Our Story
Sophie’s Circle Pet
Food Pantry and Dog Rescue
As Volusia County’s only pet food pantry, we are dedicated to providing pet food to financially-challenged families, in an ongoing effort to keep pets in their homes where they belong, along with educating the public on the importance of spay and neuter.
My name is Kathy Blackman and I am the Founder and President of Sophie’s Circle. One husky named Sophie changed my life and that is why I started Sophie’s Circle. Many dogs have since been rescued in her honor. Click below to read more.

Love this rescue! Between myself, my mom and my best friend; we have rescued 3 dogs from Sophies (Balto the husky, Baylee the pekingese and Shelby the shih tzu and they are absolutely wonderful!! Baylee and Balto are the best of friends. Thank you for allowing us to rescue such wonderful fur babies!

This group is amazing! I’m blessed to work with Jen at her paying job and I watch her work tirelessly as her phone never stops. These women stop at nothing to save as many as they possibly can and provide the best vet care for each one they take responsibility for. It is truely amazing to witness and be a small part of. Love them!!!

Max (formerly known as Zeak) was rescued by Jen from a shelter in Orlando. I’m pretty sure Max would not have made it out of there without Sophie’s Circle. A black pitbull with one blind eye is not the “cute” family pet everyone is looking for…but, the volunteers at Sophie’s Circle have a knack for finding and saving the sweet souls that deserve a second chance.
