So you want to save an animal by adopting a rescued pet? Awesome! But how can you be sure you’re taking home the right one — the one who fits with your lifestyle, is a hit with your family, and connects with you on a deep level?
At Northwest Animal Companions, all our rescued cats and dogs are fostered in the homes of our dedicated volunteers. We spend serious quality time getting to know these pets and our adoptive families, too — ensuring you’re matched with the perfect furry BFF.

20 Years of Saving Portland’s Pets
Northwest Animal Companions began when a few animal rescuers banded together to share their extra cash and supplies, seeing strength in numbers. Twenty years later, NWAC has saved thousands of cats and dogs and counts more than 100 people as active volunteers.
Though our organization has gone through many changes, our values have remained the same: To save as many animals as possible and provide the highest quality of life possible.
