Impact & Momentum
BestyBnB creates Crisis Care / Safety Net Pet Programs to help Animal Welfare, Domestic Violence, Mental Health, Veteran Affairs, Houseless Services, and other Social Service Agencies secure safe, temporary homes for Pets during their Owners’ time of crisis.
BestyBnB accounts have been created at 52 Agencies in 19 states.
Our community centric approach helps keep people and pets safe, connected, and together while maintaining the vital Human-Animal Bond.
BestyBnB is a first-of-its-kind solution that:
Provides each Agency Partner with a platform to search and select from a list of loving & vetted pet caregiver households within the community who have signed up to provide long and short-term pet fostering. Some Agencies call BestyBnB a confidential Airbnb for Pets.
Immediately helps millions of pets, abuse survivors, children, mental health patients, veterans, and people experiencing housing insecurity.
Works to end pet homelessness by assisting animal shelters in preventing owner surrender of pets by people in crisis.
Prevents violent & abusive crimes by removing barriers to safety.
Provides Survivors and Veterans with job opportunities as BestyBnB Pet Caregivers.
We also now enjoy growing support and collaboration with:
