About CritterHelp

The first national platform connecting people with wildlife emergencies to qualified professionals

Our Mission

Every year, millions of people encounter injured, orphaned, or displaced wildlife and don't know where to turn. Meanwhile, licensed wildlife rehabilitators are overwhelmed with intake management, volunteer coordination, and paperwork.

We built CritterHelp to bridge that gap — connecting the public with licensed professionals while giving rehabilitators powerful tools to manage their practice. Our goal is to ensure every injured or orphaned animal gets the fastest possible path to professional care.

Where We Get Our Data

CritterHelp gathers data from state and federal wildlife rehabilitation licensee lists, which are updated regularly. We also allow rehabilitators and control operators to claim and update their own listings.

We maintain additional information including species served, hours of operation, preferred contact methods, service radius, and more — ensuring that wildlife emergencies and conflicts are resolved as quickly and effectively as possible.
