Volunteer dog rescue team caring for a dog

We Believe Every Dog Is Worth Saving

Remember Me Rescue NY is a foster-based rescue on Long Island. We pull from ACC, Long Island shelters, and take owner surrenders — all breeds, all ages, with a special love for the seniors everyone else overlooks.

Our Story

Remember Me Rescue NY was built on one belief: every dog deserves to be remembered. We rescue from ACC, Long Island shelters, and accept owner surrenders — no breed turned away, no age too old, no medical need too great.

Every dog in our care receives the full veterinary treatment they need, and the emotional support to heal from whatever they've been through. They live in real homes with loving foster families — never a kennel — so we truly know who they are before they meet their forever family.

Senior dogs hold a special place in our hearts. They're the ones most often passed over, but they have so much love left to give. We're always involved in our dogs' lives — and if an adoption ever doesn't work out, we take our dogs back. No questions asked.

What guides us

All Breeds, All Ages

We rescue every dog regardless of breed, age, or medical needs — with a special dedication to senior dogs who deserve a loving final chapter.

Foster-Based Care

Every dog lives in a loving foster home — never a kennel. We provide full vet care and emotional support so each dog can heal and thrive.

Always Involved

Our commitment doesn't end at adoption. We stay connected with our adopters and always take our dogs back if a placement doesn't work out.

Local Adoptions Only

We adopt locally to NYC, Queens, Long Island, Westchester, and parts of CT and NJ — so we can truly know the homes our dogs go to.

Whether you're looking to adopt, foster, volunteer, or donate — there's a place for you in our rescue family.
