      • Our Story

        Dog Heaven was born from a deep, unwavering love for animals and a calling to provide refuge for those who need it most. Founded by Nita Marie and Dustin, our sanctuary began with a simple yet powerful vision: to create a safe, forever home for dogs, cats, and horses deemed "unadoptable."

      • How Dog Heaven

        Came to Life

        Dog Heaven began with a simple but powerful mission: to give vulnerable animals the life they deserve. After achieving career success, Nita and her husband Dustin felt a deep calling to give back. Her lifelong bond with animals made it clear—a sanctuary was the answer.

        Then came Elsa, a rescued wolf-dog who changed everything. Her arrival wasn’t just chance; it was fate. Elsa needed a place where she was truly understood, and in creating that space for her, Dog Heaven became more than a dream—it became a haven where every animal is seen, valued, and loved.

        A Forever Home

        Unlike shelters that focus on adoption, we provide a permanent, loving sanctuary for animals who have nowhere else to go.

        A Connection to Nature

        and Spirituality

        We believe that animals bring us closer to nature—and to something greater than ourselves. Our sanctuary is a place where both humans and animals can find peace, healing, and renewal.
