About StGAR
More than four decades of trusted service.
St George Animal Rescue was established in 1980 as an animal transport specialist. In 1983, the business expanded into the seizure and impounding of non-indigenous animals in partnership with local councils.
Since 1 July 1998, StGAR has also played a key role in the recovery and reunification of companion animals, helping councils protect public safety while supporting responsible animal welfare outcomes.
Today, StGAR provides continuous animal management coverage through a practical, experienced team led by its Managing Director and Head Animal Management Officer.
