Rest.Q Animal Sanctuary is a registered charity that provides permanent housing to over 140 formerly abused, abandoned, and neglected animals. Rest.Q is a volunteer-run organization that strives to provide exemplary care and a stable home to formerly unwanted pets and livestock. Education plays a big role in Rest.Q’s work with tours available for visitors, a summer intern program for teens, and a weekly program for at-risk adolescents from the local high school.


Rest.Q’s mission is to:
provide permanent shelter to unwanted animals
provide temporary assistance to animals in need
educate the community and visitors about responsible animal stewardship.
Please consider supporting the animals at Rest.Q with a one-time donation or through the monthly sponsorship of one of the residents. Rest.Q is not-for-profit society under BC’s Societies Act and a registered charity with Canada Revenue Agency (Charity No: 83035 9568 RR0001).
