Free help finding care and support for your pet

A free funding plan for your pet

When a vet bill is bigger than you can cover, there’s rarely one answer. Most families cover it from several directions at once. Tell us about your pet, and we’ll help you put the pieces together. It’s free.

What goes into your plan

  • Assistance programs and grants. We look for programs you may qualify for, based on your pet’s condition, where you live and your situation, and tell you what each one asks for. Many pay your vet directly, and none of it depends on how many people you know.
  • Payment options. Questions to ask your vet about payment plans, financing, or doing treatment in stages, including VetBilling, a payment plan your vet’s practice can offer.
  • Your GoFundMe. Already have one? Keep it. If you haven’t started, our free guide helps you tell the story and set a realistic goal.
  • Team shirts for your pet. Some of the people who care about you won’t click Donate, but they’d gladly wear their support, the way people do for a charity walk. We design shirts and more with your pet on them, then print and ship every order. You choose prices with us and confirm your earnings before anything launches.

All of it on one page. Your pet gets a free page that shows the whole effort: the story, your donation link, the shirts, and one running total across every source.

Bill $6,000 · GoFundMe $2,100 · Grant $500 · Shirts $340 · Still needed $3,060

An example. GoFundMe only shows its own donations, so supporters rarely see everything you’re doing. We update your total whenever you send us news.

Extra help, when it fits

  • Medication savings. If your pet takes ongoing medicine, we look for lower prices you can ask your vet about.
  • Help with applications. What each program needs, which ones you’ve applied to, and when to follow up or reapply.
  • A printable flyer with a QR code to your pet’s page, for work, church or a community board.
  • If you’ve lost your pet, a memorial page and keepsakes, with help toward aftercare costs.

Programs have eligibility rules, limited funds and waitlists, and we can’t promise any of them will help. Fundraising takes time. If your pet needs care right now, call your vet first, or find emergency care.

A few details are enough to start. We’ll email you, usually within a few days. Nothing about your pet is published unless you approve it.
