North Star Rescue is a rescue for pet rodents based in the San Francisco Bay Area, with locations in Danville/Diablo, Napa, Santa Rosa, Sonoma and San Jose. We are a network of private foster homes and public adoption outposts. Our foster homes may be entirely private, showing their animals at adoption events, and some also permit private adoption appointments for animals under their care. Our public adoption outposts are partnerships with privately owned pet stores that show adoptable animals in their store, where you can visit animals at any time without an appointment.
North Star Rescue provides rescue, foster and adoption services for Guinea Pigs, Rats, Hamsters, Mice and Chinchillas. They primarily take in animals who would otherwise be euthanized at shelters, and accept private surrenders of animals when space permits at the rescue.
