Our programs

Pet Food Bank & Harley’s Hamper Program

Harley’s Legacy: Named after our beloved weimaraner, Harley, this program ensures pets always have a full belly in his memory. Founded by Harley’s parents, Parachutes for Pets supports those in need with pet food access. Additionally, we supply monthly pet food and supplies to local organizations, spreading love to Mamas 4 Mamas, Good Neighbour Market, Veteran’s Food Bank, Horizon Housing, and Seniors Resource Society during the holidays.”

Vaccine & Wellness Clinics

Experience peace of mind with our year-round Preventative Vet Care Days, offering essential services like vaccines, wellness exams, and spay/neuters. For emergency vet care, connect with your veterinarian or explore options such as Tails of Help or Pet Card Financing.

At this time, Vet Care is reserved for canine spay and neuters.

Grooming Assistance

Prioritizing the well-being of both animals and their human companions, proper grooming is essential. At Parachutes for Pets, we provide year-round grooming appointments and special grooming days.

If your pet is facing discomfort or medical issues due to challenges in accessing grooming, we’re here to help. Take a moment to complete the form above, and let us support your pet’s comfort and health through our grooming services.

Emergency Pet Packs

Parachutes for Pets offers an emergency pet pack for individuals and families experiencing homelessness or who are escaping domestic or family violence. Pet packs contain essential pet supplies, such as food, treats, a blanket, water, bowls, boots, a jacket/cooling wrap, depending on weather, and a first aid kit.

Requests for this program come from community partners, such as the Calgary Police Service, local shelters, and Street Outreach Teams. These are urgent situations that require urgent response times from our volunteers – sometimes day or night.

Please note: We don’t facilitate new pet adoptions. While we offer advice on preparing for a new pet, owners are responsible for expenses like vaccines, spaying/neutering, pet food, vet care, microchipping, and annual check-ups. Be prepared for these costs as a pet owner.
