Our Misson

PAWSibilities Animal Rescue is compiled of a caring staff whose goal is to save and improve the lives of domestic animals. Whether sick, injured, stray, or abandoned, PAWSibilities is there to give animals the love and care they deserve. We are a no-kill shelter with a wish to make a difference in the lives of the animals we rescue. We strive to educate the public on the animal overpopulation problem and the importance of spaying and neutering, so more people will realize the benefits of opting to adopt instead of buying a pet. We provide medical attention to the animals in our care, as well as love and companionship. Our animals are like family. We want what is best for them, which means searching hard to find them forever homes.

PAWSibilities Animal Rescue was founded in 2009 by Samantha Carroll. It is located in Skippack, Pennsylvania, and is a non-profit, no-kill shelter dedicated to serving animals in need. We provide a safe and loving environment for all domestic animals that have been abused, abandoned, neglected, or simply unloved. We provide shelter and care to all types of animals including cats, rabbits, guinea pigs, birds, reptiles, sheep, goats and more! Our hope is to rehabilitate and home all animals that come through our doors. This, however, is not always possible, and therefore we do have some resident animals that provide friendship and act as shelter ambassadors.

As a teenager, Samantha saw a need for an energetic non-profit to support our community's animals. Now as a young mother, she continues her quest to help homeless and sick animals. She is a great role model for young people, teaching about animal behavior, care, and medicine.

PAWSibilities has many ways the community can be involved, through volunteering opportunities, internships, youth camps, and pet adoptions. We've grown considerably since 2009, all thanks to the helping hands of this amazing community!
