Animal Shelters in University Place, WA

University Place has two listed animal shelters and rescue organizations, in Pierce County. The mix is fairly even between rescue organizations and animal shelters. Tacoma and Gig Harbor, both within about eight miles, have listings of their own. Opening hours are listed for many of them. A handful of places, and behind each of them a dog or cat hoping this is the week.

University Place has two 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.

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

If nothing here suits, Tacoma, Gig Harbor and Federal Way all have listings within about nine miles. Each one links through from the sidebar.

Every listing here carries a phone number, and some 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.
