Focus Population
- Homeless People
Provides free temporary housing and care for animals in emergency situations (e.g. domestic violence, homelessness, and medical issues). If a pet owner is suddenly hospitalized or displaced by a house fire, for example, Upper Valley Human Society can take care of their pets so that they don’t have to surrender them. Emergency boarding is for a two-week period and can sometimes be extended, depending on the situation. Offered on a case-by-case basis due to limited capacity.

UPPER VALLEY HUMANE SOCIETY
Upper Valley Humane Society (UVHS) is a non-profit animal shelter, adoption center, and animal services organization serving the Upper Valley Region of Vermont and New Hampshire. UVHS provides adoption opportunities, as well as services to help pets stay with their families including a pet food pantry, community spay/neuter clinics, and temporary emergency boarding for the pets of people in in crisis (e.g. domestic violence, homelessness, and medical issues). It helps reduce over population and saves lives by helping property owners with cat colonies through its Trap-Neuter-Return program and barn cat adoptions. UVHS also works with dozens of towns, providing stray animal holding and assistance to police on cruelty and neglect cases.
