Fred-0
Paper plate-1
Fred may not be able to protect you, and he may end up trading you for a chicken nugget, but we still think he’s perfect and that you should adopt him!
Freddy Fredrick Federico is back from his foster home for a bit and is super ready to meet you! He’s a cross between dog and chipmunk, you’ll have a one in a million pal!
Email [email protected] to meet him!
You can basically call us a Stanley stan account because he is perfect ❤️ Can someone adopt him already?!
Friends, follow our TikTok account, @evanstonpets, and help us get our cats and dogs the spotlight they deserve!

🚨🚨🚨 MEET OUR NERDS! 🚨🚨🚨
Look, we know you’re tired of hearing it and we’re sad that we have to keep asking, but we really need some super awesome families to come adopt or foster a dog!!!
In 3 days, our population has doubled. Our long-termers are stressed, our new babes are scared, and we know these dogs would be so great in a loving home with YOU! Be a hero and come break one of these guys or gals out so we can make space for the next one that we know is waiting for us!
Come to 2222 Oakton Street and check ‘em out. This weekend we’ll be open:
Friday: 3-5 PM
Saturday: 12-5 PM 🚨(special hours!) 🚨
Sunday: 12-3 PM
Tag your bestie, your partner, your fam if you see something one that’s their style 😏
Dave
We have been O. B. S. E. S. S. E. D. with Dave since he came to us in March of 2023!!!
This absolute hunk came to us a shell of what he is now thanks to a foster home who’s had him for the past 10 months but we all agree it’s time Dave found his ✨forever✨! We really are baffled that he hasn’t had interest. This boy is the perfect mix of brains and brawn, plus he’ll keep you young with his silly little antics like going into the bathroom while your showering just to fart and then leave. Basically a forever teenager minus the attitude and he’ll always show you he loves you!
Our current population is the highest it’s been in months. We’re a small shelter that filled up its kennels in the past two days and adopting dogs like Dave helps us move another into a foster home. So PLEASE consider taking this lug home!
Dave needs to be an only animal, but he’s all you’ll ever need. We promise! ❤️
Parker
Need we say more?
Adoptable Parker is ✨READY✨ to get out of here.
This pure bred good boi ❤️
-water 💦
-dogs 🐶
-people 🧍♀️🧍♂️
-treats 🦴
Basically all the good things in life! He’s a 4-5 year old lab and can’t wait to find a family! Come meet him aka take him home aka love him forever! ❤️
We’re open today until 3 pm or email us at [email protected] for more info!
Update: Putter has left the building to go to foster!
🚨HEARTBREAKER ALERT🚨
Meet Putter.
We got a call earlier in the week with asking to surrender this 9-10 year old dog. Through theft call, it was clear Putter was in an unsafe environment and we jumped, no questions asked, to save him. He walked into our shelter with a little arthritic walk, constantly wagging tail, and beautiful soft eyes that can melt any heart. He’s just a good boy in dire need of a hero to break him out of here. No animal should be spending their golden years anywhere but a warm and loving home.
Truthfully, we’re not sure exactly how much time Putter has. We’re waiting on blood work results to find out more. But he’s got so much life in his soul that there has to be someone who wants to help him. We promise you, he is so darn special.
He’s said to have lived with dogs, cats, and children. His sweet temperament makes us believe he could continue to do that. Please come see him today from 3-5 PM or tomorrow 12-3 PM if you’re interested in fostering or adopting him. If those times don’t work, please email us at [email protected] and we can work out another time ❤️

The kittens are coming, the kittens are coming!!
It's kitten season, and our first duo of available kittens is ready for their debut . . . and, boy, are they ever ready for a loving family to take them home and play, play play!! Samwise and Ragtime were both brought to the shelter as single kittens, but they have teamed up to be quite a pair. They look like long-lost siblings that have been reunited!
We've had surprisingly few kittens come to us this spring, but that is changing, and we have a number in foster just waiting until they are ready to go home with you!
This pair, Samwise (M) and Ragtime (F), are ready to go home today, so please stop in to 611 South Blvd this Saturday between 12 and 3pm (or risk waiting until Wednesday between 5 ans 8pm) to meet them. They won't be here for long! Can you resist these sweet tabby faces?❤️❤️❤️
This could be the face you wake up to every morning…..a smooth-brained, single cell, lover boy 😂
We’ve posted Stan the man a few times. He first came into us an emaciated stray covered in a skin infection only worried about where his next meal was going to be. That’s all a thing of the past for him (except food. Food is still everything for him) and now we’re hoping to get him into a home for the next chapter of his life!
Stanley has made some dog friends at the shelter but does best with slow intros! He’s a great hugger but at 70 lbs, older kids may be best for that. We’re not sure how he feels about cat friends yet.
Come check out this chunk and you could be adopting the best comedian you’ve ever seen!
It’s safe to say our newest intake George Michael knows his worth and isn’t afraid to tell us exactly what he wants 👏
Georgy was tied up at the top of Mt Trashmore in James Park. Some citizens saw and called EPD who promptly brought him to us! We’re not sure what the circumstances were (no negative comments pls) but we are having SO much fun with this unicorn!
He’s going into a temp foster tmrw and we’d love to get him adopted ASAP! He’s about 20 lbs, kid and dog friendly, and so much fun! Email us at [email protected] if you’re interested and check the comments for a super cute pic of him!
RALPHIE!
GOALLLLLLLLLLLL!!! ⚽️🥅
Ralphie’s soccer summer training has begun and it’s safe to say his hard work is paying off! He may think his foster sister is a lousy goalie but hey, at least she’s participating!
Ralph is currently our longest term dog and is absolutely shining in his foster home. He’s done great with his foster sibling and is warming up to new people all the time! He needs a forever home and he’ll be your best friend forever! ❤️❤️
