Rescue FAQs

Hudson Valley Animal Rescue & Sanctuary (HVARS) is a 501c3 non-profit animal rescue, wildlife rehabilitation center & low cost vet service clinic. Our mission started when we felt there was such a need to be able to bring affordable vet care to our community. In 2011 we opened our first low cost spay/neuter and vaccine clinic as a mobile hospital. Weekly we ran clinics out of our local Petco's parking lot where people were able to come and receive vaccines and affordable spaying & neutering services. From there we saw how much of an impact our services had on the community and how much we were needed. In 2015 we opened our stationary hospital that we run out of to this day. We renovated an old barn on our founders property and little by little made it ready to serve the community in so many ways. We are now a multi Vet facility that offers everything from wellness clinics to more complex surgeries, dentals, x-rays, bloodwork and more. We are so happy to be able to offer all these services and only wish to continue to grow and help more people and their pets. All of the money that comes through our clinic services is given right back to our animals that we take in, rescue, rehabilitate and adopt out. It is also used for the hundreds of wildlife we take in orphaned, injured or misplaced every year. We have 4 NYS wildlife & RVS licensed rehabilitators on staff and many other volunteering under our organization to nurse orphaned wildlife such as squirrels, raccoons, possums, skunks, fawn, fox and woodchucks. We are not open to the public and all services are done by appointment only so please call ahead. We are open 7 days a week and here to help!
