As wildfires continue to devastate communities across California, protecting your home, family, and pets becomes an urgent priority. In areas like Berkeley, Oakland, Moraga, and Lafayette, residents are particularly vulnerable to wildfires, and this is why pet safety during fire season is crucial. Pet owners must not only prepare their homes but also plan for their pets' safety in case of an evacuation or emergency.

Wildfire evacuations happen fast. Sometimes you have hours to prepare; sometimes, it’s only minutes. That’s why every California household—especially those in the East Bay—should have a clear, practiced evacuation plan.
