Rehoming Resources

Are you looking for a new home for your pet?

HSNCF understands the decision to rehome your pet is a difficult one. Below are resources that may help you place your pet into a new loving home.

If you are unable to keep your pet due to financial reasons, we do have programs here to help! Dog or cat food that is donated to us is placed in our Community Food Bank. If you are struggling financially, we would be more than happy to provide you with a bag of dog or cat food. We also have a low-cost Spay and Neuter Clinic and a low-cost Wellness and Vaccination Clinic. Grants are occasionally available through these clinics, and we would be more than happy to discuss available grants with you.

Here are several resources you can use to help place your pet in a new home:

On these websites, you can make a profile for your pet, and people interested in adopting him/her can send you adoption inquiries:

If you are on Facebook, there are several rehoming groups. Members of these groups would be able to see a rehoming post and send you adoption inquiries. The groups are:

  • Official Florida Pets! Adopt, Rehome or Foster
  • Florida Pets Free, Adopt, Rehome
  • Swip Swap Gainesville, FL
  • All Animals of Florida-Rehoming
  • Pet Rehoming Gainesville and Surrounding Areas
Craigslist can be a helpful resource if used responsibly, though we recommend using the other rehoming options first.

For military members in need of a temporary home for their pets, please contact Dogs on Deployment.

Need assistance in behavior and training? We recommend J&K Canine Academy.
