These shelters are equipped to accept families of domestic violence along with their pets. There is no guarantee that a shelter can help, so please check with each shelter regarding what pets are welcome and availability. Some shelters may also take out-of-state residents.
Because SAF-T understands the concern about confidentiality of shelter locations, the shelters listed here have been contacted and given consent to be listed on this website. If you do not see a shelter listed in your area, please contact your local shelter as they may be able to help you with your pet.
If you cannot locate a shelter to help from this list below, please check out A Safe Place for Pets.
