Kitchener Waterloo Humane Society

Kitchener Waterloo Humane Society The Humane Society of Kitchener Waterloo & Stratford Perth has been serving the community since 1927. The humane society is self-funded and self-governed.

In 2012, the Kitchener Waterloo Humane Society and the Stratford SPCA combined under one organization and board of directors to create KWSPHS. The Kitchener Waterloo Humane Society and Stratford Perth Humane Society have long standing histories of serving people and pets in their communities. In 2012, the two organizations joined to become one of Ontario's largest animal welfare charities. Today,

they are known as The Humane Society of Kitchener Waterloo and Stratford Perth, which operate animal centres in Kitchener and Stratford. Together, they service the areas of Kitchener, Waterloo, Wilmot, Woolwich, Wellesley, Stratford and Perth County. The humane society also helps animals outside of these areas, as time and resources allow. Outside of contracts for animal services, they receive no government funding. Instead, they rely on the generosity of donors to help animals within their communities and to provide animal welfare focused education and outreach. MISSION
We are leaders in animal welfare in our communities, focusing on the responsible treatment of animals through education, compliance, advocacy and care. VISION
Communities that value and respect animals. VALUES
Serving communities

Meet Rosco! 🐾

Rosco is a fun-loving, energetic boy who is happiest when he's outside 🦴 This active guy is looking for a family who can keep up with his playful spirit and give him the time, patience, and structure he needs to thrive.

Rosco would do best in a home without shared entrances and with older children who have experience with large dogs 🏡 He would also prefer to be the only dog in the home. Cats may be considered with a proper, slow introduction.

If you're looking for an energetic adventure buddy who loves being outside, Rosco might be your perfect match!

The love we share with our pets never truly leaves us; it simply finds new ways to stay close. For many families, having a dedicated place to return to brings comfort, connection, and a sense of peace during the quiet and more difficult moments of remembrance 💙

Our animal columbarium offers a peaceful, permanent space to honour your beloved companion. It is a space created with care, where you can reflect, visit, and feel close to them in a meaningful way; today and for years to come 🐾 A lasting tribute that reflects the bond, loyalty, and deep connection you shared.

Love doesn’t end, it becomes part of who we are.

With 27 spaces remaining, we invite you to learn more about creating a meaningful place of remembrance for your pet. We are here to support you whenever you are ready. Learn more: https://kwsphumane.ca/cremation-services
