You Matter Pet Support

Over 70% of U.S. households include a pet, and research consistently shows that pets reduce anxiety, increase emotional stability, and provide a critical sense of belonging—especially during hardship. Yet during financial strain, pet care is often the first expense families feel pressured to cut.

You Matter Pet Support helps keep families and their pets together by supplying pet food, basic hygiene items, and essential supplies. We believe no one should have to choose between taking care of themselves and taking care of a beloved companion. By ensuring pets remain cared for, we help preserve the emotional support and stability they bring to their families.

• Pet food and essential supplies for families in crisis
   
• Support for individuals experiencing homelessness with pets
   
• Emergency care items (leashes, bowls, bedding, hygiene needs)
   
• Partnerships with local rescues and shelters
