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!

How it Works

Find Your New Best Friend

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

Dillamond

Meet Dillamond! Dillamond is the thoughtful one of the bunch. He loves to play but tends to take a moment to observe before jumping into the fun. He’s got a steady, easygoing nature and will grow into a loyal, loving companion. If you want a best friend with both brains and heart, Dillamond is the pup for you. Dillamond is part of a litter of seven puppies born January 1st, so the pups are about 9 weeks old. They are terrier mixes - pictures of both mom and dad are included. Based on their current age and weights, they will likely be between 30-50lbs fully grown. They are young so they should be good with dogs, cats, and older children. They’ve all received their first vaccine, heartworm prevention, and have been spayed/neutered. Interested? Apply at pettalesrescue.com! View full description »

Mr. Carsen

Mr. Carsen is a long-haired 3 year old neutered male Nebelung cat. Mr. Carsen is a strikingly handsome and distinguished gentleman, partly due to his beautiful fluffy coat. Unfortunately, his coat requires very regular grooming to keep it from matting, and he does not enjoy it and will sometimes bite reactively when brushed in certain areas. He can also do this is occasionally if he is surprised by or uncomfortable with being pet, so he will require a home without young children. He can be very sweet and cuddly with his people when he is comfortable, and has made a lot of progress in his foster home with this and even enjoys being brushed in certain areas now. Mr. Carsen is good with dogs and other cats. He likes to follow his person from room to room and responds to voice commands more like a dog than a cat. He is also very vocal kitty and will let you know if you missed treat time. Mr. Carsen is very food motivated, and the best way to distract him while grooming is with wet food and snacks. A patient and understanding adopter that is willing to work with him on his fear about being groomed and touched in certain areas will have a very cool and interesting kitty. Mr. Carsen is microchipped, neutered and UTD on his vaccinations. To meet Mr. Carsen, please apply at PetTalesrescue.com View full description »

The Pet Tales Journey

Our Process

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.
