More than Just Critter Care
The City of Sacramento Animal Care Services does far more than
caring for lost, injured and abandoned animals in our community.
We provide a variety of services that protect both citizens and
animals including:
- Transporting stray injured
animals to veterinarians for
emergency care.
- Rescuing animals from locked
vehicles and abusive or negligent
conditions.
- Taking wild animals to the
Wildlife Care Center or relocating
them, if possible.
- Impounding loose and stray
animals.
- Administering a rabies control
program.
- Helping citizens resolve nuisance
problems such as complaints about
barking dogs.
- Investigating dog bite complaints.
- Assisting other agencies such
as the Sacramento Society for
Prevention of Cruelty to Animals
(SSPCA), the Police and Fire
Department, and California Highway
Patrol.
- Educating pet owners on the
importance of spaying or neutering
their cats and dogs.
Most importantly, we keep lost
pets safe and happy so they can
be reunited with their owner or
adopted into a new family.
