Home Chef-Inspired Meals for Pets and Hope for Animals in Need

From the heart of a home chef to your pet’s bowl, every Rachael Ray® Nutrish™ recipe is thoughtfully crafted for a great taste and pet nutrition

When celebrity home cook Rachael Ray created Rachael Ray® Nutrish™ in 2008, her inspiration came from a place many pet owners understand well: love for a beloved companion. Rachael wanted her dog, Isaboo, to enjoy food that was both nutritious and delicious, much like the meals she prepared for her own family. Unable to find a pet food that met her standards for taste and quality, she developed a line of recipes inspired by home-cooked meals and crafted with wholesome ingredients.

Today, Rachael Ray® Nutrish™ has become a trusted name among pet owners seeking quality nutrition for their dogs and cats. Every recipe is thoughtfully created to offer great taste while supporting overall pet wellness. Inspired by flavors from Rachael’s own kitchen, Nutrish products feature ingredients such as real meat and vegetables and are developed alongside a team of pet nutrition experts. The brand offers a variety of options, making it easy for pet parents to find products that fit their companions’ unique needs and preferences.

What truly sets Nutrish apart, however, is its commitment to giving back. From the beginning, Nutrish ensured that a portion of the proceeds from every purchase would help animals in need through The Rachael Ray Foundation®. The foundation supports veterinary and pet welfare organizations across the country, helping provide food, medical care, supplies, and compassionate support for animals awaiting adoption.

The impact has been significant. Between 2022 and 2025, The Rachael Ray Foundation donated more than $9 million annually to organizations dedicated to helping pets in need. These contributions have helped countless dogs and cats receive essential care while they wait to find their forever homes.

Nutrish also serves as the exclusive feeding partner of North Shore Animal League America, one of the largest no-kill rescue and adoption organizations. Through this partnership, the brand helps feed more than 5,000 animals each year as they await adoption. The organization has saved more than 1.2 million lives, and Nutrish plays a role in supporting that mission every day.

For pet owners, choosing Rachael Ray® Nutrish™ means providing quality nutrition for their furry family members. It also means supporting a brand dedicated to improving the lives of shelter animals nationwide. With every bowl served, Nutrish delivers more than nourishment, it helps give animals in need a chance at a brighter future. Find Nutrish wet and dry dog food, dog treats, and cat food at your local store.
