Habersham County Animal Care and Control
Our Mission
Habersham County Animal Care & Control (HCACC) is dedicated to promoting public safety and animal welfare through compassionate care, community education, and responsible pet management. Our team works tirelessly to foster safe, positive interactions between people and animals while enforcing the standards that protect our community's four-legged residents.
Our Commitment to Animals
We serve as a dedicated resource for Habersham County, providing a safe environment for an average of 250 animals each month. Guided by values of integrity, accountability, and professionalism, our staff works to ensure that every animal in our care is treated with compassion and respect as they await their next chapter.
How We Care
Our shelter operates as a central hub for animal care within the county, providing essential services such as shelter, medical vaccinations, and spay/neuter support. We are a team of dedicated professionals focused on managing animal welfare through structured, transparent care practices and community partnerships that help us manage local needs effectively.
Find Your New Best Friend
We invite you to visit our shelter to meet the wonderful dogs and cats currently waiting for their forever homes. Whether you prefer to cuddle with a kitty or take a dog for a walk, our team loves helping you find the perfect match. Every adoption includes spaying or neutering, essential vaccinations, a microchip, and peace of mind through a complimentary month of insurance.
