Shelter FAQs

Elk Grove Animal Services is committed to providing exceptional service to all of our community members: canine, feline, human and more! We are here to ensure that all animals within our community are treated humanely by way of a variety of services and programs.

As our shelter grows, so will our programs. This is an exciting time for our animal-loving community in Elk Grove and we hope you’ll join us in our mission!
Most services are offered to Elk Grove residents/pets only, but we will adopt pets out to outside our city if adopters come to us.

Adoption steps

  1. Visit the Facility and Find a Pet
    1. Visitors are welcome to browse any time we are open.
  2. Meet the Pet
    1. If visitors would like to meet a pet outside of the kennel, a staff member or volunteer can assist them.
  3. Submit Application
    1. If it seems like a good match, the visitor will fill out a short questionnaire to help us guide their individual adoption consult.
  4. Sign Adoption Contract
    1. All adopters sign a contract and any disclosures required for that specific animal.
  5. Pay Fee
    1. With the exception of sponsored pets or specific promotions, all animals have an adoption fee.
  6. Take the Pet Home
    1. Adoptions occur same day and take usually about 1 hour in total.

Additional adoption info

As of June 15, 2021 our shelter has re-opened fully to the public and is conducting adoptions first-come, first-serve.
