 Who We Are 

We are a no-kill, non-profit shelter located in New Kensington, PA. Our shelter is always full of animals, many which are strays. Our shelter is a constant stream of activity. New animals are examined for possible problems, medical charts are checked and medication is administered, when needed. Cat cages and dog kennels are cleaned daily. From the time the shelter opens until it closes, there's a constant flurry of cleaning, feeding, exercising, cuddling, caring. Fresh food, water, litter boxes, and blankets are placed in each cage daily.

Since we depend on volunteers, our office hours are limited to:

Tuesday and Thursday 6:00 p.m. to 8:00 p.m.

Saturday 1:00 p.m. to 4:00 p.m.

Sunday 1:00 p.m. to 3:00 p.m.

Other times by appointment.

Volunteers Needed!

Our shelter is always in need of dedicated and caring animal lovers who are willing to sacrifice their time to help care for our many dogs and cats that reside at the shelter. Volunteers are needed to help walk and bathe dogs, socialize cats, aid in animal transportation to vet appointments and shelter events, and more! If you have the time to help an animal in need, please contact the shelter at 724-339-7388 for volunteer information. Working with our animals is truly a rewarding experience!
