 We protect health and safety of humans and animals and enforce local and state laws that
pertain to animal welfare. We work to care, license, and regulate animals, and prevent the spread of rabies.
We investigate, quarantine, and help prosecute cases of vicious and dangerous animals and animal cruelty.
We patrol for, impound, and whenever possible, find homes for the thousands of unwanted animals in Sacramento County.
Our services do not cover the cities of Elk Grove, Folsom, Rancho Cordova, or Sacramento, as they provide their own animal services. Residents can contact them directly or view a map or service areas list.
On behalf of all of the animals that come through our shelter, our dedicated staff and volunteers and our non-profit support organization, TEAM, we remind you to keep your animals safe by micro-chipping, spaying or neutering and licensing.
