What it says it does

We nurture abused, abandoned, and unwanted animals so they can be adopted into safe, loving, and secure homes. When needed, we provide a safe haven where animals that are not adopted can live out their lives safely and peacefully in foster care. At the heart of what we do is our commitment to rescue, foster, and find great homes for animals in need of a second chance.

Governance

This organization files the short tax form, which does not ask about boards, policies or audits. That is normal for a small charity and is not a mark against it.
