Sponsor a Pet

For shelter pets, the most basic things can provide immense comfort – from a comfy bed to a belly full of food. When you sponsor a pet at OHS, you help provide them with food, shelter, and veterinary care and offset the costs of these resources. The journey with your sponsored pet doesn’t stop there. Once they’ve been adopted, we’ll send you an email sharing the good news!

It’s easy to sponsor an animal! You can sponsor any adoptable dog, cat, rabbit, guinea pig, mouse, rat, or bird at our Salem and Portland shelters. To sponsor, simply follow these steps:

1) Visit our Adopt a Pet page.

2) Click on the photo of the animal you’d like to sponsor.

3) Once on the animal’s profile, click the “Click here to sponsor me” link below the pet’s name.

4) Fill out the online donation form to complete your gift.

Help Your Sponsored Pet Find a Loving Home

Sharing your sponsored pet’s story, whether by word of mouth or on social media, is a wonderful way to help them find their new family. When sharing their profile on social media, don’t forget to use #OHSpets!
