About FindARescue.ie

FindARescue.ie is Ireland's most comprehensive database of animal rescue organisations, shelters, and welfare groups. Our mission is to:

• Promote the incredible work of animal rescue organisations across Ireland
• Encourage pet adoption instead of purchasing
• Raise awareness of local wildlife welfare groups

Who are we

FindARescue.ie is a private, fully volunteer-led project. We don't receive any funding, grants, or payments. We do not advertise and we do not sell any user data.

I created this website as a passion project after working with many amazing animal rescues and seeing how dedicated and hardworking these organisations are. Even though they work night and day to support animals, they never have enough support or resources.

My goal is to shine a light on these organisations and ensure that the public is aware of the great work that animal rescue groups do. In turn I hope we can get more animals adopted instead of bought, more donations, more volunteers, and more support for animal welfare in general.

NB: FindARescue.ie is not a rescue or charity organization and we will never reach out asking for donations. Report any suspicious messages immediately.
