Pet Program

At Community Builders, we recognize that pets are family. The Pet Program was created to support both pet owners and their beloved animals living in our housing sites. Whether it’s a bag of food, a sturdy leash or access to behavioural training, the program ensures residents have what they need to care for their pets and keep them healthy and safe.

What the Pet Program provides:

• Extra pet food, litter and other essentials like toys and treats

• Pet equipment such as kennels, leashes and litter boxes

• Subsidized dog training classes through our partnership with The Pack Dog Training

• Short-term foster and permanent adoption options for pets when residents are unable to continue providing care

Sometimes, due to circumstances like hospitalization or incarceration, a resident may be temporarily or permanently separated from their pet. In these cases, the Pet Program steps in to ensure the animal continues to receive the love and care it deserves, whether through adoption or other in-house supports.

The Pet Program is one more way we’re working to build inclusive, compassionate communities where people and their pets can thrive together.
