A huge thank you to Stater Bros. Markets for their generous donation to help stock our foster caregiver kits.

When you foster through Riverside County Department of Animal Services, we provide the essentials you need so you can focus on giving a shelter pet a safe place to stay while they wait for a forever home. Thanks to donations like this, our foster families are well equipped to care for the pets who need them most.

A special thank you goes to Larry, one of our longtime volunteers, for "fostering" this incredible partnership with Stater Bros. His dedication and support have helped bring valuable resources to the animals in our care.

Opening your home for a foster pet saves lives. Every animal placed in a foster home creates space for another pet in need while giving them the comfort and care of a home environment.

Amber A1900888 got a Dog Day Out🐾, and she made the most of every minute. This 1-year-old spayed German Shepherd traded the kennel for a day of snacks and adventure.

Amber settled into the car easily and was all-in on the adventure from the start. She met new people along the way, including a young child, and was gentle and appropriate the whole time. Her volunteer described her as affectionate, happy, and playful. She was easy to guide, loved being included, and made it clear how much she enjoys being around people.

This girl is up for just about anything like hiking, running, walks, car rides, playtime with toys, a day out on the town, or just cuddling up when things quiet down. She's social, fun, and ready to be someone's loyal adventure buddy.

Amber is available for adoption at our Western Riverside County/City Animal Shelter, and all adoption fees are currently waived. Adoptions include spay/neuter, vaccinations, microchip, and a custom engraved ID tag.

Meet Sully (A1928027), who was found wandering the streets, dirty and matted, unable to see due to over three pounds of tangled fur in the heat.

Our Animal Control Officer gained his trust with food and brought him to safety. Our vet team carefully cleaned him up, freeing him from the weight he'd been carrying.

Transformations like Sully's are made possible by a dedicated team that shows up every day, giving animals like him a second chance.

You can help pets like Sull by donating to our Care Fund to help us improve care for thousands of homeless and abandoned pets who enter our shelters.
