Animal Shelters
Please note: Due to increased animal populations in the shelters, our ability to accept animals surrendered by their owners is limited at this time. We will reassess this situation at the end of June. Thank you for your patience!
We:
- provide dog and cat licensing services
- take in stray and surrendered animals or those in need of protective care
- provide quality care for homeless animals that are sick or injured
- reunite more than 2,000 lost animals with their guardians each year through our lost and found pets program
- find responsible, loving homes for more than 4,000 animals each year through our pet adoption programs
- provide vaccinations and microchip implants for animals to prepare them for adoption
- spay and neuter cats, dogs and rabbits to reduce pet overpopulation
- provide volunteer and donation programs to benefit dogs, cats and small animals

Animal shelters are open seven days a week from 10:30 a.m. to 6:30 p.m. and closed on statutory holidays, Remembrance Day and Easter Monday. Free parking.
