HART’s mission is to rescue homeless animals, saving them from euthanization, abandonment, and abuse with the goal of placing them in forever homes.
STEP 1) View our available dogs and cats and read the bios. We always have additional rescues in our foster homes who are not yet ready for adoption, so if you don’t see a specific dog or cat you want, please proceed to step 2 anyway. We can help you find the pet that is a good match for you and the pet. STEP 2) Complete an Adoption Application. This is a required step in the process whether you are interested in a specific pet or just looking to adopt a pet in general, but you aren’t sure which one yet. Our volunteers will forward your application for a specific pet to the foster family and if your application is being considered, they will reach out to you to make sure the pet is a good match for your home. If you are interested in adopting but don’t have a specific pet in mind, a volunteer will reach out to you to help find the perfect match. STEP 3) Meet-and-Greet. Once your application has been screened by the foster family to ensure a good match, he/she will arrange for you to meet the pet. This may take place as a home visit, a meet-up at a Petsmart store, a park, or whatever works best for the foster family, the pet, and you. STEP 4) Complete Adoption. Congratulations on finding the pet that is right for you! The final step is to complete our adoption contract and submit the adoption fee. The foster volunteer will provide all necessary paperwork. The adoption fee can be paid by cash, check, or credit card at the time of adoption. An application does not obligate you to adopt. Please understand that due to the volume of applications some animals may receive, we are unable to contact all applicants right away. If your application is considered a good fit for the pet you are interested in, or even a different pet, a volunteer will reach out to you within a week of receipt.
