As a municipal shelter, we accept animals from Osceola County only and may have a waiting list so we ask you call first when surrendering your pet. Since there are NO state laws regarding cats, we do not pick up cats. As an Animal Control Shelter, we take in stray domestic pets, accepting surrenders from our County's residents, and respond to animal related complaints, enforcing animal laws. Did y

An an additional $150.00 can be charged if your dog is found to be unlicensed. We thank you for keeping your pets safe at home and we are grateful for everyone who maintains their dog's license on their collars - as law mandates - to ensure a safe and speedy return of your lost pet! We love our pets here, and always strive to guarantee their needs are always met. We offer shelter to the weak and homeless, and a safe haven for all who enter our care. We thank you for your support to our mission of compassionate, kind care of our beloved furry friends!
