Local platforms built for this community

Rehoming a pet shouldn't feel like abandoning them.

Life changes. Leases end. Families move. Right now, pet owners in Clark County and Portland have terrible options.

😟

Shelters are overwhelmed

Local shelters like Bonnie Hays and Humane Society for SW Washington are at capacity. Surrender waitlists can stretch weeks.

Craigslist is dangerous

No vetting, no accountability. Pets end up in bad situations. Scams are rampant on classified sites.

🌎

National platforms miss local

Petfinder and Adopt-a-Pet serve millions nationally but have no local community, no meet-up coordination, no neighborhood trust.

📴

Facebook groups are chaos

Fragmented, unmoderated, and impossible to verify. Good intentions buried in a feed that moves too fast.

Three steps. Zero shelter stress.

01

List Your Pet

Create a profile with photos, temperament, vet records, and your story. We help you write it so adopters truly understand your pet.

02

Get Matched Locally

Our matching system connects your pet with vetted adopters in Portland, Vancouver, Hillsboro, and surrounding areas. Neighbors first.

03

Meet and Transfer

Coordinate safe, in-person meet-and-greets at local parks. Transfer ownership with confidence. Stay in touch if you want to.

We know every shelter, rescue, and foster network within 30 miles.

Pawbridge isn't a national platform trying to serve everyone. We're built specifically for the Portland-Vancouver metro, where WA and OR meet and pet services don't cross state lines easily.
