About Us

Our goal is to give dogs temporary foster homes, care, and love while they look for their future homes.

PetStar focuses on finding homes for pets that are privately owned and from animal rescue, listing foster carers for rescues to contact and increasing foster carers' and rescues' knowledge of dog and cat behaviour/training and care.

Every dog is deserving of another opportunity. We put a lot of effort into saving pets from abusive situations, high-kill shelters, and neglected households. Dogs can rehabilitate and thrive in a secure environment created by our group of committed volunteer-based Animal Rescues and Foster Carers.

We can only continue to save the lives of dogs and cats in need and place them in devoted permanent homes with your support.

We've fetched some numbers for you...

We collaborate with shelters and rescue groups to bring you dogs of diverse breeds, sizes, and ages, ensuring that you will find the ideal match for your character and way of life.
