Animal Shelter in Rocky Mountain House🐾

Our directory provides an easy way to connect with local organizations passionately working to rehome animals and advocate for their well-being. Discover shelters near you, learn about adoption opportunities, and find out how you can contribute to the welfare of animals in Rocky Mountain House.

The Rocky Organization for Animal Rescue (ROAR Society) is a no‑kill, volunteer-driven non‑profit serving Rocky Mountain House, Clearwater County, and surrounding communities such as Sundre (via the S.A.F.E. project).

They rescue stray, abandoned, neglected or abused cats and dogs, providing medical care, vaccinations, rehabilitation, and foster placement before eventual adoption.

Adoptions (dogs and cats) require submission of a pre‑adoption form and are conducted by appointment only; placements are based on match suitability—not on a first‐come, first‐served policy.

The society depends on community support—donations, volunteer help, and foster families are central to its operations. They even offer reimbursements for spay/neuter procedures and keep a wish list for supplies like food, bedding, and cleaning products.

🐾 Tips & Practical Info

• Check online and social media: Stay updated on adoptable animals and alerts via their Facebook and Instagram pages (updates often come faster there than through email).
• Adoption reminders:
  • Dogs require a fenced yard or secure containment, depending on local by‐laws.
  • Adoption fees typically include spay/neuter, microchipping, vaccinations, deworming, and a vet check—with typical dog fees from CAD 350 to CAD 425; cats cost around CAD 50
• To foster or volunteer:
  • The process is flexible and welcomes any time commitment—from just 15 minutes to hours—depending on your interest and availability.
  • ROAR provides all basic supplies (food, crates, vet care, toys, etc.) for foster families.
• Lost & Found / emergency placements: The organization partners with local services to assist animals affected by emergencies or in dangerous situations—especially through Rocky Victim Services
