In this episode of the Pawareness Podcast, host Kris McCauley welcomes Genevieve Frederick, Founder of Feeding Pets of the Homeless, a non-profit organization that aims to provide care and support for the pets of displaced and houseless individuals.

The inspiration behind the organization comes from Genevieve’s experience in New York when she witnessed a homeless man who was taking care of his pet dog despite having no resources at all. Seeing compassion first-hand, she realized that the homeless community needed more than just a space to live, but also resources to provide care for their animals. She began reaching out to businesses and church organizations that donated pet food, grooming services, and clothing for animals. Soon, the organization expanded with volunteers and partnerships.

Today, Feeding Pets of the Homeless provides immediate care and services for the pets and animals of the homeless community, as well those in the company of veterans. This includes discounted medical services from veterinary hospitals and clinics within the organization’s network for the injured and sick pets. Their programs also enable them to provide livable spaces for the pets in temporary shelters so they don’t have to part ways with their owners whenever they stay in these shelters.

“We all know that the homeless are discriminated against, beaten up, but the animals can alert their owners that they are in potential danger. Their pet gives them unconditional love and protection.” - Genevieve Frederick
