What We Do

Compassion, backed by tireless on-ground work

From midnight emergency rescues to lifelong sanctuary care — here's how we show up for the voiceless, every single day.

Distress Response

We respond to public distress calls and act swiftly to reach animals that are injured, sick, or in immediate danger — anywhere in the twin cities.

Rescue Ambulance

Our specially designed rescue van, staffed by trained "Rescue Rangers," runs day and night and can carry up to three rescues at a time.

Shelter & Foster

Our emergency rescue shelter houses 150+ animals at a time, while our foster network gives recovering animals the warmth of a home.

Community Feeding

Volunteer feeders and trained paravets run regular feeding drives, caring for community strays — a commitment that began during COVID-19 and never stopped.

Spay & Neuter Drives

Regular sterilization drives across localities humanely control the stray population — one sterilization at a time.

Vaccination Camps

Preventive healthcare through vaccination drives keeps community animals — and the community itself — healthier and safer.

Community Education

Educating communities about coexistence, animal behavior, and responsible pet ownership to build a more compassionate society.

Spreading Awareness

Raising voices against animal cruelty and advocating for animal rights through awareness campaigns and social media outreach.

Life at the Sanctuary

Where "unadoptable" just means extra loved

Blind & Boopable 👃

Our blind residents navigate the world by scent, sound and touch — and they never miss a boop. They live full, joyful lives with round-the-clock care.

Paralyzed and injured pups get custom wheelchairs and daily physio — then it's zoomies as usual. Nothing slows down a happy tail.

The Hope of the Voiceless

Stories of second chances

In every wagging tail, soft purr and curious glance, there's a story of resilience, hope and unconditional love.

Hope

Left blind and deaf after a devastating accident, Hope learned to feel the world through vibrations, touch and smell. She spends her days working through a lickie mat and lounging in the sun.

A symbol of resilience
Tiger the cat

Tiger

Once the alpha cat of his territory, Tiger lost both front limbs and an ear to a reckless driver. With incredible resilience, he rules the shelter today — on his own terms.

Still the boss

Tangdi

Run over by a train at 6 months old near Secunderabad station, Tangdi survived weeks on the tracks. After four months of recovery, she's now a permanent (and pampered) shelter resident.

Braver than most

Sunny

Found abandoned and malnourished on a highway, Sunny was terrified of people. Today, he's the first one to greet our volunteers and spends his afternoons splashing in the sanctuary pool.

Foster with us

Recovering animals heal faster in homes than in shelters. Give a rescue a soft bed and a safe space while they get ready for their forever family.

Deven & Sonam — where it all began 💛

Our Story

It started with one act of kindness in 2012

Founded by Deven Baheti and Sonam Singh Baheti, Deven's Hope Society grew from a personal mission into a full sanctuary — a registered non-profit dedicated to animal welfare and the enforcement of animal rights laws in India.
