Frederick County Animal Control is dedicated to protecting animals and fostering a more aware, caring community by enforcing local ordinances and providing a safe, loving environment for homeless pets.
We believe in the power of second chances. As the county's primary resource for animals in need, our team works tirelessly to support both the pets in our care and the residents of Frederick County through dedicated service and community education.
Our facility on Rosemont Avenue is a bustling hub where our staff and volunteers provide essential care for abandoned and relinquished animals. While we are currently undergoing an exciting expansion to improve our space by winter 2026-2027, our commitment to our residents remains stronger than ever.
Adoption is a joyful partnership, and our team is here to help you find the perfect match for your family. By focusing on thoughtful placements and sharing our wealth of knowledge, we ensure each pet finds a home where they can thrive, whether you are looking for a playful dog, a companion cat, or a small animal friend.
Are you ready to grow your family and save a life? We invite you to browse our available residents through our online adoption search or reach out to us at 301-600-1546 to schedule your reservation. Your journey to finding a loyal companion starts right here with us.
