About this shelter

ROC the Dogs Rescue, Inc. in Rochester, NY

We are a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization established in 2010 with the mission of rehoming abused, neglected, and abandoned dogs. Rather than utilizing a shelter, we rely on a comprehensive foster network where all our dogs reside until they are adopted. Since our inception, we have successfully found homes for over 200 dogs, and we remain committed to helping every dog that comes into our care. Our passion for these animals drives us. All our staff members are volunteers who foster dogs, work at the adoption center, and help organize events out of their genuine love for these animals. Our motivation is not financial; instead, we are dedicated to loving and assisting these dogs for as long as it takes.

Adopting from ROC the Dogs Rescue, Inc.

Adoption process

Our adoption process involves a thorough application procedure that includes veterinary reference checks to ensure that all current and past pets have received proper care. We conduct additional reference checks to assess the suitability of the applicant. Home visits are carried out, both individually and with the potential dog, to confirm that the environment will be loving and appropriate. Finally, the process concludes with the payment of an adoption fee and the signing of a contract.

Service area: Monroe County, which includes the cities of Rochester, Greece, Irondequoit, Webster, Gates, and Chili, as well as the surrounding rural areas.
