Call Directions Website

We are located at 4300 Stine Rd, suite 405. We are open the second and fourth Saturday of each month from 10-12. Please bring your ID. WE NEED YOUR HELP!

Our mission is to provide emergency pet food to long term owners who have fallen on hard times. We started in April of 2009, donating pet food to folks who were receiving food from a local church and soup kitchen in Oildale. Quickly we saw a need far broader in this town than imagined. Bakersfield has a high unemployment rate along with overcrowded animal shelters. Many community members don’t have enough money to feed their beloved four-legged companions. They often have to make a choice between feeding themselves or their pet. To date, over 600,000 pounds of pet food has come through our pantry to be given to those in need. Hardship continues for many in our community and the need seems to grow each year. We need your help more than ever! Donations of dog and cat food can be dropped off at All 3 Self Serve Pet Spa locations, Scruffy to Fluffy Pet Spa, Coffee Road Vet, and at Fur and Feathers on Allen Road. All of which are in Bakersfield. We get calls everyday from desperate pet owners asking for help. Many of our pet food recipients frequent food banks themselves. We are solely dependent on public support of monetary contributions, pet food, and volunteer work. Our goal is no family pet goes hungry. Pet food is something we are always in need of. We welcome any brand of dog or cat food, whether it’s bagged or canned, your donation may be dropped off at one of our Barrel Buddies locations in Bakersfield. You can also help BPFP by giving a tax-deductible, monetary contribution via check to Bakersfield Pet Food Pantry, P.O. Box 20801, Bakersfield, CA 93390 or online using the Paypal or Venmo.

Kristie made tote bags from recycled pet food bags for the Pantry 🐾💜

The totes are whimsical, lined, and have colorful straps. These come in so handy to carry all kinds of things 📚 🥫🎧🍈🍩

They are available on a donation basis. Please PM for dates to pick up.

This beautiful silver Lab is Ashy.

Ashy crossed the rainbow 🌈 bridge at 13.5 years.

Ashy was the love of her parents lives and they were changed for the better.

They honored their sweet girl by donating her food and medication to the Pantry so that many other dogs will benefit.

Her parents remember this beautiful soul with these kind words, “Our sweet Ashy, your beauty was not merely in your gentle eyes or joyful spirit, but in the goodness of your heart that knew only how to love.”

Our hearts break for their loss. Thank you for thinking of others and donating in your time of grief 🐾💜
