We are a Community Resource for you!
The "Sanctuary" is our concept for providing a nurturing environment for animals in need.
Our facility is home to most of our cats and dogs, although some reside in foster homes initially. This helps us to learn about their behavioral traits and make "right match" placements.
Our animals are spayed or neutered, vaccinated, treated for fleas and parasites and tested for heartworm. This means that any animal adopted from The Sanctuary at Haafsville is ready to start a new life in your home.
We are a volunteer-based organization and are very conservative financially which allows us to provide exceptional care to our resident animals. We are funded by our ongoing fundraising efforts, donations and our partnerships. Visit our Thank You page to see some of great organizations that have helped us in our first 10 years.
At The Sanctuary at Haafsville, our mission is to provide a safe and nurturing environment for animals in need. We empower them to heal, thrive and find loving forever homes through a volunteer community where each member is valued, supported, and appreciated. Through dedicated care, innovative programs, and community engagement, we strive to be a prominent advocate for animal welfare and promote responsible pet ownership.
Our vision at The Sanctuary at Haafsville is to create a kinder world where every animal is valued, respected, and loved. We envision a community where no animal is left behind, where their well-being is prioritized and where every pet has the opportunity to live a fulfilling life in a nurturing home. We aspire to be a leading voice in animal welfare by empowering individuals to make a positive difference in the lives of animals. Through our unwavering dedication, compassion, and innovation, we strive to build a brighter future for all animals, where they are cherished members of their family and community.
The Sanctuary at Haafsville believes that the celebration and nurturing of the human-animal bond captures the hearts, hands and minds of our community and enhances our quality of life.

Adoption Spotlight
We’re excited to show you who has been making great progress. Cindy came to the Sanctuary at Haafsville as a stray. For many weeks, she’s been scared and hunkered down in cat huts - rarely seeing the light of day. She had company as other cats would snuggle with her. With the help of caring volunteers, Cindy is more relaxed and brave. Just look at her posture and facial expression now. She shows her more confident self when it is quiet. In fact, she recently began jumping into the lap of her favorite volunteer for some attention. Cindy is staying out in the open and accepting pets, compliments and encouragement from volunteers. On adoption days, she will retreat to her safe space to avoid the activity and commotion. Cindy is still a work in progress. Her adopter must be acutely aware that she is starting to trust people and will need a great deal of patience, reassurance, understanding and love. Cindy deserves to continue her progress and journey in a quiet, safe and loving home.
Cindy is 3 years old, healthy, spayed, vaccinated, negative for FeLV/FIV, litter trained and microchipped.
