A Bold Mission, A Compassionate Future
Most importantly, 100% of the proceeds from product sales and training services go directly toward funding a bold, compassion-driven mission: the creation of the BestPetStayEVER™ Resort, a first-of-its-kind pet crisis center and transitional sanctuary that will house pets whose families are experiencing temporary homelessness. The resort will offer up to 90 days of safe, loving care for these pets—giving their human families the time and dignity they need to secure stable housing and reunite with their beloved companions.
