About

Midwest Animal Rescue & Services (MARS) is committed to serving both pet and parent, finding homes for animals that were once lost, left behind and forgotten, while bringing harmony and enhancing education in our community. Midwest Animal Rescue & Services™ (MARS) is a dedicated and passionate group who rescues dogs and cats that are at risk and homeless through no fault of their own. Once in our care, these companion animals are vaccinated, microchipped, and spayed or neutered. Special attention is provided for those animals that need additional time and medical care before going to a new home. MARS is committed to helping pets in need whenever possible, including all breeds and ages. MARS does not have a shelter facility for boarding. We are a foster-based rescue group that runs on the support and aid of dedicated volunteers and supporters. Our fostered pets live in homes, as family members, receiving all of the love and care they would in an adoptive home, until they are adopted. The adopters gain greater insight into the pets’ behavior and personality versus interacting with an animal who has been living in a kennel and the pet is more prepared for a loving home life. This helps produce the best match possible for the new families, resulting in a 99% success rate! Looking for a furry friend? Let us help you find the perfect match! MARS is an IRS recognized 501(c)3 non-profit organization.

Adoption process

Watch your inbox for a “Welcome” Email from us and continued communication from our Adoption Team.

In most cases we are able to complete a virtual home study, however please note that depending on a dog's individual needs a physical home visit may be required to adopt. After your application has been processed a MARS Adoption team member will review it to help determine if the pet you are interested in fits your lifestyle, home environment and energy level. The Adoption team member will be in contact with you regarding the next steps and potentially setting up a meeting for you at our Adoption Center. Our adoption center offers large meeting rooms to allow you the opportunity to interact with your potential furry companion and space for the resident dog(s) and potential adopted dog to meet. If at any point in the process we or you find that the dog of your choice is not the perfect match, then we will work with you to find a dog that is more suitable and would make a GREAT addition to your home. Upon adoption, we require that you sign an adoption agreement and pay the adoption fee. All fees are subject to MN sales tax and a processing fee at the time of adoption.
