Rising rent and the cost of living force too many families to give up pets they love. Before you surrender your pet, help may be available: free pet food, low-cost vet care and spay/neuter, temporary foster care, and rentals with low or no pet fees.
Please note: programs, eligibility, hours and availability change often. Contact each organization directly to confirm before you go. PetFriendlyPad isn't affiliated with these organizations, and listing them isn't an endorsement. If you know a program we should add, email [email protected].
Use the Low or no pet fees filter on any city page, and look for the 💚 Fee-Friendly Landlord badge.
Help a new landlord say yes to your pet.
Find a plan that fits your budget and get quotes, so a surprise vet bill doesn't force a hard choice.
Assistance animals aren't pets, and pet fees generally don't apply to them.
