17 Years of Helping Pets and People in Crisis
Domestic violence affects both people and their pets and prompts many victims to remain in abusive situations for fear of having nowhere to escape to with their pet. Lost Our Home is committed to changing that uncertainty into assurance through our life-saving partnership with several domestic violence shelters.
Having no one to care for a precious pet when unexpected medical emergencies, surgeries or illness force people and their pets apart, can leave many uncertain of how to not only care for themselves, but for their pet as well. Lost Our Home supports families suffering from these medical emergencies.
Ways you can help.
Your donation allows us to make a life-changing difference for pets and keep families together.
Help us find pets their forever homes!
Pets are family members. That’s what drives our vision. Lost Our Home is dedicated to bridging the care gap between people who find themselves in crisis and the pets who often have no place to go during these challenging circumstances.
We are focused on finding long-term solutions and making long-lasting impact. Our mission is community-focused; our approach, unique. We envision a caring community without barriers or divides between human crisis response and pet crisis response because we recognize that what impacts people directly impacts their pets.
“When we run into situations with pets that need extra TLC, we know the team at Lost Our Home will make sure they get it. We also know they’ll make sure the pets are kept safe while waiting for their owner to return, or that they will be adopted into loving new homes when needed. It’s a win-win for pets and people.”
