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.
How We've Made an Impact
We just finished our first "assignment" as boarders and we LOVED it.
We ended up having the dogs a little longer than planned but didn't mind a bit and then we got to dog-sit an extra week when Mom went on vacation.
I can't wait to see them again-in their home and playing in their field, running free-something I was too nervous to let them do while they were in my charge.
We've signed up for another assignment already. We're very thankful!
A Unique Haven for Animals
What sets Dog Heaven apart from other rescues and shelters?
A Forever Home
Unlike shelters that focus on adoption, we provide a permanent, loving sanctuary for animals who have nowhere else to go.
Resort-Style Living
Our animals enjoy open spaces, enrichment activities, and the highest level of care to ensure their happiness and well-being.
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.
