HAPPY FEET PET RESCUE
Education, fostering, financial assistance, and adoption
Introduction to us!
Welcome! We're so glad you found us and are ready to make a difference.
Happy Feet Pet Rescue is a nonprofit organization dedicated to helping dogs and cats in need. We were founded in 2020 with a mission to provide second chances to animals, and in 2022, we proudly opened our rescue building in the Lansing area. This space allows us to house up to 6 dogs and 12 cats and serve even more animals in need.
Our rescue is run almost entirely by volunteers, including our two co-founders who continue to lead the organization with heart and dedication. We're supported by an incredible board of directors who help keep us organized, provide diverse perspectives on big decisions, and help shape the future of our rescue. In addition, we’re fortunate to have a passionate team of volunteers who assist with everything from events and adoptions to transportation, administrative work, and daily care of our rescue pets.
We encourage you to explore our website, learn more about our mission, and reach out with any questions. We’re so excited to have you here as part of our growing rescue community!
OUR WHY
Our team has seen the desperate need of an animal’s soulful eyes when visiting shelters and we understand the pain when hardship happens, and families need to let go of their pets. Our hearts break for the families and the animals in every situation and we felt ourselves being pulled closer and closer to finding a way to help bridge the gap in such hard times.
We created this nonprofit to raise awareness on pet ownership, assist in temporary homes for dogs and cats needing a second chance, and help match our rescue animals with the best homes possible. Our top priority is each animal that needs help and we will provide a judgement-free and safe place for each animal and humans involved.
Please join our mission and follow us on social media, send a donation our way, sign up to be a foster parent, or consider welcoming a new family member. Every ounce of support and kindness allows us to help even more dogs and cats in need.
