Bertie County Humane Society (Roanoke Chowan Humane Society) is a 501c3 Non-Profit Organization that consists of volunteers working out of our county kill shelter.
Our mission is to protect and shelter the stray, orphaned, abandoned, & unwanted animals of Bertie County, NC. We strive to place them into loving, furever homes. We also work closely with rescues and deeply value and appreciate these relationships.
Bertie County, NC is located in very rural, Northeastern NC. Our county shelter is open admission; however it is small, and does not currently have public visiting hours. To visit a dog or cat for adoption, please contact us and we will happily meet you at the shelter for a meet-and-greet with your potential new family member. Our intake & adoptions vary day to day, so it is very possible we may have dogs &/or cats available for adoption that are not yet featured here.
We receive no government funding, and rely solely on donation & contributions. It is with the support of the public’s generosity that allows us to find loving, forever homes or obtain rescue for our county shelter residents. All donations are tax-deductible and greatly appreciated.
We are always looking for animal lovers to share their time and talent as dedicated volunteers. The opportunities range from helping to socialize/play with the animals for adoption at the shelter to helping transport shelter residents to the vet or rescue. If you are interested in volunteering, please do not hesitate to contact us at 252-325-3647. We look forward to hearing from you.

Support adoption and rescue. Why go to a dog breeder, cat breeder or pet store to buy a dog or buy a cat when you can adopt?
Why should you adopt?
Dog adoption and cat adoption saves lives. Adopt a dog or adopt a cat and you'll have a friend for life.
What is the difference between adopting a dog, adopting a cat, adopting a kitten or adopting a puppy versus getting dogs for sale, cats for sale, puppies for sale or kittens for sale from a dog breeder or a cat breeder?
When someone is breeding puppies or breeding kittens, they are creating new dogs and cats who need homes. Some people are interested in a very specific breed of dog, cat, puppy or kitten and they think the only way to find that specific breed is to buy a dog for sale or buy a cat for sale from a puppy breeder or a kitten breeder. Yet animal shelters are filled with dogs and cats who must find homes.
So rather than buying a dog or puppy for sale from a dog breeder or buying a cat or kitten for sale from a cat breeder, we encourage people to adopt a dog, adopt a cat, adopt a puppy or adopt a kitten at their local animal shelter, SPCA, humane society or pet rescue group.
