Van Buren County Animal Control
Our Mission
At Van Buren County Animal Control, we are dedicated to raising public awareness and fostering cooperation within our community to ensure every pet finds a place to belong. We believe in being a supportive resource for both animals and their families, working tirelessly to secure happy, healthy futures for our residents.
Serving Our Community
Covering over 632 square miles, our department manages essential domestic animal services, from licensing to essential animal welfare cases. We view ourselves as a bridge between animals in need and the families ready to welcome them, striving to keep pets safe and thriving in our community.
Our Approach to Care
Our kennel facility features 18 dog runs and 8 small animal cages, where our dedicated staff provides care and comfort to strays and unwanted pets. Beyond our facility, we actively partner with local rescue organizations to broaden our reach and maximize the opportunities for every animal to find a permanent, loving home.
Connecting Pets and People
Finding the right companion is a joyful journey, and we are here to support you in making a perfect match. We encourage potential adopters to be honest about their lifestyle and needs, ensuring that each transition is a success for both the pet and your family. We are proud to be part of your pet's story as they transition to their new life with you.
Find Your New Best Friend
Our available animals change daily, so there is always a new friend waiting to meet you.
