About Us

How We're Helping

We are a nonprofit organization focused on helping make the world around us a better, happier place for pets. With the help of our dedicated fosters and volunteers we provide a second chance for hundreds of homeless and abandoned pets every year.

We have recently expanded to also become a safe, happy place for dogs to come when their loved ones go out of town. I have been caring for animals my whole life and now that I am retired from law enforcement and hearing all the horror stories about dogs in boarding I wanted to offer a place where dogs can come to play, be safe, loved, and have fun when their owners are unavailable. The dogs have indoor/outdoor kennels which are heated in the winter and cooled in the summer, playtimes out on the property throughout the day, and extra services without nickel and diming the owners for wanting their pets to be loved, healthy, and happy. Please check out our boarding section for more information and photos.

Get Involved

Are you passionate about what we're doing? Let us know! We are always looking for volunteers to help us make our vision a reality. We'll help you find a way to volunteer that best suits you. We're excited to have you join the team! We are always looking for fosters who can love the animals in our care as much as every pet should be loved. We provide a crate, collar and leash, food, and vetting- you provide the love. We are also wanting to start a volunteer dog walkers program- people who volunteer to come to Peralta and pick up a dog for an hour or two and take them to the park, for a walk down a ditch bank, or just sit on the porch with them so they can learn that strangers aren't scary

We could always use your old blankets, toys, crates, dog food (we feed Nurtrisource, Fromm Gold, 4Health, or Costco's Nature's Domain), treats and chews for the dogs in our care, and donation items that can be put in auctions we hold to raise money to keep the rescue going. You can email us to pick up donations or mail/have them sent to Almost Home NM - PO Box 772- Peralta, NM 87042. Thank you so much for your support.
