HOW IT WORKS

Four steps to take a pet home.

1

Browse

Look through the pets above or drop by either center —no appointment needed.

2

Visit

Come meet the pet in person. Bring household members and any current dogs for a meet-and-greet. 

3

Survey

Fill out a short adoption survey. It helps us match you with a pet that fits your home.

4

Take home

Pay the adoption fee, sign paperwork, and head home —same day adoption. 

Before you come in.

Bring a valid photo ID. 

A current driver's license or a state-issued ID is required at adoption time. Everyone 18+ on the adoption must be present

Bring your current dog.

If you already have a dog, bring them for a meet-and-greet on-site. Leashed and up to date on vaccines.

Bring the whole household

Everyone who'll live with the pet should meet them first, kids included. It helps make sure the match sticks. 

Walk-Ins are welcome.

No appointment needed. Arrive at least 90 minutes before close so staff can walk you through everything.

Landlord approval

If you rent, please have written approval from your landlord or be ready to show your lease's pet policy. 

Payment at pickup

We accept cash and major cards. Fees are paid on-site when you take your new pet home.

A place for everyone

Small acts. Lasting change.

Adopt, foster, volunteer, or give. Your next step can change a life.
