Jonesboro Animal Services

At Jonesboro Animal Services we enforce, educate, protect, and assist both the people of Jonesboro and the animal residents too. By enforcing animal-related laws and educating the public about animal care and welfare issues, we protect both the health and safety of humans and animals alike.

The Animal Services Department investigates all reports of animal cruelty, animal attacks, and bite reports. At our animal shelter we care for stray, abused, and surrendered animals. Most of our animals get adopted to new homes. By working both here at home and with animal rescue operations across the country, we find new homes for most of the animals we take in. Come visit us soon. Your new "fur-ever" friend is waiting for you at our shelter!


We love to talk about what we do:

We have many kinds of instructional and educational programs for all ages. We will be happy to come to your school, civic club, church group, or any other group and bring some of our friends!

Studies have shown that just spending some time with an animal friend can lower blood pressure, reduce anxiety, and relieve depression. Many of us have certified our own pets to go to nursing homes, retirement homes, and hospitals to help residents and patients have a better day.

We partner with Northeast Arkansans for Animals (NAFA) to offer low-cost vaccination clinics, and low-cost cat neuter clinics. We also offer free training and socialization classes for you and your pet. ’Like’ us on Facebook and keep up-to-date on all our activities!

We only pick up animals within the city limits of Jonesboro, but we adopt to anywhere in the country.
