When disaster strikes, animals can’t save themselves.
Trained people can

We prepare individuals, teams, and communities to rescue animals in the most dangerous situations - from depths, heights and water. Through live, professional training, standardized international protocols, advanced equipment, and a growing U.S.-focused responder network, we turn compassion into life-saving action.

Become a certified animal rescuer and be ready when your community needs you most

Disasters and everyday rescue situations happen everywhere, from floods and wildfires to a dog trapped in a well or a cat stranded on a rooftop. When these moments occur, trained responders make the difference between panic and safe rescue. ATRUSA helps individuals become certified animal technical rescuers through professional training and international expertise. Prepared rescuers protect animals, support families, and strengthen entire communities.

More About Us

WHY THIS MATTERS

50 Hours of Training Stand Between Chaos and Rescue.
Floods don’t spare the dog in the basement. Fires don’t skip the cat under the bed.
When disaster strikes, animals wait. And wait. While humans evacuate, animals remain trapped, forgotten until it’s too late.

Become a Volunteer

One factor determines their fate: Was someone prepared?

The family that plans ahead saves their pets. The rescuer who trained in advance pulls animals from danger while others stand helplessly. But preparedness delivers more than saved animals.
The trained rescuer who frees a trapped dog also prevents the homeowner from rushing into a burning building. The responder who secures livestock protects a farmer’s livelihood. The team that evacuates animals keeps entire communities from returning to chaos. Every hour spent in preparation pays back tenfold when catastrophe arrives. The choice is simple: Prepare now or regret it when the emergency begins.
