We are their voice.
Pet ResQ Inc. is 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.

Needed Donations
Thank you to all who have generously donated.
HUMC Fitness and Wellness Center (Not Hackensack Hospital) is accepting donations for the victims of Hurricane Dorian and now the Texas flooding. We are also collecting donations at Plaza Pet World on Washington St. in TENAFLY. Gift Cards or Monetary donations will also be accepted and supplies purchased with those donations. Click on any of the links at the top of this page and make a note "for Hurricane Dorian" or "for Texas Flood victims". Here is a list of supplies.
Spotlight on Darcy
Darcy is a Min Pin Mix. She is the sweetest dog around and loves everyone. Darcy survived the rural area of Louisiana. She had been shot with a BB gun and yet her disposition remains the same. Darcy is approximately 4-5 years old. She is current on her vaccines, spayed and loves other dogs.

About Us
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.

Our Goals
We were founded with the following goals:
-
To provide pet rescue services.
-
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 animals from being destroyed and work in cooperation with private and governmental agencies to promote the proper care and treatment of animals.
-
To aid, assist, cooperate, and co-sponsor in situations when needed to keep an animal with its family.
-
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.
