Pet Assist Program

The Pet Assist program helps those in need of a temporary safe place for their pet to live due to a variety of factors that leave them unable to care for their animals and when no other assistance is available. The animals are cared for through foster home placement. Pet assist is a short-term program, but each case is assessed based on the owner’s specific circumstances and resources of the shelter.


Please note: At this time, we can only provide care for up to 30 days and foster placement may take up to two weeks. Response time is currently 48-72 hours. Thank you in advance for your patience. Please call 303.751.5772 with questions.


If you need temporary safe housing for your pet, please complete and submit the application form below.
If you are escaping domestic violence or experiencing short-term hospitalization and need urgent assistance, please contact our team 720.241.7113.
