A Sanctuary For All

Our Mission

Who We Are

Sierra Overlook Animal Rescue (SOAR) provides a safe and loving sanctuary for animals in need—those who have been abused, abandoned, or can no longer survive in the wild. Through compassionate care, lifelong support, and a commitment to rehabilitation, we help animals heal and thrive. Our mission is to create a deeper connection between people, animals, and the environment through education, advocacy, and community-driven conservation.

Nonprofit Initiatives

Animal Rescue

At SOAR, our rescue efforts focus on responding to animals in crisis—whether abandoned, injured, neglected, or displaced by environmental threats. We provide emergency care, medical treatment, and safe transport to our facility, where each animal receives individualized support and a chance to heal. Our goal is to rehabilitate animals for release or adoption whenever possible, while offering permanent sanctuary to those who cannot return to the wild or domestic life.

Support Us

Life-Long Sanctuary

SOAR’s life-long sanctuary offers a safe, peaceful haven for animals who cannot be released or rehomed due to injury, trauma, or special needs. In our care, these animals live out their lives with dignity in a natural, enriching environment tailored to their physical and emotional well-being. Each resident becomes part of our extended family, receiving daily attention, medical care, and the compassion they deserve.

Animal Stories

Education & Outreach

SOAR’s education and outreach programs aim to inspire compassion, environmental awareness, and responsible stewardship through hands-on learning and community engagement. We partner with local schools, host workshops, and offer on-site tours and presentations that connect people of all ages with animals, rescue work, and conservation efforts. By fostering understanding and empathy, we empower the next generation to protect animals and the natural world.

Programs

Foster-to-Adopt Animals

Our Foster-to-Adopt option lets families welcome a rescue animal into their home on a trial basis, with full support from SOAR. It’s a beautiful way to help a life in need — and maybe find your newest family member along the way.

Lani

Hi, I’m Lani — a stunning Belgian Malinois and Husky mix with a heart as big as my energy! I’m playful, loyal, and full of love once I get to know you. I’ve been through a lot, but I’m learning every day that people can be kind, patient, and safe.

I’m looking for an experienced, active dog owner who understands that I need structure, consistency, and lots of exercise to be my happiest self. I love long walks, adventures, and spending quality time with my person.

Because I can be reactive around other dogs and small animals, I need to be the only pet in the home — trust me, I’ll give you more than enough love to make up for it! 🐾

If you’ve got room in your heart (and a good pair of running shoes), I’d love to be your loyal companion for life.

Bagheera

Hi there — I’m Bagheera, a little gray kitten with a big heart and an even bigger spirit! 💛 I’m paraplegic, which means I get around a little differently, but I don’t let that stop me from playing, exploring, and soaking up all the love I can find.

I’m looking for a foster-to-adopt home where I can get lots of one-on-one attention. My dream match is someone who’s home often — maybe retired or working from home — and who loves cats as much as I love being loved! I do best in calm home environments and get along well with other gentle animals who will treat me kindly.

I may be small, but I’ve got the heart of a lion — and I’m ready to share it with someone special.
