Our Story

 Howdy!

I'm Amy! I started Pet Rodeo in 2025 to raise funds for a cause I've dedicated my life to: making veterinary care affordable and accessible for everyone. For about two decades, I did that as the CEO of Emancipet, helping to build one of the leading nonprofit veterinary clinic networks in the country. I'm still on the same mission, but in some new ways, including this one!

At Pet Rodeo, we make vintage-inspired graphic tees to help you express your love for animals and advocate for a kinder world, in a way that fits your authentic style! And, we donate ALL net proceeds to nonprofit veterinary clinics and programs that provide low-cost or free vet care to families in need (including Emancipet, of course)! 

Origin story: Here's a photo of me as a kid. Allow the crushed velvet 70s sofa, awesome outfit, and scruffy pupper illustrate how I became an adult dedicated to animal welfare and selling vintage-inspired tees to help dogs and cats in need! 

Look.. there's a ton of mass produced, low-quality animal tees out there, churned out by corporations who don't really care about animals or communities or even great style. I wanted to create something different for the people who do. 

I believe that closing the "access to vet care gap" is the most urgent animal welfare issue of our generation. And, I believe that nonprofit veterinary clinics are the solution. When we support nonprofit clinics, they help more families keep their pets healthy and happy. And that makes the world a better place for animals AND people!

Thank you so much for being here and shopping with us. We truly do wear our heart on our tees here at Pet Rodeo, and every single purchase means so much to us. You can learn more about our Donation Program here. 

Y'all take care, and be kind!

Amy
