Pet Stay

Pet-Owner Shelter Help

Our Mission 

At Pet Stay, we believe that no one should have to surrender their pets in order to find housing. Families facing eviction, homelessness, or displacement deserve stability with their beloved animals by their side. We provide safe, temporary housing where people and pets can stay together while rebuilding their lives.

How it Works

We transform unused spaces into safe, pet-friendly housing for families:

  • Emergency housing (1 night – 1 month): Immediate shelter for families in crisis.

  • Transitional Housing (1 – 3 months) Support for families stabilizing after job loss, eviction, or displacement.

  • Long term Housing (3 – 6 months) Helping families rebuild after disasters, domestic violence, or long term homelessness.

Unlike traditional shelters, pets stay with their families, preventing surrender and keeping households whole.

Future Vision

PetStay is more than temporary housing – it’s the start of stable communities

  • Tiny Home Villages: We plan to acquire land and affordable, pet inclusive tiny home communities.

  • Houston Pilot Program: Families able to relocate to Houston with their pets will have access to our first community model.

  • National Expansion: Over time, PetStay will grow into a network of supportive, sustainable communities where families and pets thrive together.

Programs

  • Renovating abandoned homes, schools, and offices into pet-friendly housing units.

  • Creating tiered housing options based on need and duration of stay.

  • Offering family resources (job support, stability planning) alongside pet care.
