Rescued Pets Movement
How It Works
How It Works
- Rescued Pets Movement partners with reputable rescue groups across the United States to identify animals from BARC (Houston’s City Pound) and other area shelters to transport to our rescue partners across the US.
- Each dog and cat RPM rescues are fully examined and treated by our in-house clinic and
- The rescued pets are then placed temporarily with volunteer fosters or at our boarding facility until they are ready to transport.
- Using our own vans and drivers, RPM transports the rescued pets to our rescue partner organizations throughout the country, where they are quickly adopted into forever homes.
Transport Days
RPM owns several Mercedes Sprinter vans, each outfitted to transport approximately 140 animals per week via the following current transports:
- Weekly to Denver, Colorado
- Once every other week to Charlottesville, Virginia
- Monthly trips to Chicago, Illinois (depending on the weather)

Why I Foster…
“We are all a spoke on the wheel of animal welfare. We need all the spokes to make the wheel go around to try to put an end to the animal welfare crisis in America. It starts with me. I feel like everyone always thinks someone else will do it.”
“In a city overwhelmed with unwanted animals and a constant stream of pets being dropped at shelters like BARC, fostering for RPM feels like the very least I can do to give a dog a second chance.”
