Most people love their pets regardless of socioeconomic status or variations in culture

Serving the systemically poor who (along with their pets) have historically suffered in silence. Typically, their pets have never seen a vet or received basic vet care.
Striving to increase pet retention, reduce animal suffering & increase spay/neuter in underserved areas of our city
Reaching people/pets in the most marginalized areas of Louisville who do not have access to vet care & who do not have the means to pay traditional veterinary fees
Meeting people where they are in their own neighborhoods creating a ripple effect of positive change in the community for long-term impact
2025 Pets4Life Louisville News
🐾 Pet Wellness Where It’s Needed Most
In 2025, Pets4Life Louisville will continue to provide vet wellness clinics and vaccine clinics in underserved areas where veterinary resources are scarce. Our main service locations will include Portland and Chickasaw, with plans to expand into additional neighborhoods throughout Louisville. These efforts would not be possible without the support of partners such as The Table, Central High School, Caris College and Olmsted Parks Conservancy . By offering convenient access to preventative care, we’re helping pet families keep their beloved animals healthy and protected while reducing the risk of illness and disease in our community.
🏠 Strengthening Neighborhoods: The Petsmart Incubator Grant
Thanks to the Petsmart Incubator Grant, Pets4Life Louisville will focus on three key hubs: the California Community Center, the Park Hill Area, and The Lord’s Kitchen. Through monthly Pet Resource Days and targeted outreach, these locations will provide pet families with essential supplies, vaccinations, preventative care, and connect to spay/neuter services. Our efforts are made possible through partnerships with organizations like Louisville Parks & Recreation, Spay Anyway, SnipNSave, My Dog Eats First, Metro Animal Services, Kentucky Humane Society (KHS), and more. Together, we’re building a network of support to ensure that pets and their families have the resources they need to stay together, healthy, and thriving.
📞 Connecting People to Resources: The PetCare Hub
We’re excited to launch our PetCare Hub, a virtual customer service center designed to provide pet families with information, resources, and personalized support. This hub will help us connect families to the services they need, address barriers like transportation, and offer one-on-one assistance for pet-related concerns. By streamlining access to care and resources, we’re taking another big step toward ensuring every family can give their pet a lifetime of love.
