Adopt an Animal

When you welcome a pet into your home, you’re giving them a second chance while also creating precious space in our shelter to care for other animals in need.

Thank you for considering adoption!

Adopting a pet is one of the most meaningful ways to make a difference in the lives of animals and in your community. When you welcome a pet into your home, you’re giving them a second chance while also creating precious space in our shelter to care for other animals in need.

Ready to find your new best friend?

 
NOTE: We’re currently installing new kennels to increase our lifesaving capacity—an important step forward in our fire recovery efforts. If you’re visiting to adopt, please pardon any noise or disruption, and thank you for your patience as we make these important improvements.

Here’s how to get started:

  1. Browse: Explore available pets and find the perfect match.
  2. Meet: Schedule a visit to get to know your potential new companion.
  3. Complete: Finalize the adoption and bring your new pet home.

Find everything you need to know about our adoption process, fees, and what to expect when bringing your new pet home.

Make an impact for an animal in need

Did you know that you can sponsor the adoption fees for a needy animal? Heather and Matt Robbins adopted Abby from HSSV, and regularly come to our Peter Detkin and Michelle Oates Detkin Animal Community Center to sponsor the care and adoptions for animals that need it most.
