At CPiC we recognize the unique bond between homeless individuals and their pets, and we work tirelessly to ensure no pet is left behind in times of crisis.

• We assist in eliminating barriers for veterans and unhoused individuals accessing shelters with their pets.

• We offer resources, support, and advocacy to ensure pets and their owners stay together during the transition to safe, stable housing.

• As a volunteer-run, donation-driven organization, we provide vital assistance to individuals and families in Maricopa County facing sudden displacement or homelessness.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                         

• Our outreach is about far more than just handing out pet food and supplies. It’s about building trust, showing compassion, and listening to stories that often go unheard. 

• Every conversation is a chance to remind someone that they matter — that help exists, and they are not alone. 

• Many of the individuals we meet share that they would leave the streets if they could take their pets with them. What they don’t realize is: they have options. Many shelters now welcome pets — and we’re here to help bridge that gap.

• When someone is ready, we’re ready too.  We connect them with services like Phoenix Rescue Mission, who can help them begin rebuilding their lives — starting with a birth certificate, state ID, or driver’s license. They can also provide transportation and shelter. And most importantly, we help them keep their beloved pets by their side through it all. 

• This is how lives are changed.                                                                                              One act of kindness.  One conversation.  One person and Pet at a time. 

• Together, we’re not just helping — we’re giving people the tools to start over. 🐾❤️
