About this shelter

Humane Society Of The Tennessee Valley in Knoxville, TN

The Humane Society of the Tennessee Valley is located in Knoxville, Tennessee, about 6 miles east of the city. It's open Monday through Saturday from 11:00 AM to 6:00 PM. The organization goes beyond adoptions, partnering with 55 shelters throughout the state and beyond to transfer in animals, and works with vets and community businesses to support adopters in caring for their pets long-term. Its PetHelp Program, including a Pet Food Pantry, aims to keep pets and their people together, and the shelter also runs community outreach programs like Paws to Visit, which brings animals to visit senior care centers.

Adoption process

Visit the Adoption Center in person (no appointment needed) and meet the animal, since meeting the dog or cat first is required before adoption; you can also fill out a digital application beforehand, but placement decisions aren't final until after the in-person meeting.
