Intake Requests - Stray Animals & Pet Surrender

If you have found a stray, or are a pet owner who needs to surrender your pet for some reason, please first complete the appropriate form using the links below. The more information you can provide up front, the quicker we can determine our ability to assist you. Submissions with missing info or photos will cause a delay in our ability to give you an answer.

Because we are a limited-intake, no-kill facility, a request for intake assistance does not a guarantee we can assist. Please pursue any other options for finding safe placement for the stray or your pet while waiting to hear back from us. We are a very small, volunteer based, privately run facility and will do our best to accommodate as many requests as possible.

Please check our Services Brochure (using this link) for more rescue groups and resources in our area.

Note that you must attach at least one photo, preferably a few photos, for all intake requests.

Please allow up to 3 business days for our intake volunteers to get back to you. Note that if you email on Friday night or on the weekend, the response time could be a little longer as we do want our volunteers to have time with their families and their own animals. Thank you for your patience and understanding.

If you have questions about our intake process, please call 480.497.8296, email info@azfriends.org or use our contact form. Please note that we are a volunteer run organization; we thank you for your patience!
