    About Us

    Together, We Are Joybound

    Supporting the Connection Between People and Pets Through a Lifetime Partnership

    Dogs and cats aren’t just animals we take care of. They take care of us too. When you bond with a pet, it is scienti?cally proven to make you healthier and happier. But you don’t need a bunch of research to tell you that. You can feel it with every belly rub or every time they rush to greet you at the door. Creating that feeling has been our driving purpose for more than 30 years: we’re on a mission to unleash happiness.

    Joybound’s mission is to inspire and nurture the human-animal bond and bring people and animals together to enrich each other’s lives.

    We are Joybound People & Pets, formerly the Animal Rescue Foundation (ARF). Headquartered in Walnut Creek, CA, Joybound is committed to forming, supporting, elevating, and celebrating the human-animal bond through cat and dog rescue and adoption and services such as training and veterinary care, food and supply assistance, therapy and service-animal programs, and rich learning resources for all pet families. Our goal is for every adoption story to become a lasting tale of friendship, love, and mutual happiness.
