At the City of Las Vegas Animal Care Center, we are driven by a deep passion for animal welfare and a steadfast commitment to providing high-quality care to every pet in need. Our goal is to ensure every animal experiences safety, health, and love while they wait for their forever family.
Founded on a commitment to our local community, our shelter transitioned to city operations in 2022 to provide a dedicated space for animals in need. Led by Shelter Manager Beatriz "Bea" Gallegos, our team has built this center from the ground up to prioritize innovation, compassionate care, and meaningful community partnerships. We believe in being a resource for both animals and the people who love them.
Our dedicated team works tirelessly to create a safe, healthy, and enriching environment for every resident. From daily care and nutritious feeding to behavior enrichment and medical support, we strive to maintain the comfort of every animal in our shelter. We focus on behavioral support, leveraging expertise in rehabilitation to prepare our animals for their future homes.
Adoption is the beginning of a beautiful, joyful partnership, and we are here to help you find the perfect match for your lifestyle. By focusing on each animal’s unique personality and history, we ensure that every adoption is a success for both the pet and the new family. We take pride in guiding you through the process, from your first visit to that final, happy walk out our doors.
