Our Story:

Kelly Harnett founded Hobo’s Healing Heart in 2014 to honor her once-in-a-lifetime dog, Hobo. After experiencing unexpected bills for expensive emergency medical testing and specialized surgery for her own pets, Kelly realized there was a lack of assistance for pet owners facing these circumstances. Kelly founded Hobo’s Healing Heart to help others in similar situations and prevent the heart-breaking decision to euthanize or surrender a beloved pet because of a financial burden.

Hobos’ Legacy

Thank you to all our donors who have helped save a beloved pet!

“I’d like to thank Hobo’s Healing Heart for their assistance in helping with Panda’s medical bills. The service they provided had a tremendous impact on us and we are forever grateful.”
