How does the Pet Food Pantry operate?
Pet parents will drive into the parking lot and be directed forward to the ‘Check In’ tent.
At this tent, a volunteer will ask you for your name, zip code, and how many dogs and cats you own. From this tent, you will then be directed to pull forward to the ‘Pick Up’ tent where our volunteers will roll your bagged pet food forward to you on a cart for you to retrieve through your window, and then you will be directed to exit the parking lot.
Pet parents must stay in their cars and wear a mask while driving through our Pet Food Pantry.
I also need assistance obtaining veterinary care for my pet, what should I do?
