Shelter FAQs

Marion County Animal Services is the largest animal shelter in our county. Operating as a no-kill shelter, our kennels are almost always full. We provide adoption, fostering opportunities, work with rescues, accept volunteers and provide the training for veterinary assisting students. In addition, we run the Neuter Commuter and provide all animal control services in Marion County. Due to the sheer volume of animals in our care, we need lots of help from our community in our effort to adopt out more and save more! We don't only accept the ideal animals into our shelter. We can offer you quite the array of animal breeds and personalites! Keep an open mind when visiting our shelter- you may find that your perfect match is not at all what you set out to find. We're here to help you as well as our homeless and lovable animals.
We serve all of Marion County.
