Sonoma County Animal Services is committed to serving the public in the care and well being of animals, both domestic and livestock, throughout the unincorporated areas of Sonoma County and the City of Santa Rosa.

Sonoma County Animal Services is open to the public by appointment only for animal surrenders, reunifications, stray drop offs, and spay/neuter surgeries. Please contact our staff by calling 707-565-7100 or sending an email to theanimalshelter@sonoma-county.org to make an appointment.

For adoptions, please review our protocols. 

When coming to our facility for an appointment, bring a mask and maintain six feet of distance from staff.

Due to limited staff and high call volumes, there may be extended wait times when calling. While customer relations staff may be able to service transactions via phone, we encourage you to use our online resources for Love Me Fix Me applications and general information.

Please check individual pages for specific updates by using the menu on the left if you are on a computer. If you are navigating our website using a smart phone, the menu can be found by clicking the button (square with three horizontal lines) on the right side next to the magnifying glass. Once the main menu is open, most information will be found under Services and Information.
