Shelter Hope Pet Shop

Shelter Hope Pet Shop

Dedicated to Connecting
Pets and People!

Shelter Hope Pet Shop was created to aid shelter pet adoptions, promote education and bring awareness to the communities we serve. We are the first and only volunteer humane pet shop partnering with companies, such as NewMark Merrill, who donate store front space in busy shopping locations in order to assist us with community outreach and shelter pet adoptions. Shelter Hope Pet Shop is a unique, large scale business model, which aims to eliminate puppy mill pet shops in our malls across the nation.

Shelter Hope Pet Shop provides a fun, friendly place where visitors and volunteers can meet and interact with animals needing adoption. You can also visit Shelter Hope Pet Shop for pet merchandise and know your dollars are going directly back to help save the lives of homeless pets.

We are a non-profit
volunteer-based pet shop
that showcases shelter animals
available for in-store adoption.

Passion

Kim Sill the founder of Shelter Hope is passionate about stopping the mass produced puppies created for profit by breeders and puppymills.

After years of working with LCA and Cesar Millan-Shelter Hope became the model for many humane shops to follow.

Finding love
can be easier
than you ever
thought it was...

Covid 19 has changed the way
we show our animals.
