Our Mission
Strengthening the loving bonds between people and pets in our communities.
The Little Guild is dedicated to rescuing and nurturing homeless dogs and cats for adoption into safe and caring homes.
To improve well-being, we also provide educational programs and training, as well as medical, food and social services support to pet owners in need.



The Little Guild is a special place that goes well beyond taking care of the daily and medical needs of the animals. Our animals have individualized training and behavior assessments, playgroups, learning activities, temperament testing, socialization, appropriate exercise and mental stimulation. Our team really focuses on matching the animal to the best home, ensuring joyful and long-lasting adoptions for you and your families.
