three steps to
more adoptions.

01

get listed.

email us your org details. we add you to the pawd. map and directory — visible to every adopter searching near you.

step one
02

animals go live.

we work with you to bring your adoptable animals into the pawd. matching feed, shown to users whose lifestyle actually fits.

step two
03

donations flow.

when a user wants to donate, pawd. connects them directly to your shelter's donation page or finds you on every.org. 100% of what they give reaches your org — no cuts, no pooling, no delay.

step three

every time someone falls in love with one of your animals, they can donate directly to you.

no pooling · no cuts · 100% to your org

everything.
for free.

pawd. doesn't charge shelters to be listed. our business model funds your org — not the other way around.

map & directory.

your org on the pawd. shelter map — searchable by city, type, and distance. adopters near you find you first.

animals in the feed.

your pets shown to users whose lifestyle, space, and experience actually match — serious leads only.

direct donations.

users who want to give are connected straight to your donation page or your org on every.org — no campaigns, no asks, no pooling.

direct inquiries.

interested adopters contact you directly from inside the app. warm leads, no middleman, no delay.

real analytics.

see views, swipes, and inquiries for each animal. know which pets are resonating and which need a new photo.

$0

free to list.

there are no listing fees. our revenue model is built to fund shelters, not charge them.

01 user finds a pet they love on pawd. matched ✓
02 taps "donate" on your shelter their choice
03 pawd. connects them to your donation page or every.org direct →
04 100% reaches your org — pawd. never touches it 100% ✓

direct to your org.
always.

when a user wants to donate, pawd. connects them straight to your shelter's own donation page (sourced from RescueGroups), or matches your org on every.org. the transaction happens entirely on their platform — pawd. never processes, holds, or takes a cut of donation money.

100% of what the user gives reaches your org. pawd. makes money from ads — not from what shelters receive.
