Companion homestead
Welcome to our page!
Companion Homestead is a 501(c)3 nonprofit organization here in Rochester, MN and our mission is to help support shelter dogs to end the cycle of returns.
Our mission to end the cycle of returns involves not only providing support and services to shelter dogs, but to provide an alternative home to those that cannot thrive in a traditional home setting. That is where our Sanctuary comes in! By 2027, we will have a Sanctuary for dogs to call home. The residents of our Sanctuary will be pups that are considered “unadoptable”. They will have a variety of different reasons that they have been deemed this; whether for behavioral reasons, medical reasons, or past histories that prevent them from flourishing in a typical home..
Interested in becoming a member?
When you become a member you will receive quarterly newsletters about the events and happenings of Companion Homestead, along with the knowledge that you are helping build a forever home for pups in need.

Social Hour
We officially launched our first program: Social Hour!
This program takes place at Companion Acres & gives an opportunity for long-term Paws & Claws Humane Society pups to have time away from the shelter, while socializing with new people & new pups. When taking a new pup home from the shelter, it can be hard to know certain things, like: how do they do with other pups (big or small), or how do they do in a new environment, or do they have anxieties about certain people, etc.
But by offering Social Hour, we are not only able to give them time to play & relax outside of the shelter, but we’re also able to learn more about those unknowns & provide that information to potential new families, & ultimately, stopping the cycle of the pup being returned to the shelter
