Maricopa County Animal Care & Control - PetSmart Everyday Adoption Center
Our Mission
At Maricopa County Animal Care & Control, we are dedicated to serving the people and pets of our community by fostering a safe environment and reducing the homeless pet population. We believe that every animal deserves a second chance to find a loving, forever family.
Why We Are Here
Animal homelessness is a community challenge that requires a collective solution. As one of the nation's largest open-admission shelters, we work hard to provide compassionate outcomes for the lost, surrendered, and stray dogs throughout Maricopa County.
How We Care
We provide a supportive shelter environment at our East and West Valley locations and our Everyday Adoption Center in Scottsdale, where our staff and volunteers provide daily enrichment for the animals in our care. Our dedicated medical team works to keep animals comfortable and healthy while they wait for their new homes. We also believe in the power of our community, relying on our vital foster network to provide temporary, loving homes for dogs in need of extra care.
Your Adoption Journey
Adoption is a joyful partnership, and we are here to help you find your perfect match. Our adoption process is designed to be easy and affordable, with every adoption including spay or neuter surgery, a microchip, and age-appropriate vaccinations. We encourage you to visit our locations to meet the wonderful animals currently waiting for their next adventure with you.
