Roscommon County Animal Shelter

Our Mission

The Roscommon County Animal Shelter is dedicated to the compassionate care and humane treatment of all animals found stray, abandoned, or surrendered in our community. We are committed to inspiring compassion through education and striving for the best possible matches for every pet in our care.

Who We Are

As a county-funded shelter in Michigan, we proudly serve the towns of Roscommon, Higgins Lake, St Helen, Houghton Lake, Prudenville, and parts of Gladwin. Our team is composed of passionate staff members who work hard every day—from cleaning kennels and providing enrichment to managing the administrative needs that ensure our animals stay safe and healthy while awaiting their forever families.

How We Provide Care

Our shelter acts as a vital bridge for animals in need, ensuring that every pet receives age-appropriate vaccinations, deworming, and flea treatment. By focusing on education regarding the importance of spaying, neutering, and licensing, we aim to ensure the safety of our pets and the community alike. We operate with a deep commitment to being good stewards of public and donated funds, ensuring every resource directly benefits our shelter animals.

Your Partner in Adoption

Adopting a pet is a joyful partnership, and we believe the best way to find your perfect match is through personal interaction. We encourage you to visit our facility, spend some playtime with our available dogs and cats, and bring your family or other pets along to ensure a great connection. Our staff is here to help guide you toward the companion that will bring love and happiness into your home for years to come.
