Gilchrist County Animal Services
Our Mission
Gilchrist County Animal Services is dedicated to supporting our community through compassionate assistance and education. We focus on resolving animal-related issues with a professional approach, ensuring that our local pets receive the care and attention they deserve.
Serving Our Community
Located in the heart of rural North Central Florida, Gilchrist County has always been a place where people and nature coexist. As the county continues to grow, we serve as a vital resource for both residents and their animal companions, maintaining the small-town spirit that defines our region.
How We Care for Animals
Our team operates from our shelter facility in Bell, where we provide a safe environment for pets in need. We are committed to caring for animals in our custody while actively working to reunite lost pets with their owners or prepare them for their forever families. We rely on community support, including volunteers and foster homes, to help us provide the best possible outcomes for every animal in our care.
Your Role in a New Beginning
Adoption is a joyful partnership that transforms lives, and we believe every pet deserves a loving home. Whether you are looking for a new companion or hoping to help an animal in transition, your involvement makes a meaningful difference in our county. We carefully evaluate the needs of each animal to ensure they find the perfect match for your lifestyle.
