Mission

Pet-A-Medic serves its community (Los Angeles county) as a free emergency transport service for pets and strays in life-threatening situations and by offering a free 24-hour telephone hotline to help people through administering critical care to animals in an emergency. We "give animals a fighting chance" at their most vulnerable moments.

Programs

In addition to our ambulatory response team, currently all volunteer, Pet-A-Medic also operates a 24-hour help line which can help people when their animals are in crisis by helping them identify the problem, and walk them through possible solutions. We also present CPR training events and educational forums, and offer the "Pet-A-Medic Club Card" to people who join on our website; the card offers discounts on various pet-related products and services.
