About Chance Shelter
Chance Shelter is a compassionate nonprofit organization that opened its doors in 2015 with a clear vision: to support the bond between pets and their families in Surprise, Arizona and the surrounding communities. We understand that loving a pet and being able to afford their care are two different things, and no family should have to choose between keeping their beloved companion and meeting their basic needs.Our Mission
At the heart of everything we do is a simple but powerful belief—pets belong with the families who love them. Financial hardship shouldn’t mean losing a cherished family member. Whether it’s help with pet food, veterinary care, or emergency support, Chance Shelter steps in to bridge the gap. We work tirelessly to provide resources, education, and assistance that keep pets healthy, happy, and home where they belong.Our Programs & Services
Crisis Intervention Life can be unpredictable, and sometimes families face emergencies that threaten their ability to care for their pets. Our crisis intervention program partners with first responders and community agencies to provide immediate support when it’s needed most. We supply resources, temporary assistance, and guidance to help families navigate difficult situations without having to surrender their pets. From natural disasters to personal hardships, we’re there to ensure pets and their people can stay together through the storm.Community Outreach Chance Shelter is more than an organization—we’re your neighbors. We believe in the power of community connection and actively participate in local events throughout the year. Whether it’s hosting adoption events, attending community festivals, or providing educational workshops on pet care and responsible ownership, we’re committed to being a visible, accessible resource. Our outreach efforts help spread awareness about pet welfare, connect families with services, and strengthen the bonds within our community.
Low Cost Pet Services Access to affordable veterinary care is one of the biggest challenges facing pet owners today. Through the generosity of grants and donations, Chance Shelter is developing partnerships with local veterinarians to bring mobile spay and neuter clinics directly to neighborhoods throughout our service area. These mobile clinics will make it easier and more affordable for families to access essential pet health services without the barrier of transportation or high costs. By preventing pet overpopulation and improving animal health, we’re investing in a better future for our entire community.
Looking Forward
Since 2015, we’ve grown alongside the community we serve, adapting our programs to meet evolving needs and expanding our reach to help more families keep their pets. Every day, we see the profound impact that keeping a pet in their home has—not just on the animal, but on the entire family. With continued community support, we’re building a future where no loving pet owner has to face the heartbreak of giving up their companion due to circumstances beyond their control. At Chance Shelter, every pet gets a chance, and every family gets the support they deserve.Our crisis intervention provides first responders with the resources and support needed to help keep pets with their families.
We love our community and we always try to be involved in many of our community events.
Through grants and donations Chance Shelter’s future plans include working together with a local veterinarian to bring mobile spay and neuter clinics to several locations within our community.

Thank you, Chance Shelter, for your amazing help earlier this month! My wife’s brother – a dedicated veteran – passed away, leaving his dog without an owner. You guys jumped in so fast to help Lex get her vaccines all in order and a travel certificate provided so that she could travel to Tennessee to be w/her new owner. We owe you so much!!

I picked up Gizmo we immediately bonded! He really hasn’t left my side since. We originally picked up Gizmo to foster since he had been abandoned at a local store. My daughter and I fell head over heals for him and when the opportunity came to adopt Gizmo we immediately knew he was meant to be with us.

Audra, and Chance Shelter, we will never forget what you did for us and because of this experience I am excited about looking into the possibility of volunteering my time in the future to go be a support system for others that have to go through this so that they too will not be alone.
