Help Mochi Get The Surgery He needs
When Mochi arrived at Pets In Need, we were told he had been struggling for a long time. Since coming into our care, Mochi has made incredible progress. His skin irritation and ear infections are healing. But one thing still stands in the way of his full recovery. Will you donate today and ensure that Mochi gets the future he deserves?

Affordable Care for Your Pets
Pets In Need offers affordable clinic options to keep your pets healthy. Our Community Veterinary Clinic provides affordable, high-quality preventative care, including wellness exams, vaccinations, flea and tick prevention, microchipping, deworming, basic diagnostic testing, and pet health advice.

What we do
As a 501(c) 3 non-profit animal shelter, we transfer in dogs and cats from public shelters where they are in danger of being euthanized due to space or financial limitations. We then provide them with the best possible care and enrichment until we can help them find their forever homes.
Get Involved
As a non-profit organization, everything we do is made possible through donations of funds, supplies, and time from members of the community. There are many ways to support Pets In Need, including fostering, volunteering and donating cash or in-kind gifts that help us carry out our life-saving mission.
Volunteer your time
We are constantly in search of animal lovers to join our volunteer team and help socialize, exercise, and train our dogs and cats.
Make a Donation
Gifts from the general public are our lifeblood. They allow us to provide our animals with essential care. We are totally supported by private gifts, adoption, and program fees.
