Mission Statement

In many areas of the country, especially in the South, the situation for animals is desperate: Chained outside and starving, homeless and running loose, or just simply no longer wanted and abandoned in an overburdened and underfunded facility that can’t possibly take another. For these animals, there is not much hope...except to look in the night sky for the North Star, their only way out. We are a group of passionate volunteers committed to saving these innocent dogs and finding them a new forever home. NorthStar Pet Rescue was founded in 2017, and although we might be a relatively new name among New Jersey animal rescues, you may recognize some of us from the work we’ve done volunteering with other rescues to help animals over the past decade. We are 100% dedicated to operating in a safe, transparent, and ethical manner, and to ensuring the best veterinary practices are followed with regards to the care and transport of our animals.

Description

NorthStar Pet Rescue is an all breed, senior focused animal rescue based in Northern New Jersey. Founded in 2017 by a passionate group of volunteers with 15 years of rescue and animal advocacy experience, we work both locally and internationally to help animals in need. Our primary focus is dogs, but we occasionally help rescue cats and assist with TNR efforts locally. Most of our dogs come from Texas and other areas of the south where so many animals are euthanized simply because there are so many that are abandoned and so little space. We are seeking new volunteers in the following areas: Fundraising, Grant Writing, and Event management. Since we are foster based, we do not have a kennel facility where volunteers can get hands-on experience with dogs or contribute with physical labor, but there are limited opportunities to volunteer to handle dogs at events or on transport days.
