For Animal Welfare Organizations
PetSmart Charities® partners with and supports thousands of animal-welfare agencies across North America. Working together, we are making a difference for pets in need.
We support programs that help fight homeless pet overpopulation and improve the quality of life of pets through adoptions, spay/neuter and emergency relief. Since 1994, PetSmart Charities has worked hand in hand with dedicated partners like you.
Because of these valuable partnerships, together we are able to do more than any of us could ever do alone.
