Animal Shelters in Arizona
Arizona has 343 listed animal shelters and rescue organizations, spread across 14 counties. About half are rescue organizations. Phoenix has more than any other Arizona city, followed by Tucson and Scottsdale. Somewhere on this list is a Arizona dog or cat who would much rather be at your place.
Arizona has 343 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.
A mix of both, 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.
Phoenix has more than anywhere else in Arizona, followed by Tucson, Scottsdale and Mesa. They are the usual place to start if you are willing to travel; the sidebar links straight through to each.
Maricopa, Pima and Mohave counties have the most, though listings reach 14 of Arizona's counties in total. The city links in the sidebar are usually the quicker way in.
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.
