The staff has always been very kind and helpful. They have a variety of cats and dogs available to adopt. Please consider adding a furever friend to your family.

Dedicated staff, they meet the needs of both animals and people in a very personal way. Every time I visit I am pleasantly surprised. Thank you.

I volunteer here. Everybody here is wonderful. It is one of the more organized animal shelters in town, or just in general. People who work here really love the animals in shelter. Occasionally there will be a 'clean-up' event where every animal is free.

Employees and volunteers are as helpful as they can be. There are often long lines when the parking lot is full - so do not get frustrated if you're there for 2 hours to adopt. Highly recommended.

I've adopted both of my cats from the humane society and they are wonderful. The cats came with a free visit to the vet for the first check up and the fee was small for adoption less than 50 for one cat. Also the cats are well taken care of and loved that this place. They didn't have any fleas when I got them :)

Though the exterior of the building looks like a prison, the environment created by the staff is friendly and inviting. The staff is dedicated and sincere despite their very difficult work and conditions. Good place; good purpose.

Knowledgeable staff. They seem to get new homes for pets rather quickly. That's says a lot for our community too. The shelter is super clean and I love the free roaming cat room. We were able to select a cat from there knowing he was social and we would have a great chance at him getting along with our pets at home. By this feature of the shelter, we were able to adopt an adult cat, who normally take a backseat to kittens.

These folks have protect our pets when they get into bad situations. They took good care of my dear cat Charlie when he had a long adventure and I was able to enjoy his good company again after I spotted him in their mobile unit.

This is a non-traditional (and, sorry - really long!) review. We were the "re-home" for a dog we found through Craigslist who we (quickly) discovered had massive separation anxiety. Our house was progressively getting destroyed every time we had to leave (read: scratched up doors, ripped up carpet, chewed THROUGH a door), and we were at our wits' end. We'd ordered a crate, but it hadn't arrived, and we knew we were going to need to be away a couple times during the coming days before the crate arrived. We were so desperate that we seriously contemplated surrendering her to a shelter because we just didn't know what to do and were dreading whatever the next ante-up was going to be in terms of destruction of our home.

(Side note: I'm pretty sure I cried for about two days straight as I contemplated this. I volunteered at a shelter for several years, and I saw first-hand that dogs with separation anxiety were really hard cases for shelters. The dogs are otherwise really adoptable, but they get returned over and over again by angry people whose homes have been destroyed by them. The amount of time and energy spent by shelter employees and volunteers trying to desensitize and retrain these dogs is fairly enormous. Knowing all this, you can imagine how horrible I felt even considering having to burden a shelter with her.)

In a last ditch effort, I called Almost Home to see if they possibly rented out crates. They don't, but they did something better - they loaned us a crate. And even blankets to put inside. I really appreciated their efforts to try to help us KEEP a dog that was otherwise headed back to a shelter because a family just couldn't make sufficient accommodations for her.

[The end of the story is that said dog broke out of the crate and further destroyed the house while we were away for just over an hour, but thankfully, the ordered crate arrived several days early, we massively reinforced it, and I didn't leave the house for 2 weeks while we crate trained her. She still doesn't like us leaving, but she does go in the crate willingly, and thanks to the crate and anti-anxiety meds, we still have her!!! (And the destruction of our house has stoppedstill need to repaint, fix carpet and screen doors, and replace an interior door, though)]

Anyway, I really appreciated the efforts of the people at the shelter, their kindness, and their long-sighted vision for the care of animals, not just those currently at the shelter. If we found ourselves needing to adopt again someday, I'm confident our search would start at Almost Home.

Nice selection of fur babies. Easy to adopt and most animals are already spade or neutered and cone microchiped.

Great place that supports an entire city of stray pets. They are plugged in and can offer city-sponsored programs to help your pet get spayed or neutered for a low price. This is a great place to get a better understanding of your pet's needs. Friendly volunteers are there to help. Consider donating pet food here! You can ship through Amazon or just drop it off!
