The reason we exist
Pets and Pals is an animal shelter that was founded in 2013. We are a 501(c)(3) Non-profit organization committed to providing a safe haven for abandoned animals and giving them the love and care they deserve. We believe that all animals deserve a chance at life, no matter their circumstance or age, which is why we provide medical care, adoption services, and humane education for humans so that we can live together peacefully. Our goal is to give every animal the best chance of being adopted into a loving family home by investing time with each animal to make sure they are ready for adoption before going into the general population of our shelter. To accomplish this goal, we work hard every day to ensure their needs are met so they can become healthy enough to be adopted out.

Our Mission
At Pets and Pals, we strive to provide a safe place for animals to find loving homes. We are a nonprofit animal shelter that provides stray cats and dogs with food, shelter, and medical care. We also offer low cost spaying and neutering services for pets of low income families.
We rely on donations from the community as well as adoption fees to fund our shelter. To date, we have rescued over 8,000 cats and dogs from the streets of San Jose.
We hope you’ll consider adopting your next pet from us! The first thing people often ask when they come into Pets and Pals is What’s your favorite animal? Our answer is always Who doesn’t love them all?! After all, pets are one of life’s greatest joys. That being said, if you’re looking for an enthusiastic cuddle buddy or a furry friend to greet you at the door every day- we have just the pet for you! Stop by Pets and Pals soon; there’s no better feeling than finding your new best friend here at Pets and Pals.
Our Vision
At Pets and Pals Animal Shelter, we are dedicated to the love of animals. We understand that when families find themselves in a situation where they have to part with their pets, it is heartbreaking for everyone involved. We offer a safe haven for these furry friends by providing them with food, shelter, vet care and unconditional love. Our goal is to provide an animal shelter where people can come to adopt animals of all shapes and sizes.
We believe that no animal should be put on death row or euthanized just because they don’t have a home or family.
Our Values
We love animals and we are committed to giving all of our pets the best possible care. But it’s not just about the animals, it’s about their human families too. We want to make sure that pet owners have the best resources available to them to keep their pets healthy and happy for years to come. That’s why Pets and Pals is committed to educating pet owners on current animal issues, providing low-cost spay/neuter services, promoting responsible pet ownership through adoption events and more. Continuation (six+ sentences using the words: pals): Every day, pets become someone’s furry companion or loyal family member. Pets and Pals understands how important it is to find these pets homes where they can live happily ever after with a new set of friends and family members.
