    Animal Shelters in Burlington, VT

    Burlington has two listed animal shelters and rescue organizations, in Chittenden County. About half are rescue organizations. South Burlington and Williston, both within about five miles, have listings of their own. It is a short list, but every animal on it is waiting for the same thing.

    Burlington has two listed at the moment, and they are shown above with the ones that have photos first.

    The Burlington listings all fall in Chittenden County, which is worth knowing if you are checking whether a shelter takes animals from your area.

    If nothing here suits, South Burlington, Williston and Essex Junction all have listings within about five miles. Each one links through from the sidebar.

    Some listings here carry a phone number, and most link to the organization's own website. Calling ahead is worth it — opening hours change, and rescues often work by appointment rather than keeping a building open.
