Pet Tales Rescue is a network of fosters and volunteers that work to find the perfect homes for animals in need.

Our cats and dogs are housed in foster homes and treated like family. This gives us the advantage of getting to know each one as an individual; once we have an understanding of their specific personality and needs, we can find them the perfect home!

Find Your New Best Friend

Our mission is to match pets with their perfect forever family.

Phyllis had a rough start in life coming from a home that had over 100 cats! She was an excellent mama to her babies and is now looking for her forever home. She is 2 years old and good with kids and respectful dogs. Given her start in life, she is very selective about what adult cats she is willing to get along with but she does love kittens. She is extremely loving, but does need time to feel safe and comfortable in new environments. She is worth the patience and deserves a fabulous life. She is spayed, vaccinated, microchipped, and ready to meet you. Apply at pettalesrescue.com View full description »

Meet Juba: A Loving Soul in Need of a Special Someone Juba is a sweet, 7-year-old calico who has known love and loss. She was adopted as a kitten and spent seven wonderful years with her human, only to be returned to our rescue after her loving owner sadly passed away. Juba has been in foster care for 186 days now (as of 10/15/24), and though she enjoys the companionship of her foster mom, she’s still a little confused and misses her previous home. She is currently in a foster home with 8 other adult cats and it’s a bit overwhelming for her. She would love a more quiet, laid back vibe. Juba loves nothing more than sitting beside you while you work from home or curl up with a good book. She also has a playful side and loves wand toys! She’s not a fan of other animals and would thrive as the one and only pet in your home. Juba is looking for a patient, understanding adopter who is willing to give her the time she needs to adjust. Once she feels safe and secure, Juba’s true personality shines—she’s the sweetest, most loyal companion you could ask for. If you’re looking for a beautiful, loving cat to be your one-and-only, Juba could be the perfect match. She just needs someone to give her a chance to love again. Will it be you? Juba is spayed, microchipped, and up to date on all vaccines. She’s also FeLV/FIV negative. Apply at pettalesrescue.com View full description »

This 2 year old Sweetheart is Venus! She is the softest kitty and has the cutest tiny voice. She needed quite a bit of TLC initially and has been an outstanding patient, both with oral meds and extensive treatment to save her vision. While that left her with some eye scarring, we’re ecstatic that she can see with both eyes. She loves being petted and especially belly rubs! She’s litter box trained, gets along with other cats, but is shy around dogs. She is spayed, vaccinated, microchipped, and ready to meet her forever family.

The Pet Tales Journey

1. Rescue

When we’re contacted about an animal in need, we work quickly to determine the best course of action. If that course means coming into our rescue, we mobilize right away to secure the animal and place it safely within a foster home.

4. Sterilization

Spaying and neutering is something we feel very strongly about here at Pet Tales. EVERY animal we take in is fixed (sterilized) prior to finding their new home. We work hard to educate our community about the benefits of neutering their pet, and we believe this type of education is key to reducing pet overpopulation and overall shelter numbers.

2. Foster

Once we’ve successfully placed the pet within a foster home, the road to adoption begins! Their new foster will make sure they’re comfortable, clean, and given ample decompression time. From there, the foster will evaluate their personality and assess their specific needs.

5. Find a Home

The best part of all! Once our foster pets are ready mentally and medically, we begin the process of finding them the perfect forever-home. This begins with potential adopters filling out our online application. Once we have screened the applicant and determined whether their lifestyle seems like a good fit for the desired animal, we set up a meet and greet. If the meetup is successful and both parties are in agreement about adopting the pet, we finalize the adoption!

3. Screening & Treatment

We waste no time having new foster animals seen by a veterinarian! They are thoroughly checked over, tested for various ailments (such as parasites or heartworm), and vaccinated appropriately.

6. Follow Up Support

When you adopt a pet from us, you are NEVER alone! Our ultimate goal is to unite our fosters with their perfect family, and for them to spend a lifetime together. To ensure this goal is met, we will provide continuous support and advice whenever needed, for the life of your pet.

Happy Tales

“This is my little girl Vera. I adopted her from Pet Tales in April 2019. She had the same rough start that Luna had. Pet Tales took great care of her. She had many teeth removed and also one eye. She is spoiled rotten and I love her so much.”

– Pat Clark-Saur

“This is Rozie. We rescued her 5 years ago from Pet Tales. She is the sweetest dog we have ever had. At 1 year old she became part of a pet therapy group called Pet A Pet. We primarily go to Beaumont Hospital – Taylor, MI. She loves visiting the patients. We have been so blessed to have this sweet girl as part of our family. Thank you to Pet Tales for all of the hard work you put into rescuing these animals.”

– Jenny King Baugh

“Our Sweet Peanut….adopted this past summer (2020). An amazingly sweet girl, who loves any and all attention. She has completed our little family more than we could have ever hoped! Thank you so much, Pet Tales for our sweet girl”

– Kevin & Becky Thompson

Pet Tales Rescue was established in 2010…

By people who had spent several years volunteering with other rescues. They decided to take their many years of knowledge and experience out on their own to help find homes for abused and abandoned pets. We are committed to finding loving, permanent homes that will provide the love, companionship, and quality care that every animal deserves.
