Pet Trust Power of Attorney Form

Protect Your Pet's Future with a Pet Trust Power of Attorney

When life takes an unexpected turn—whether through illness, travel, military deployment, or other circumstances—your pet's care shouldn't be left to chance. A Pet Trust Power of Attorney is a legally binding document that grants a trusted individual the authority to make veterinary decisions, arrange boarding, and access funds for your pet's care.

Why You Need This Form

Unlike standard powers of attorney, a pet-specific POA addresses the unique needs of animal companions. This form enables pet owners, veterinarians, estate attorneys, and animal care professionals to establish clear legal authority for pet care decisions. It covers medical emergencies, routine care, boarding arrangements, and financial authorization—all critical elements that general POA documents often overlook.
