Our Mission
Young at Heart's mission is to provide senior dogs and cats with a safe haven to ensure they live with comfort, compassion, and companionship in their golden years. We save the lives of homeless senior dogs and cats from situations where their age puts them first in line to be euthanized. We find loving homes for adoptable senior pets and offer a peaceful sanctuary life for those that are less adoptable.
We Are A Cage-Free Rescue Facility That Feels Like Home
Our cageless state-of-the-art adoption center located in Woodstock, IL is designed to look and feel like a home. From the minute a senior dog or cat walks through our doors, they are provided with the best care possible until forever homes are found, either with a new loving family, or through our Sanctuary Program. Please note: To keep our cage-free environment calm and comfortable for the animals, adoption visits are scheduled by appointment after an application is approved—we’re not able to accommodate drop-in adoptions.
Adopt
Browse our adoptable pets and find your new companion. Meet & Greets by appointment only with an approved application.

Our In-House Clinic Helps Provide Prompt Veterinary Care
The Foglia Senior Pet Veterinary Center located on site allows us to provide immediate high-quality, full-service care to our senior pets at our cost. Bloodwork, dentals, surgeries, X-rays, ultrasounds, cold laser therapy, and more can now be done right on site for our senior pets. It’s just a walk across the parking lot for our senior pets, making a trip to the vet not only more cost-effective, but less stressful for them, too.
