We’re Scam Free – And Planning to Stay That Way!

Scams involving the sale of puppies and kittens are a real concern or the users of many websites and online pet classifieds, but you WON’T find them here. Not a single one. We may be one of the only scam-free pet adoption websites in existence, and that is something about which we are very proud.

Our pet owners need to be able to place their faith and trust in our pet rehoming team – and so do you. We have heard horror stories about pet lovers being scammed by fake “puppy breeders”, often through Facebook, and the heartache and disappointment they have been through.

Quite often our adopters are seniors, who really need and appreciate the companionship. and closeness that a pet can provide. With quite a few shelters and rescues not allowing people over a certain age to adopt, seniors are uniquely vulnerable to falling victim to heartless scam artists on social media and other pet adoption websites.

We feel that Seniors can often provide the perfect home environment for many pets, and we also feel that it is our duty to help seniors find the perfect pet for them, and to help them avoid the dangers that can come with of adopting online.

Reasons Why Placing a Pet for Adoption Can Be Necessary

Pet owners can find themselves needing to rehome a cherished pet for a variety of valid reasons, and it is no reflection on the owner – or the pet – that rehoming is sometimes necessary.

Life is full of surprises. The proverbial rug can be pulled out from under your feet when you least expect – or are prepared for it.

We often hear about pet owners dealing with a terminal illness or sudden death, spousal abuse, a financial crisis (even homelessness), severe pet allergies, or a pet being very anxious around a new baby or toddler. (and those are just some of the situations that make rehoming unavoidable).

Finding a safe, peaceful, happy, and loving new home is the BEST solution. It gives the pet a second chance at a wonderful life, it gives the pet’s owner peace of mind, and it gives you, the adopter,  so much love, laughter, joy and companionship with your new family member.

Our Mandate: Helping You Choose the Right New Pet

Our Rehoming Team works very hard to make sure that each “adoption story page” tells the pet’s story honestly, focusing on the traits that make each pet so special.

At the same time, we reveal anything that you need to know about the pet, so that you can make an educated decision about whether a pet might be a good match for your situation. Pet adoption is best without surprises!

By adopting a pet through Pet Rehoming Network, you will have the opportunity to meet the owner (and the pet), and learn all about your prospective new pet. There is no pressure – adopting a pet is a very important decision which should only be made with confidence and commitment.
