Our Process

STEP 1

View our available cats and dogs and read each animal’s profile. If they sound like a good fit, submit an application. If you do not have a specific animal in mind, feel free to reach out and we’ll chat with you about your home, lifestyle, and what you’re looking for.

You can also attend a weekend adoption event to meet available pets in person. Please note that not all available pets are present at every event so if you have your eye on someone specific, send us a message.


STEP 2

You can find an Apply for Adoption button on each animal’s individual profile. Click the button to fill out an application for our adoption counselors to review.

We look forward to getting to know you, your family, and any resident pets—and learning what you’re hoping to find in a new companion.


STEP 3

Once your application has been reviewed, we will be in contact about next steps. This can include gathering more information or setting up a meet & greet. Once approved, we’ll set-up a time to finalize the adoption, go over care tips, and cheer you on as you bring your new furry family member home. We’re here to support you on this exciting new chapter!
