My name is Mookie!

When you see a pet that interests you, you must complete an over the phone adoption application before we schedule a visit.


adopt a pet, an adoption contract will be complete along with other paper work regarding spay/neuter if applicable and health information. We are available 7 days a week by appointment for adoptions. The adoption fee for varies and is clearly stated in the description for that pet. The adoption fees are in place to partially reimburse for the care, feeding, housing and medical care for all the animals in my care. Thank you for Choosing Rescue.

I schedule meet and greets off site, usually at a Pet Supplies plus or similar store, by appt.

I have been doing animal rescue all of my life. In 1983 I received my diploma from Wayne County Community College and became a licensed Veterinary technician. I no longer practice under that license but use the knowledge I gained for the care of the animals.
For Almost 2 years I had done foster care for a local dog and puppy rescue. In September of 2014, I had the opportunity to start my own rescue and to change this part time passion into a full time mission. I launched Sunnies ARK, Rescue Sanctuary. I know there are many reasons animals end up needing to be rehomed. I don't judge, I just try to do what is best for the animal involved. I do mainly special needs rescue and those animals are in my Sunnies Sanctuary meaning they are not available for adoption. My main adoption focus is on puppy and dog placement but I have worked with just about any other animal.
We are always looking for volunteers to help with the care of the animals and donations of pet supplies, nylabones and puppy pads are always needed and dog food, especially high quality grain free food And fencing.
