If you and your pet struggle with the hard balls life sometimes throws at you, know you have options. Whether you need food or supplies for your furry friend, assistance with vet bills, or other pet-related challenges, we’ve compiled some resources that may be helpful.
For additional questions, please call or text our helpline at (702) 496-0705 or email helpline@heartsalivevillage.org

If you are faced with extraordinary veterinary bills for your pet, don’t despair! The following organizations may be able to help. Please read their information carefully, as each group has its own guidelines and requirements.
Heartbreaking as it is, sometimes we just can’t keep our pets. If you find yourself in that situation, and you are on social media, post your pet’s photo and story. Then ask your friends to share it on their social streams.
One of the best resources we’ve found to help you safely rehome your pet is Adoptapet.com. Visit rehome.adoptapet.com to set up your pet’s profile. It will be posted on their website where it will be seen by millions of visitors each month.
We are not an open intake facility and must consider many factors before intaking any animals including space and medical care.
You are welcomed to send a request to intake an animal to info@heartsalivevillage.org with the below information for each pet. Please note that this is not a guarantee of acceptance and we cannot accept walk-in/drop-offs at any location.
1) Pet’s name
2) Age
3) Spay/Neuter status
4) Vaccine and/or additional medical history
5) Behavior/Personality
6) Reason for surrender
7) Date pet needs to be surrendered by
8) Photos of the pet
Once your request is received, our intake team will reach out to you and if accepted, we will make arrangements for next steps.
We understand rehoming your pet(s) is a difficult decision that unfortunately we wish we never had to make. We want to be able to provide you with a list of resources that you can use to rehome your pet to a safe environment responsibly and to avoid an unnecessary shelter impound. Please take your time to review the following organizations provided to you. Each organization has different qualifications/procedures, please contact them individually for more information.
