Here's How We Help:

Pet-food assistance
Our "meals to pets" program provides assistance to Meals-on-Wheels recipients and homebound Vermonters in our service area with the care and feeding of their companion animals.

Contact us if feeding your pet has become a hardship.

Pet adoption guidance
Through partnerships with local shelters and veterinarians the program supports seniors who dream of adopting a companion animal.

Contact us if you dream of bringing a pet into your life.

Emergency planning and assistance with care

The program works to support pet owners in-need to identify the resources available to them, and to facilitate the advanced planning needed to insure that their pets will be cared when they are not able to.
