they are vetted, groomed, evaluated, and re-homed.

To date, we have rescued thousands of our furry friends and placed them into safe, loving forever homes. 

We were founded with the following goals:

PET RESQ FOUNDING GOALS

  • To provide pet rescue services. 

    Our main focus is rescuing and rehabilitating small dogs and puppies, most of which have been neglected, handicapped, or abused.

  • Raise Awareness

    To stimulate interest and concern in the prevention of animal abuse and neglect.

  • To rescue

    rehabilitate and re-home pets from many situations.

  • To rescue without prejudice

    meaning the health, age, or zip code of an animal does not determine whether they deserve to be saved. When we can, we always do.

  • To save lives

    To save animals from being destroyed and work in cooperation with private and governmental agencies to promote the proper care and treatment of animals.

  • To keep pets with their family

    To aid, assist, cooperate, and co-sponsor in situations when needed to keep an animal with its family.

  • Provide disaster relief

    To be heavily involved in all aspects of disaster relief for victims of all species. 

Sometimes it costs thousands of dollars to achieve these goals but we believe all life matters and they are WORTH IT!

We Love our Volunteers!

We operate strictly on donations with dedicated volunteers and loving foster families. We adopt in our four-state area (most of NY, NJ, PA, CT) no more than 1.5  hours from our location. 

​At this time we do not have a shelter. We rely on our network of fosters so meet-and-greets are by appointment only.

Looking Forward

We're working towards our goal of raising enough funds to purchase a property in Northern Bergen County where we can create a cage-less shelter. The most difficult decision for us is to have to turn down an animal in need for lack of space.

Proud to be Your Rescue

Most recently, we were awarded Best of 2020 Tenafly. We have been a recipient of Rachel Ray's Murt Maddness Grant and we participate in Broadway Barks.
