Rescue Rovers

Rescue Rovers is a partner of Best Friends, working together to save the lives of dogs and cats in communities like yours across the country

The Best Friends Network is made up of thousands of public and private shelters, rescue groups, spay/neuter organizations, and other animal welfare groups — all working to save the lives of dogs and cats in communities like yours across the country.

No-Kill Utah (NKUT) is an initiative led by Best Friends that brings together passionate individuals, city shelters and a group of animal welfare organizations to end the  killing of dogs and cats in shelters throughout the state of Utah. 

From Rescue Rovers

Rescue Rovers started in November, 2012 as an all volunteer, non-profit group arranging transportation from high kill shelters to partner rescues in the Intermountain West. Our mission was to pool resources to maximize the number of dogs saved when a volunteer went to pull a dog from the shelter. We believed if we had an emtpy seat in the car, a kennel could go there and we could save more lives.
