As the area’s premier no-kill shelter, the Humane Society of Sarasota County engages the hearts, hands, and minds of the community to help animals. We achieve our mission by providing compassionate care to our shelter pets, finding them permanent homes, and promoting responsible pet ownership in our community. Our vision is a community where all animals are cared for and loved. HSSC saves 3,000 ca

t and dog lives each year through a combination of adoption, reuniting lost pets with their owners, community cat programs, and more. Until the day when every pet is a wanted pet, adopters are the angels who make happy endings possible for the thousands who have been abandoned. If there is room in your home and heart, visit HSSC and bring home the pet of your choice. HSSC's adoption fee includes spaying/neutering, health checks, vaccines, preventatives, and microchipping.

HAPPY TAILS UPDATE: Camo was adopted in October of 2024.

"We adopted Camo at the beginning of October right before the hurricane, and he is already fitting in perfectly. He is the best puppy who loves to hang out with his uncles and his brother. He loves car rides, playtime in the park, and nice long scenic walks. We are so grateful for him and happy to give him a loving home. We cannot wait for all of the adventures to come!"
-Shannon & Anthony

HAPPY TAILS UPDATE: Edward was adopted in September of 2024.

"Just wanted to show you guys some pictures of Edward (aka BIG ED, Edweirdo, Edster) in his new home with his brother and sister. Safe to say, I think he is pretty darn happy. We love him so much! He loves to wrestle with the other two, chew on shoes/slippers (trying to nip that in the bud), go on long walks, and he shares a pillow with me every night! He made a great addition to our family!"

Our Story

As the area’s premier no-kill shelter, the Humane Society of Sarasota County engages the hearts, hands, and minds of the community to help animals. We achieve our mission by providing compassionate care to our shelter pets, finding them permanent homes, and promoting responsible pet ownership in our community. Our vision is a community where all animals are cared for and loved. HSSC shelters nearly 2,000 pets each year. Believing that the best place for pets is in the home, HSSC also offers obedience classes and resources to pet owners seeking alternatives to abandonment. Until the day when every pet is a wanted pet, adopters and donors are the ones who give second chances to the thousands of animals who have been abandoned. If there is room in your home and heart, visit HSSC and bring home the pet of your choice. HSSC's adoption fee includes spaying/neutering, health checks/inoculations, flea preventative, rabies vaccination, microchip, and free first exam at the Animal Clinic of HSSC.
