Arizona Pet Pantry
Welcome to Arizona Pet Pantry
Arizona Pet Pantry’s objective is to prevent seniors from reaching that devastating, agonizing place where they cannot afford or don’t understand other options to care for their pets. Most of the time seniors have no options, but to relinquish them to a shelter. Understandably, seniors are often reluctant to give up their companion animals-not only due to emotional bonds, but also because of the fear that their pets are unlikely to be adopted due to age and/or health issues and concerns that their pets may not integrate well with the people and other animals in a new home.
Arizona Pet Pantry’s goal is to keep pets in their loving homes by providing a bridge to assistance through community resources.

Our Mission
Arizona Pet Pantry’s mission is to help seniors keep their pets at home and to assist our seniors with spaying and neutering of feral cats.
Arizona Pet Pantry Programs
Programs for Seniors
Arizona Pet Pantry works with seniors, to provide food for pets on a short-term basis. If it is determined that there are additional needs for your pet(s), we will refer you to other organizations or agencies for further assistance.
To get started, please fill out the attached application and a representative from Arizona Pet Pantry will contact you within 72 hours. At that time, we will set up a home visit during which we will discuss all of your needs and see how we can help. Proof of spaying and neutering and current vaccinations will be required. If this is not the case, we will refer you to organizations that can assist with this.
Programs with our local Agencies
Arizona Pet Pantry is partnering with other local agencies and organizations that have the ability to mentor, counsel and assist people in their time of need. Our goal is to be an important resource for seniors helping them to keep their pet(s) in their home.
