Until Such Time, Inc.

NonProfit Canine Sanctuary

Until Such Time is our canine sanctuary, a non-profit organization devoted to rescuing, rehabilitating, and rehoming medically and/or behaviorally complex dogs in need. Every service we provide supports this mission, helping us give second chances to animals waiting for their forever homes.

At The Pet Care Connection, we believe caring for pets means more than just meeting their basic needs. It’s about supporting their health, happiness, and lifelong bond with you. That’s why we’ve brought together a trusted network of services under one umbrella. Our family includes Paws Plus Veterinary Clinic (compassionate, affordable veterinary care), Until Such Time Sanctuary (dedicated to saving and rehabilitating dogs in need), and Das Hund Haus (boarding, daycare, grooming, and professional training services). Beyond our own programs, we proudly partner with carefully chosen local businesses like pet massage and mobile fitness so you’ll always have access to the very best for your pets. Through our own services and our network of carefully selected partners, we make it easy to connect you with reliable, compassionate care for every stage of your pet’s life.

We have trained 2 dogs through Das Hund Haus and both times were positive experiences. Scarlett just finished Manners 101 with Zach and we couldn’t be happier with the results.

A dog is a long commitment, invest in training and you’ll both be happier.🐾

I’m glad I found this place! Everyone is kind, a very nice atmosphere and I would definitely be bringing my babies here again. Also, it’s more affordable than my local vet. I have to drive 48 minutes, but it’s totally worth it. Thank you again!

Until Such Time, Inc. is an asset to the Polk County community. I’ve seen so many dogs have success stories and find a safe haven through UST. The staff is informed, caring, and patient. The property is amazing and all the dogs I’ve seen are well taken care of.
