• Fostering Community: Committed to finding forever homes for cats and dogs through foster and adopters.
• Phoenix Fund for Special Needs: Providing veterinary care for animals in need of healing.

Our Vision

A Minnesota where all pets live in safe, loving homes.

But the biggest impact is on pets' lives! 

This is a "Before-After" photo from a group of Shitzus we rescued in partnership with a local animal control agency. The pups were involved in an animal cruelty case. Pet Haven cleaned them, medically treated them, and are currently placing them with foster/adoption homes.
