Neighborhood Pets Outreach and Resource Center

We help families keep and care for their pets.

Lack of access to affordable pet care resources is a social justice issue. We believe all pet owners, regardless of income level, should have access to affordable resources in order to care for and keep their pet(s).

Accessible, low-cost resources and preventative care.

Over 85% of our clients view cost as their number one barrier to accessing care for their pets, and they say that without our free and low-cost services they would find it challenging to get the care their pets need. We are able to do what we do thanks to generous donors.

Your donations help us provide:

Affordable Pet Supplies
Pet Food Pantry
Low-cost Flea Prevention and Dewormer
Low-cost vaccine clinics

Pet ID Tags, Collars, and Leashes
Low-cost Spay/Neuter for Qualifying Pets
Assistance Funding for Emergency Medical Cases
And Much More #TakeCareOfEachOther

Make a Donation.

We keep people and their pets together. Recognizing the many benefits of the human animal bond, Neighborhood Pets supports people with financial needs by helping them keep their pets in their homes. We do this by providing access to affordable pet care, resources, information and other supportive services. Our welcoming environment is designed to foster trust and create long lasting relationships as we build community.

Stuff the Pod: St. Patrick's Edition!

Help us stuff the pod! We store bags of dry pet food for our Pet Food Bank behind our Resource Center in a storage pod, and we need your help to stuff it full of food!

Drop off donations will be accepted 9 am to 5 pm, March 12-14, 2026.

Bring donations to the parking lot off Sebert Ave directly behind the Neighborhood Pets building.

Donate any brand of dry dog or cat food. If you can't drop off donations in person, shop our wishlists online and food will deliver directly to us.

Since 2016, we've distributed over 190,000 pounds of pet food from our Pet Food Bank. Our clients rely on this service to help supplement their pet food supply, and every donation makes a difference.
