There are 5 founders of Pet Helpers, Inc since September 24. 2008 we have been helping in adoptions, some spay and neutering. rescues. There was a fire in a retirement home and one of our board members was there and the residents did not have anywhere to take their animals. We pulled together as a group and fostered all the pets until the residents coudl return home. This unit had about 120 retired and disabled residents living there.
All the board members and members have a huge love for animals. Most all of us have rescued pets of our own and know how important it is to express the spay and neutering.
We have a applications filled out from our web site, we have the family come and meet with the animal and someone form Pet Helpers, Inc, we do a reference and Vet check. After they have decided if this is a pet for them we take the pet with us and do a home visit and see how the pets is in their home. If the pet is placed we follow up with them in about 24 hours, 2 weeks and about 1 month. At anytime they can not keep the pet in the contract it is stated they must return it to Pet Helpers, Inc. Right now we are charging between 50-100 dollars for a pet and we also ask the new owners to hwlp out with any Vet bills we have on that animal. We show them invoice for that animal from the Vet.
