Rock Run Animal Rescue (RRAR) is seeking animal care volunteers to help out around the rescue! Our rescue consists of cats, dogs, horses, goats and chickens!
All of these animals require daily care and attention. Feeding, cleaning their pens/pastures, and giving them a little love are all a part of the job. These animals have all been rescued from a variety of past life situations and need your help!

Mission Statement
Rock Run Animal Rescue is a 501(c)(3) non-profit corporation. Our mission is to care for animals in need by providing a supportive environment that encourages physical, emotional, and spiritual healing. In caring for our animals, we utilize holistic healing modalities in conjunction with contemporary veterinary care. While a few of our animals are available for adoption, most will live the rest of their lives with us.
Description
WHERE WE ARE NOW
In September of 2016, we sold our property in Shermans Dale and personally purchased a 20 acre farm in Newville (northwest of Carlisle) with multiple outbuildings and hay fields. There’s an entire building, the "Catty Shack," for the cats and several areas for the chickens, goats, and horses. We built two runs for the dogs. The farm has amazing potential; however, it requires some renovations and restoration of buildings and fencing.
We are now located in a different county and are gradually meeting members of our new community. We are looking for local volunteers and animal loving folks who are able to help in other ways. Currently, we are caring for 7 horses, 8 cats, 4 dogs, 2 goats, and 13 chickens at the new farm. It takes a village to provide for them financially and physically!
This summer, we will have many projects...fencing, painting, renovating the horse stall and goat pen, replacing many barn doors and windows. Also this summer, we will have our own hay made (a huge cost savings)! We have a lot of work ahead of us, yes. But what an exciting time!
