Pet Food Assistance: AniMeals, a donation-sustained service, provides monthly deliveries of supplemental pet food to clients who find it hard to maintain the nutrition of their furry companions. Each month, we provide 5,000 pounds of pet food to more than 600 pets. Volunteers deliver pet food on the third Saturday of every month and provide other wellness checks on seniors, further enabling their independence.

Veterinary Care Assistance: AniMeals provides access to and payment for veterinary care for pets of current Meals on Wheels San Antonio clients. We help keep our clients' furry companions healthy with the following veterinary services: wellness exams, vaccinations, spay/neuter, and flea prevention. Unfortunately, we are unable to assist with emergency vet visits.

Pet Care Assistance: We aim to support clients who cannot care for their pets due to poor eyesight, injuries, or hospitalization. Our AniMeals volunteers assist clients in caring for their pets through dog walking, temporary fostering, and transportation for grooming services. Volunteers care for these pets for a set period as needed by the client.

Eligibility: 

• Must be receiving meals from Meals on Wheels San Antonio
