Pet Food Bank

No one should have to choose between feeding themselves or their pet. Our Pet Food Bank provides hampers of food and essential supplies to pet owners experiencing financial hardship — helping families stay together through tough times. Support is available for up to two pets per household, with responsible pet ownership encouraged.

Safekeeping

Our safekeeping program provides short-term care for pets while their families face medical emergencies, domestic violence, or housing instability. Pets receive a safe place to stay, daily enrichment, and preventive vet care until they can be reunited with their families.
This program is available by professional referral only.

Grooming Assistance

Our Grooming Assistance program helps pet owners facing financial hardship access full grooming services — including baths, brushing, haircuts, nail trims, and ear cleaning. While we do our best to support every pet, we are unable to provide grooming for animals that are extremely aggressive for the safety of our staff and your pet.
