How can you help?
Go shopping for the animals
Check out our Amazon or Chewy wish list to purchase pet care items we can use and have them shipped directly to Homeward Pet.
Take a look at the Shelter Essentials List or the Clinic Essentials List to shop for the items we use every day in the shelter. Many are available at Costco and other local retailers.
Donate to the Homeward Pet Food Bank
The Homeward Pet Food Bank supports animals in the shelter and in foster homes, and distributes pet food and other new and gently-used supplies to rescue partners, food banks and other community organizations to help families with pets.
Homeward Pet Food Bank donation guidelines
We are able to accept the following items in like-new condition. Please don’t donate things that are worn, broken, rusted or missing pieces and should just be thrown away. Anything we can’t use costs us money to dispose of (and we’d rather have our money go to our animals than another garbage pick-up).

Pet food – Canned
Cat and dog foods, all brands.
Pet food – Dry
Cat and dog foods, all brands. New and open bags are accepted (please label if not in original container).
Cat litter
All types and brands, World’s Best Cat Litter is preferred.
