What We Do
PIN provides low-cost veterinary care for individuals with income at or below the federal poverty level and those that have limited income like the elderly, veterans, those that are homeless, or have a disability.
Our clinic in Lockland is the only resource of its kind in the Greater Cincinnati area, serving over 4,000+
pets each year. Our compassionate team is committed to supporting both our clients and their pets with kindness and care.
How to Get Help
Pets In Need is dedicated to helping low-income pet owners experience the love and health benefits of having a pet. We focus on households at or below the poverty level, including the elderly, veterans, those that are homeless, or have a disability. Our eligibility process is simple - many clients qualify through Medicaid, Medicare, or partner organizations. Pet owners are asked to self-identify that they meet our criteria, with income verification collected when necessary for grant purposes or additional financial assistance.
Story of the Month: Support Changes Lives
In the middle of a tough chapter in her life, one pet owner found hope through Pets In Need. Her senior dog was battling a thyroid issue and needed surgery, and her younger dog was overdue for neutering—but the cost of care felt impossible. At our clinic, she found not just affordable treatment, but a team who truly cared. Her older dog began to heal and thrive again, and her younger pup got the care he needed to stay healthy. The compassion she experienced brought comfort during a time when she felt lost. Grateful for the support, she later chose to give back by making Pets In Need the beneficiary of a community fundraiser.
