 "As a marine and pet owner, I'm glad to know there is an organization that can help military personnel keep our pets safe and well- cared for until we can be re-united in the event we get deployed. Thank you Guardian Angels for Soldier's Pet for caring about our pets as much as we do! "

Feedback:

L. Harris (FL) — "Thank you for the work you are doing in fostering the pets of our soldiers. Your volunteers who foster are doing a great job. Thank you so very much."

JF, Navy (Illinois) —  "You and Guardian Angels...are awesome!!! Thank you so much. I didn't realize that you check on the dogs that are fostered."

T.R., Spouse of Deployed Hero (Arizona) — "I would have lost one of my family members (my puppy casino) if it weren't for Guardian angels helping me save him...its hard enough when your husband is deployed its harder to be away from your animals while he's gone, guardian angels supports and protects, I couldn't have done it without them...thank you!"  

B.S., Deployed Hero (Tennessee) — "This is the organization that found a foster home for my dog for my upcoming one year deployment. It is an organization of volunteers, but with some operating expenses. If you ever wonder how you can contribute to supporting our troops it may just be by supporting an organization that takes care of soldiers' pets for them. I am certainly thankful for them."  

Marine Mom (New Jersey) — "My son is a Marine with pets that his family were able to care for when he was deployed twice to the sandbox. What a wonderful caring thing to do for our Soldiers serving their country. Thanks for giving me some faith again in the goodness of us Americans."  

KG (Mississippi) — "Being prior military and understand the need, so as long at this program or others like it exist we will open our home to the pets in need. Thank you to our service men and women and to groups that help them and their families and their animals."  

TS (Arkansas) — "In these times of war, it is every Americans' responsibility to help in any way they can. I ask every person who visits this site to get involved any way possible. God Bless America and all Americans." 

BM (North Carolina) — "I'm so glad I found this site. Thank you and God Bless our military men and women. I'm signing up to help and being an animal lover, couldn't imagine having to leave them behind. I hope we all can help." 

A (Georgia) — "Wanted to send congrats to all of the people on this website that are willing to take care of our troops' animals. I know it is not a task for everyone and sure that all of the troops that do not have anyone to care for them give thanks everyday that their best friends are being taken care of." 

RE (Arizona) — "While searching the internet for info on a project I'm working on. Congratulations to everyone for working so hard to make this such a success for our military, they certainly deserve all our help and thanks." 

DZ (Wyoming) — “Thank you for remembering the animals in this crisis.” 

East Coast Hero — “Thank you for all your help. The sacrifice your group and its members make in opening up their homes to other peoples pets is huge and should not go unnoticed. Due to suggestions from your Arkansas and Minnesota Chapters that I found a Rescue Group in my area who will assist in ensuring my pets are cared for in their home environment. Thanks to your suggestions, my pets are now able to stay in the home they know and love, although I know my pets would have been happy if they had had to go to the foster home you had found for them. I can't thank you enough for the service you provide.” 

SPC MT (New York) — “I am a returning soldier from OIF. I was fortunate enough to have a family who could care for my pets while I was deployed. My pets are an important part of my life and I would have been devastated had I not been able to have them cared for. I will be glad to offer my home to any soldier who needs to place his/her pet while deployed.” 

PS (near Connecticut) — “I heard about your organization through Military. COM and think this is a wonderful idea. My husband is active duty Navy and we had never heard of the services you offer.” 

SPC SMD (Wisconsin) — “I would like to thank all of the "Guardian Angels" for their participation in such a program as this. Pets are an important part of a family. Thank you for your kindness and support.” 

RH (Michigan) — “This is an awesome idea! If you find someone in need please contact me.” 

S (Maryland) — “What a great idea, I bet a lot of people don't even think of pets whey they think of what military families go through during deployments. As the "mother" of two terriers and the wife of an Air Force man, this strikes my heart. I would be more than willing to take in a dog while it's owner is deployed.” 

TP (New Jersey / Germany) — “Absolutely love this cause. I passed this article I read on to my mom, a lover of animals and the armed forces, so I know she'll love this idea as well and is networked on a lot of message boards, so will probably help get the word out as well.” 

RSF, USCG-Retired (Massachusetts) — “We believe in the silent, yet powerful support of pets!” 

K (Virginia) — “This sounds like a great program and I hope it spreads to other parts of the country. Keep up the great work.” 

R (California) — “This is excellent! Our pets mean so much to us and ask for so little in return. To know your pet is in the care of someone who will give them the love and attention they deserve will put the mind at ease and let the serviceperson's attention be on other issues.” 

B (Kentucky) — “This is such a great idea. We had to leave our lil girl and our horse as well when hubby got order to S. Korea. Luckily our lil girl is staying with a couple of his friends who think she is the best lil dog. I will be sure to pass this link to all my online buds.” 

L (Virginia) — “What you are doing is simply special. I will be more than happy to help in your great project.” 

M (California) — “This touches my heart in an amazing way. As the proud new owner of a rescued kitten, I'm going to share this website with all of the pet-lovers I know… both military and non-military. I would be proud to be involved with this organization.” 

TL, USMC Retired (California) — “I think you have a great idea. I have many people I send e-mails to and am going to send your website to them.” 

M, Active Duty-Navy Sr Chief (Florida) — “This is one of the most thoughtful ideas I heard of in my 24 years of military service. Great program!!! Keep it up. I will be glad to publicize this organization at my command.” 

H (New Hampshire) — “I would like to help raise funds or start a chapter of your organization. I am a member of the military and am very happy to see that someone has thought of this worthwhile cause. I have four pets and if I deploy or go on a remote tour and am lucky that I have family who are willing to take them if I go. I have always wondered how I would feel if I didn't have that outlet and I'm glad to see that now other members of the military will not have to worry either. Thank you.” 

DB (Oklahoma) — “I have a dog and 3 cats of my own, but would gladly keep a pet of any military member assigned overseas. I was a military spouse for 34 1/2 years and had to give up a couple of pets over that time frame.” 

JR (Washington) — “I think this is a great site and you all are doing a tremendous service. I am located in the middle of 3 bases (Army, Air Force, Navy) and it would be nice if chapters could start near all military bases.” 

MH (Kentucky) — “I think this is really great. To think that I would have to leave my babies not knowing if they would get love, food, water, and a nice place to sleep and play time would break my heart. If you need our help to care for a man or ladies loved baby pet, we sure would love to do so.” 

J (Illinois) — “I think this is a wonderful thing you are doing for our troops.. as a pet owner I know how much one's pet means to them... the joy and solace they bring. God bless you in your endeavor.” 

D (New Jersey) — “God bless you all for doing such a wonderful thing for our service members and their pets! Keep up the great work!” 

B (Washington) — “Thank you so much for what you are doing. I am a single reservist who may be faced with the problem of having to leave my two "kids" if deployed. Now I know that there is an option and that there are people out there who understand the importance of pets and are willing to help. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for your caring and dedication to our troops. You are a true inspiration.” 

A (New Hampshire) — “Just got a press release from the DoD about your program. As a veteran myself, I salute you. What a wonderful, wonderful thing you are doing. Thank you for looking out for those who can't speak for themselves and giving their owners an alternate that they will be at peace with during their deployment.” 

PW (Florida) — “Awesome site - great that someone thought of their pets.” 

A (Oregon) — “I didn't know that someone was offering this for their soldiers. God bless you. I am very glad that someone had this vision.” 

C (Arizona, Washington, DC) — “This is a great thing you folks are doing! Too often, no thought is given to the flying/walking/swimming partners in our deployed soldier's lives. Keep up the great work. Each and everything positive that communities do to ease the deployed (Active, Reservist, Guardsmen) soldier's concerns helps that soldier to concentrate on their mission. Thank you all.”
