a veterinarian for every shelter
our services
VETERINARian OF RECORD services
A Veterinarian of Record Relationship (VORR) closes care gaps in our communities by enabling animal welfare organizations to order drugs and medical supplies under the supervision of a licensed veterinarian. The Veterinarian of Record oversees their use even if they are not physically present. You can enter these relationships in many states, we just so happen to live in Northern California.
Protocols, Training, & Compliance
We help California shelters implement evidence-based medical protocols that are practical, approachable, legally compliant, and aligned with best practices in shelter medicine. Our streamlined processes and ongoing support empower staff to deliver high-quality care while maintaining consistency across daily operations.
Flexible Partnerships
Shelters vary in size, staffing, and resources. That’s why we offer flexible service models—from ongoing oversight and program development to as-needed support for emerging challenges. Whether you need a long-term veterinary partner or help navigating immediate issues, The Shelter Link provides trusted expertise designed for the realities of sheltering.
