Meet The Team
At Road To Home Rescue we have a dedicated staff of volunteers with a passion to help the animals. Below you will find a few of our many volunteers and a little bit about them.

Elyse Giurco
Founder
I grew up with a deep love of animals, which has shaped my life and work. I started Road to Home Rescue Support in 2013 with one mission: to help the most overlooked animals find their road to home. Seniors, special-needs pets, and medical cases—those often left behind in high-kill shelters or struggling on the streets—are at the heart of my work. Since then, with the support of an incredible team of volunteers, we’ve rescued and rehomed over 1,600 dogs and cats, giving them the second chance they deserve.
Animal rescue has always been my calling, but so has family and business. I own and operate a travel agency that has been part of my family since my high school years. As an adult, I joined my mother in growing the business, and today I’m proud to donate a portion of our earnings to animal rescue.
Over the years, I’ve shared my life with many dogs and cats—rescues, seniors, and special-needs pets alike—and they continue to inspire my work every day.
Every animal deserves love, safety, and a place to call home—and with the help of our volunteers and community, we’re making that vision a reality, one rescue at a time.
