New partnership expands resources for new pet families, helping them start their journey with greater financial confidence and peace of mind
SEATTLE, Aug. 13, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Every pet deserves the opportunity to live a happy, healthy life in a loving home. But when life takes an unexpected turn, some families are faced with the heartbreaking decision to find a new home for a beloved companion.
To help make those transitions easier, Trupanion, North America's leading pet insurer, and Home To Home®, the direct pet rehoming platform, today announced a new partnership designed to support both pets and the families welcoming them into their homes.
Beginning today, Home To Home adopters will receive access to Trupanion's educational resources, including guidance on preparing for unexpected veterinary expenses and understanding the value of pet medical insurance. Eligible adopters will also receive an exclusive Exam Day Offer from Trupanion, which provides immediate comprehensive coverage following their pet's first veterinary exam.
"Helping pets and the people who love them has always been at the heart of what we do," said MJ Hewitt, Senior Vice President at Trupanion. "Home To Home helps families navigate one of pet ownership's most difficult decisions with compassion, dignity, and a focus on what's best for the pet. Together, we're making it easier for pets to transition into loving new homes while giving new pet parents the education and resources they need to prepare for the unexpected with confidence."
Home To Home's direct rehoming model delivers meaningful results for pets, pet parents, and shelters alike. Approximately
"Every successful rehoming represents a family finding hope during a difficult time and a pet experiencing less stress during a major life transition," said Mandy Evans, CEO and Founder of Home To Home. "When organizations come together to support both the emotional and practical aspects of pet ownership, we create better outcomes for everyone involved. We're excited to work alongside Trupanion to help new families start this next chapter feeling informed, prepared, and supported."
For pet parent Annie, deciding to rehome her cat, Roo Roo, after developing severe allergies was heartbreaking, but Home To Home made the situation easier.
"I realized it was in our best interest to rehome my beloved kitty so he could feel loved again and I could breathe. Thanks to Home To Home, I found a wonderful new mom for my little baby. They were kind enough to send me pictures so I can see how happy Roo is and how happy they are to have him. I am very grateful and can sleep at night knowing he is loved and cherished."— Annie, Home To Home Pet Parent
