Pet Hotel Participation

Before Home partners with select pet hotels to provide temporary placement for one shelter dog at a time while the dog awaits adoption. This pilot program is designed to integrate seamlessly into your existing operations, with clear boundaries and full financial support.

Dogs stay under your standard boarding procedures and are treated no differently than other long-term guests. The only distinction is the length of stay, which continues until adoption.

Before Home covers the full cost of care and provides a dedicated volunteer liaison to coordinate communication, receive updates, and document the dog’s progress—ensuring minimal disruption to your team.

Participation offers an opportunity to support animal welfare in a practical, contained way, while giving a shelter dog access to a calmer, structured environment during a critical waiting period.

“Giving a dog a pause before home can change everything.”

— Elizabeth J. Menegon, Founder, Before Home
