We were honored to read the thousands of Love Stories that your adopters submitted this year! In partnership with BOBS® from Skechers®, we are proud to announce the top 25 Love Stories with nearly $500,000 in grants going to the animal welfare organizations who made these adoption matches possible.

It is your dedicated efforts that reflect the purpose of Petco Love Stories – to celebrate the life changing impact of pet adoption and to help save more pet lives.

Thank you for your continued partnership and hard work to save pet lives! Together, we are creating a lifesaving nation.

Petco Love Adoption Rewards are paid out quarterly following Petco’s fiscal year. 4th Quarter adoptions (November, December & January) will payout by the end of February*. Organizations will receive a QTRLY scorecard via email with adoptions recorded to date.

*2023 Annual Data Report required for payment.

Rewards payouts occur the month following the QTR that the level threshold is met. Adoption Partners will be paid the difference between the larger award level threshold and the previous level reached each quarter.

Please refer to your Quarterly Adoption Partner Scorecard for details related to the number of adoptions recorded at Petco for the last quarter. If the adoption numbers do not match your records, please contact your Petco General Manager to correct any mistakes. If needed, corrections to your Adoption Rewards payout will occur in the next quarter.

Organizations performing adoptions must complete a current Annual Data Report (ADR) in the Partner Portal.

Submit your ADR by March 31, 2025 to unlock partnership opportunities for 2025!

We have committed another million vaccines towards stopping the spread of deadly, preventable diseases for pets in need.

Attention all rural organizations: Please take a moment to fill out the Animal Welfare in Rural America Survey! Developed by rural animal welfare leaders, this survey is a key part of a national effort to bring meaningful attention and support to the unique challenges faced by rural animal shelters, rescues, and welfare organizations.

Your input will help both local and national leaders better understand these challenges and advocate for resources, policies, and partnerships that truly address rural needs. And, to thank you for your time, you’ll be entered into a drawing to receive a $100 gift card, courtesy of Rural Humane.
