How RescueConsole Works
RescueConsole is organized into eight workspaces — Animals, People, Organizations, Fundraising, Shifts, Events, Communications, and the Public Registry. Every workspace shares the same underlying records, so an adoption application automatically links to the adopter’s person record, a vet visit appears on the animal’s medical history, and a donor’s gift history lives right alongside their volunteer hours.1
Sign up and import your data
Create your account at rescueconsole.com/signup. Your first full year is free — the whole product, not a limited trial. Import your existing animals, people, and donations from a spreadsheet on day one.
2
Configure your settings
Set up your animal statuses, custom fields, and intake workflows to match how your rescue already operates. Build the forms your adopters, fosters, and volunteers fill in.
3
Invite your team
Add staff and coordinators with the right roles and permissions. Volunteers can sign themselves up without staff accounts.
4
Publish your public website
Turn on your public-facing adoption site with your own domain, logo, and accent color. Adoptable animals and events appear the moment you mark them public.
