Who We Are
The Santa Cruz County Animal Shelter provides 24-hour animal rescue and is Santa Cruz County’s only full service, open-admission animal shelter. SCCAS has two locations where people can find and recover lost pets and adopt new animal companions. These shelters are tangible evidence of Santa Cruz County’s commitment to animal welfare. They are supported by numerous volunteers and foster care families who provide thousands of hours of assistance to SCCAS staff. We rescue and assure temporary shelter, veterinary and humane care for approximately 5,000 stray, unwanted, abandoned, mistreated, neglected and injured animals every year.
What We Do
Our Events Program include all of our outreach events where volunteers are needed! To take adoptable dogs to events a volunteer needs to be SPOTT (Shelter Pets Out On the Town) trained. You may sign up for SPOTT training on the Orientations/Classes page!
