Our Founder's Story
As a lifelong animal lover, Joyful Pets founder Lauren McCarron always knew that she was destined to be of service to animals (and pet parents) in need. After selling her first company, Lauren used the proceeds to start an animal rescue group in Western Massachusetts. But, as she worked with the animal shelter system, she saw firsthand the challenges and struggles that animals, pet parents, and prospective adopters faced. That's when she knew she had to find a better way, and so she did!
We're a team of pet enthusiasts who are passionate about connecting pets in need with loving fur-ever homes. Our mission is to change the game when it comes to pet adoption and rehoming, and we're on a pawsome journey to make it happen!
We understand the heartbreaking reality of owner surrenders to animal shelters and want to provide a compassionate alternative. Our goal is to put an end to this by providing a loving, supportive environment for pets to find their new families.
With years of experience under our collars, we know we can make a huge difference in the lives of our furry friends. We believe that every pet deserves a warm, loving home, and we're committed to making that a reality.
Eliza's Story
Eliza was a playful kitty who loved to explore her surroundings. She was always curious and loved to try new things, but one day, her curiosity got the best of her. While playing with her doggy brother's toy, Eliza accidentally swallowed a piece and started to feel sick.
Her family immediately took her to the vet, where they discovered that Eliza needed urgent surgery to save her life. Unfortunately, the high cost of the procedure was more than Eliza's family could afford, and they were left feeling helpless and scared.
That's when they turned to the Social Petwork team for help. As Petwork Pro members, they had access to the Urgent Care Fund, which could provide financial assistance for situations just like this.
With the help of the Social Petwork team, Eliza was able to receive the life-saving surgery she needed. Her family was overjoyed to bring her home, and Eliza was back to her playful self in no time. Thanks to the support of the Social Petwork team, Eliza was able to recover 'purrfectly' and continue living her best kitty life.
