In-Store Adoption Program

PetSmart Charities partners with more than 3,400 animal welfare agencies in the U.S. and Canada to help the agencies find lifelong, loving homes for their pets through adoptions.  PetSmart Charities’ adoption partners receive many benefits:

• Animal welfare agencies receive free adoption space at their local PetSmart Charities Adoption Center located inside each PetSmart store.  Adoption partners can bring available pets up to seven days a week to facilitate adoptions.

• PetSmart Charities provides up to $15 in adoption rewards funding for every pet adopted through the PetSmart Charities adoption center.

• Adoption partners also participate in our twice-annual National Pet Adoption Weekend events held in the spring and fall.  During these events, the agencies receive $15 in adoption rewards funding for each animal they adopt out and the benefit of free marketing and promotion from PetSmart Charities and PetSmart.

• Adoption partners receive additional funding from the PetSmart Charities’ annual Wish Tree and Santa Claws ® photos campaigns.  These funds are raised in store through PetSmart customer donations and are allocated equally amongst each store’s adoption partners at the end of the campaign.

By providing space to adoption partners in the PetSmart Charities Adoption Center, homeless pets are given another location and additional opportunity for exposure to the pet-loving public, and the extra time they need to find lifelong, loving homes. Over the past 13 years, our Adoption Centers have completed more than 3.4 million adoptions --and today a life is saved every minute they are open!!
