Best Friends: shelter and rescue partner finder
United States
Find animal shelters, rescue groups and other animal-welfare organizations near a community.
Best Friends Animal Society publishes a searchable partner directory covering public and private shelters, rescues, spay/neuter organizations and other animal-welfare groups. A directory result is a starting point, not confirmation of current intake, adoption inventory or services.
Who qualifies
Public directory. Individual shelters and rescues set adoption, surrender, foster, volunteer and service requirements.
How to access it
Search by city, state, ZIP code or organization name, then contact the selected organization directly about current services, hours, intake and fees.
Cost or fee
Free public directory. Provider fees vary.
