Oakland Animal Services

Oakland Animal Services partners with Pets for Patriots to help Alameda County veterans adopt companion dogs and cats.

The shelter’s website offers extensive resources for pet guardians. In addition to pet adoption, Oakland Animal Services investigates animal cruelty and neglect complaints, and enforces applicable animal-related laws. The organization provides dog licensing and pet microchip services as well. Oakland Animal Services is a member of the Human Animal Support Services, which provides comprehensive support to keep people and pets together through times of crisis.

Oakland Animal Services welcomes monetary and in-kind donations; see their complete wish list for details. For a more hands on experience become one of their valued volunteers or fosters.
