House with a Heart Pet Sanctuary Inc

About Us

In 2006, Sher Polvinale and her late husband, Joe, created a senior pet sanctuary in their home. Sanctuary residents are dogs and cats who had lost their families and homes through no fault of their own. Because of their advanced age and various medical conditions, they had little chance of being adopted. Once a dog became a resident, it would have a loving home for life. Our Director Sher devotes herself full-time to caring for the pets and maintaining and improving the Sanctuary. For other senior dogs, we provide a “Helping Hand” by getting the word out about their special needs, and encourage others to give them a forever home. Another way we help Senior and Special needs dogs and cats...
