Request A Rescue Mission
* IMPORTANT PLEASE READ BEFORE POSTING *
How does this work?
Shelters submit their rescue request. The request will be reviewed by our team, and if approved, will be sent out to our network of volunteer pilots/drivers. At that point, the pilot(s) and/or driver(s) will "bid" on the leg(s) they wish to transport. You can have direct communication with these volunteers through the transport board. Our staff will provide assistance when necessary.
DISCLAIMER: THIS IS A DO-IT-YOURSELF TRANSPORT BOARD. PILOTS TO THE RESCUE CAN NOT GUARANTEE, BE HELD LIABLE, OR TAKE ANY RESPONSIBILITY FOR THE VOLUNTEERS YOU INTERACT WITH.
Guidelines for posting rescue requests:
- Please only post transports of animals that are in danger and/or at risk of being euthanized. Do NOT post requests to transport personal pets.
- You MUST have a recipient shelter for PTTR to do a transport. If you don't have a shelter, please view find a shelter.
- PTTR CAN'T be compensated to transport animals (although donations are welcome). All our volunteers are doing this on their own time and out of their own pocket.
- Requests that are less than 500 miles one-way are going to have the best chance of success (otherwise it will require multiple pilots/drivers). Consider driving yourself (or finding drivers) to go part of the way to accomodate our volunteer pilots/drivers if he or she are unwilling to go the whole distance.
