About Saving With Soul Pet Rescue
Saving with Soul is a group of devoted animal rescuers based in Okaloosa County in the Panhandle of Florida. We specialize in finding homeless animals forever homes through a one-of-a-kind pet adoption center, an extensive foster program and weekly adoption events. We have been together since 2012 when we came into existence as volunteers focusing exclusive on one shelter, but in 2017 we went out on our own. We work with shelters and families in Okaloosa, Walton and Santa Rosa Counties; and bring in more than 100 animals per month.
In 2025, we made a huge leap of faith and moved our entire operation to a beautiful 17.5 acre campus in Baker, Florida. The property houses our unique PAWds at PUPVille dog adoption village, The Mythical Farm, The Groom Room grooming spa, the Rainbow Bridge, a Senior Center, the CatNap Inn cat boarding cottage and most recently, our community veterinary clinic. Yes, all of this in the middle of cotton fields in northern Okaloosa County! It’s really something to see – please visit us and prepare to be impressed!
We area 501c3 non-profit organization, so any donations made to our group are tax-deductible and will be used 100% to help us Make Miracles Happen for homeless pets. So donate with confidence!

The young pup and the older dog lay on shaded sweet grass watching the reunions. Sometimes a man, sometimes a woman, sometimes a whole family would approach the Rainbow Bridge, be greeted by their loving pets and cross the bridge together.
The young pup playfully nipped at the older one. “Look! Something wonderful is happening!”
The older dog stood up and barked, “Quickly. Get over to the path.”
“But that’s not my owner,” whined the pup, but he did as he was told.
Thousands of pets surged forward as a figure in white walked on the path toward the bridge. As the glowing figure passed each animal, that animal bowed its head in love and respect. The figure finally approached the bridge, and was met by a menagerie of joyous animals. Together, they all walked over the bridge and disappeared.
The young pup was still in awe. “Was that an angel?” he whispered.
“No, son,” the older dog replied. “That was a rescuer.”
