Through this program, both people and their pets learn and grow together, enhancing the well-being of our community.Pet GroomingOur pet grooming program supports individuals experiencing homelessness by ensuring their pets are clean, free of fleas, healthy, and well-groomed. This service helps prevent medical issues in pets while also providing a safe and caring environment for their owners. By taking care of their pets, we build trust and foster positive connections, aiding their reintegration into society.
