The Animal Rehoming Service Inc. (TARS) is a Melbourne based registered charity which has found loving, permanent homes for over 1000 animals of every description, since it was established in 2000 by Michaela Newell.

OUR CHARTER IS:

To act as a contact and liaison point between people who want to rehome their animals and people who wish to adopt them.
To facilitate the provision of care and accommodation to genuinely homeless animals, by providing enriching foster homes, when available, whilst finding them suitable permanent homes.
To provide veterinary care for homeless animals, if required, prior to placement in a suitable permanent home. All animals are desexed prior to rehoming, to curb the exponential growth of unwanted animals in Victoria. When necessary, smaller vet expenses such as desexing and vaccinations are covered by the new owner, but larger vet fees are paid for via fundraising.
To provide ongoing support and advice to those adopting, for the life of their new pet.
