Our Inspiration
We are an emerging nonprofit dedicated to rescuing, rehabilitating, and providing a safe haven for horses and companion animals in need.
Sarah Graham founded Keeper’s Haven Animal Sanctuary (KHAS) in 2022, inspired by her first rescue horse, Keeper, an off-the-track thoroughbred who was underweight and in need of care. Their bond formed through hard work and dedication, which taught Sarah the importance of understanding, listening, and providing for animals in need.
Keeper’s retirement on Sarah’s family farm exemplifies her commitment to lifelong care, contrasting with the unfortunate reality that many horses, after their riding careers end, are sent to auction and often end up in slaughter facilities. KHAS was established to honor Keeper’s legacy and ensure that every animal receives love, dignity, and a safe haven, reinforcing that all animals are “keepers,” deserving of compassionate care in their later years.


Our Mission
Love, Care, And Compassion
Keeper’s Haven Animal Sanctuary provides care, compassion and safe shelter for abused, abandoned and neglected companion animals of all ages. Where helping one animal heal gathers us into community to help us all! KHAS is the forever home to 6 horses, 2 sheep, 2 cows, 2 goats, a potbellied pig, and an abandoned kitten that were in dire need of love, critical care, and understanding. Over the course of three years, we have rehabilitated each sanctuary resident, both physically and emotionally. Every animal in our sanctuary will live the rest of their lives knowing they will be safe, cared for, and loved unconditionally.
At the core of our mission is a deep belief in the power of love, care, and compassion. Animals in need often come from heartbreaking circumstances, but with patience and dedication, they can heal—both physically and emotionally. Animal sanctuaries serve as safe havens where these animals are given a second chance, a chance to regain trust, health, and happiness. They remind us of our shared capacity for kindness and empathy and teach us valuable lessons about responsibility and compassion.
Sanctuaries like ours are vital because animals cannot advocate for themselves. They rely on humans to provide protection, medical care, and love. When animals are neglected or abandoned, sanctuaries become community pillars—restoring hope for animals and inspiring communities to value all living beings. They also serve as educational resources, fostering awareness about animal welfare and encouraging kindness in future generations.
