Frank Ramsey,with the assistance of the Kayenta Township, is trying to open an animal shelter in Kayenta. The Township has committed 2 acres of land and $90,000. towards a building fund to achieve this aim.

In 2005, SNAP, a mobile spay/neuter provider, spent 4 weeks providing free spay/neuter in Kayenta. In 2006, Plateauland, another mobile spay/neuter provider, continued to visit Kayenta every other month for 1 day of low-cost spay/neuter. In 2007, Dr. Carol Holgate, of Tuba City, AZ, is offered a series of 6 Mondays in Kayenta of low-cost spay/neuter and vaccinations services, subsidized by the Pegasus Foundation.
