Move at-risk animals to the right rescue — faster
RescueSentry matches shelters that need to move an animal with rescues that have room and the right program — filtered by each rescue's real intake rules, ranked by open capacity and urgency. When both sides agree, contact unlocks and the transfer is tracked to completion.

Why matching by rules matters
A rescue that only takes small dogs, or won't take bite histories, or is already full, is a dead end — but a shelter can't know that without a phone call. RescueSentry encodes each rescue's species, size, medical, behavior, and capacity limits so a shelter sees only real options, and a rescue only sees animals it can actually help.
Free for rescues and shelters
RescueSentry is free to join — no subscription, no per-animal fees. Every organization is verified before it can post or pull, so you're always working with legitimate shelters and rescues.
