Pet Rehoming Network specializes in private home-to-home adoption. Pets rehomed through Pet Rehoming Network stay with their owners until the right new home is found.
Owners can share routines, personality, training, known health information, likes and dislikes, behavior around children or other pets, and the kind of home they believe will suit their companion.
Qualified prospective adopters can meet the pet and owner, ask questions and spend time together before deciding whether the match feels right.
A direct transition can also make it easier to transfer familiar food, medications, veterinary information, beds, crates, carriers, toys or other belongings when those items are included with an individual adoption.
Start with the individual animal rather than the photograph or breed label alone. A successful match depends on temperament, age, health, energy level, training, household routine and known compatibility with children or other pets.
Think realistically about time at home, exercise, grooming, training and how long the pet may need to be alone.
Consider children, existing pets, visitors, housing rules, stairs, available space and everyone’s ability to handle the animal safely.
Read the full profile and ask the current owner specific questions about personality, habits, care, behavior and known health needs.
The right dog or cat may simply not be listed yet. New adoption profiles are added as owners request rehoming help. Join the waiting list and tell Pet Rehoming Network what type of pet, breed, size or location you are hoping to find.
