PetSmart Charities

For many older adults, pets offer unmatched social connections, joy, physical activity, and emotional comfort. 🐾

The special friendships between seniors and their pets improve their health and happiness, making each day brighter. In partnership with Meals on Wheels America, we help support these life-changing connections.

This September, you can help support our aging neighbors and their pets. For every donation made on petsmartcharities.org this month, our generous partner, Alphia, will match each donation up to $40,000! 🐱🐶

We’ve joined forces with Feeding America to help end pet hunger. Their nationwide network of food banks plays a crucial role in delivering pet food alongside human food to families facing hunger.

Together, we help both pets and their people receive nutritious meals to thrive. 🐾❤️

30 million pets in the U.S. face hunger. This staggering number highlights a critical issue: when families face food insecurity, so do their pets. Throughout September, we are focused on this problem and helping pets receive the food they need for a healthy life.

As the second annual Pet Hunger Awareness Day approaches on September 24, let's work together. Whether it's spreading the word or making a donation, your involvement can make a world of difference.

For every donation made online to petsmartcharities.org this month, Alphia, the manufacturer of our donated pet food, will match it up to $40,000! Your contributions can help shape brighter futures for pets and people. 💙

When David struggled to pay his bills and provide for his medical alert dog, Rebel, Meals on Wheels America made a world of difference, delivering the 13 millionth pet meal! ⭐️

"He helps me more than people will ever know," David reflects, highlighting the impact Rebel has on his life.

Thanks to our partnership with Meals on Wheels America, local programs and volunteers across the country are able to provide meals to seniors' pets. This partnership not only supports their physical well-being but also fosters the deep bonds between seniors and their beloved pets! ❤️

Broley, a 9-year-old bundle of joy, arrived to The Jacksonville Humane Society in October 2023. Despite his endearing nature and love for children, Broley was overlooked due to his age. While recovering from surgery at JHS, a compassionate family eagerly awaited his recovery and brought him home. Now, Broley enjoys his days being spoiled and loved by his new family! 🐶

With almost 11 million adoptions to date, we are proud to work with partners like JHS to help connect pets with people. Together, we help pets just like Broley find loving homes they deserve. 💙

Sky's the limit when it comes to finding love! Sky, a 1-year-old lab mix, spent 4 months at the Humane Society of Missouri before transitioning to a foster home, where she gained confidence and readiness for adoption. After 210 days at HSMO, Sky was adopted by a loving family! 🌤️

Fostering is an important step for a pet's well-being, and we are proud to collaborate with partners like HSMO who care deeply for pets and help them find loving families. 💙

Consider fostering at your local shelters and rescues to make a meaningful difference in a pet's life!

Mara, a sweet French bulldog, visited Seattle Veterinary Outreach El Centro Clinic with her owner, Claudia. The clinic's team, including a Spanish-speaking volunteer, Devon, and Dr. Meghan, diagnosed Mara with a chicken allergy. She left with medication and chicken-free food from El Centro's Pet Food Bank.

Access to veterinary care is crucial for pet owners. By partnering with Seattle Veterinary Outreach, we help more pets and their families receive the necessary care and resources. These collaborations are vital in strengthening communities and enhancing the well-being of pets and their owners.

With 2,500 adoption partners across North America, we've helped almost 11 million pets find loving families since 1994! Partnerships with organizations like Puppy Luv Animal Rescue enable us to support local communities and enhance the adoption process. Our in-store adoptions make it easy for families to welcome a pet into their lives. 🐾🐶

Together, we can continue to positively impact the lives of pets and their families. Find a PetSmart near you to adopt: https://bit.ly/4cWCcWw 🔗

This past National Adoption Week, our team members, Christina and Heidi, took Abi & Buddy—who had the longest stays at Miami-Dade Animal Services (over one year each 😯)—on an exciting foster adventure! They enjoyed car rides, dining at a dog-friendly restaurant, and even a cozy slumber party.

Buddy adored his belly rubs and zoomies after his bath, while Abi loved every moment, from dinner outings to riding the elevator. ❤️ Now at FurryFriends Adoption Center in Jupiter, FL, they’re receiving support with training from Dogs Playing for Life and are ready for their loving homes!

Pets are cherished family members, so much so that 83% of pet owners would skip their own meals to ensure their pets are fed. At PetSmart Charities, we believe everyone deserves the love of a pet, which is why keeping pets and their people together is crucial. 🫶
