Our Mission

coastal pet rescue at the savannah sand gnats
Coastal Pet Rescue is an all-volunteer 501(c)(3) non-profit animal rescue organization based in Savannah, Georgia dedicated to saving the lives of homeless, abused and neglected dogs and cats in the Coastal Empire Savannah and Lowcountry South Carolina areas.

Coastal Pet Rescue does not operate a shelter. All our pets are in foster homes. Appointments to see pets may be made once an adoption application has been completed and reviewed.

Who We Are

We're a young organization, but we're making a difference in our community. Since Coastal Pet Rescue was founded February 5, 2003, the organization's volunteers have worked together to save over 600 pets. We're animal lovers trying to change lives, one at a time.

What We Do

Coastal Pet Rescue offers multiple services for our community. First and foremost, we provide pet rescue to homeless pets through local county animal shelters, placement assistance for owners needing to rehome their pets, and a feral cat trap-neuter-return program. We also serve as an educational resource to the community, providing humane education opportunities and low-cost microchipping clinics. Learn more>>>
