Animal Shelters in San Francisco, CA
San Francisco has 24 listed animal shelters and rescue organizations, in San Francisco County. Most are rescue organizations. Alameda and Berkely, both within about 10 miles, have listings of their own. Most of these dogs and cats are being fostered by people who will tell you exactly who they are before you decide.
San Francisco has 24 listed at the moment, and they are shown above with the ones that have photos first. Open any of them for the full address, contact details and opening hours.
Mostly rescue organizations, and the difference is worth knowing before you set out. A rescue usually places animals from a network of foster homes rather than from premises you can walk into, so you generally arrange a meeting first. A shelter or humane society more often has a facility you can visit during opening hours.
The San Francisco listings all fall in San Francisco County, which is worth knowing if you are checking whether a shelter takes animals from your area.
If nothing here suits, Alameda, Berkely and Berkeley all have listings within about 10 miles. Each one links through from the sidebar.
Most 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.
