Project Pet, Inc. is a 501 (c) (3) non-profit, privately funded animal rescue organization. Project Pet, Inc. was established in 2008 by a group of dedicated and passionate animal lovers, residing in New York and Miami. We work together as volunteers, meaning every penny earned goes directly towards our goal of helping homeless pets in our communities.
