Overview

Mission

Our mission is to move adoptable dogs and cats primarily from heavily-burdened areas to loving homes. We work with trusted partners throughout the country and around the world and facilitate vet care, transport, and adoptions to help homeless animals find homes. Jet Wag is also dedicated to supporting spay/neuter efforts and education in the communities we serve.

What it reported doing in 2025

Through partner vets in one of the communities we serve we were able to fund 487 spay/neuter surgeries for a combination of shelter animals (to make them adoption/rescue ready), and provide heavily subsidized ($20) spay/neuter services for owned animals belonging to individuals who receive public assistance. This effort is critical to our upstream approach to tackling the animal overpopulation crisis.

Operating model

Revenue model
Donor-supported. 93% of the money available for current operations came from contributions and gifts.
Distribution model
Direct operator. The filing allocates 100% of reported program-service expenses outside its grant, affiliate-payment, and member-benefit lines. This expense classification does not rule out separately announced grant awards.

The verdict

STRONG - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. Total assets are small relative to annual expenses; liquid coverage is unknown.
