Saving Animals & Finding Homes

Pearl’s Place is a sanctuary named after Pearl, a beloved 12-year-old yellow lab we rescued from the Harker Heights, TX animal shelter just one day before she was scheduled for euthanasia. Pearl lived with us for four wonderful years, enriching our lives and embodying the spirit of second chances. During the COVID-19 pandemic, when our grooming business was temporarily closed, we transformed our empty boarding kennels into Pearl’s Place, officially registering as a 501(c)(3) nonprofit in February 2021. Our mission is to offer a loving refuge for senior and special needs dogs, helping them recover and heal both mentally and physically.

At Pearl’s Place, we embrace dogs with unique needs, including those with skin conditions, long-term shelter residents, and even strays without a home. With expert guidance from Dr. Faver and Suzanne Marchetti, we use premium Iv San Barnard products from Italy and innovative hydro-massage ozone baths to treat our dogs’ skin conditions, providing them with the care they need to thrive. Our dedicated team, including a newly added qualified pet aesthetician, ensures that every dog receives personalized attention and care.

Adopting a dog from Pearl’s Place is a rewarding journey that brings joy and companionship to both you and your new furry friend. Each dog has a unique personality and story, waiting to be shared with a loving family. The bond you form through adoption is built on trust and love, offering an incredible sense of fulfillment as you watch your new companion blossom.

Rusty, a recent addition to Pearl’s Place, exemplifies the joy of adoption. After spending over 400 days at the Humane Society of Central Texas animal shelter in Waco, TX, Rusty has found a chance to thrive with us. As our ambassador for dogs facing uncertain futures, Rusty is learning to live with other dogs, experience the joys of a loving home, and discover his potential as a great companion.

Our goal is to raise funds for a state-of-the-art boarding and rehabilitation center, providing a safe, fully fenced environment where dogs can run freely and enjoy life to the fullest. This facility will feature dedicated spaces for senior dogs and a visitor center where our animals can receive the love and attention they deserve.

Join us in our mission to provide a safe haven for dogs in need and experience the joy of adoption. Together, we can make a difference in the lives of these wonderful animals and share the love they have to offer.
