Houston-grown, we’re here to help our neighbors care for the pets they love.
In 2012, we were thrilled to move into our very own shelter in the Heights. We had carefully planned the space with animal comfort in mind. The generous natural light and modern layout create an inviting place for adopters and volunteers. Hope you stop by to visit!







We’d love to connect!
