City of Salem Animal Shelter

Animal Shelter

The Salem Animal Shelter has been caring for and finding homes for the City of Salem's homeless dogs and cats for over 30 years. In August of 2001, we also became the contract housing facility for Craig County's homeless animals. We work hard to put good animals in good homes as well as protect every member of our community. Thanks to a wonderful staff, a strong positive relationship with Animal Control, and support from our city administration and community we are able to do the following and more:

Help reduce the overpopulation of homeless animals through spay/neuter programs

Rescue abused and neglected animals and teach responsible pet care

Educate youth and adults on the value of all life and how to be kind and responsible with animals both offsite in classrooms and on tours of the shelter

Place good animals in new loving homes

Help injured, sick, and orphaned wildlife

Address 1301 Indiana Street, Salem, VA 24153
Service Areas Salem, VA and Craig County, VA
Adoption Process
First, you come into to meet a pet and if it seems like it will be a good fit for the household you will fill out an application. If you have other dogs a meet and greet is required with no exceptions. We do call vets to make sure current and previous pets are/were fixed and up to date on vaccines. We also call landlords or parents (if you live with them still) to make sure you are allowed to have the pet. If you get approved, you get to take the pet home the same day after signing the contract and paying the $30 adoption fee.
Mission Statement

We believe every pet, whether young or old, social or shy, deserves the opportunity to live a safe, healthy, and fulfilling life. Our pets receive the highest level of care, compassion, and respect while in our facility.

We are committed to finding loving, responsible families for every cat and dog in our care who will provide them with the love, attention, and lifelong care they deserve. We promote responsible pet ownership by emphasizing the importance of spaying and neutering, appropriate housing, regular veterinary care, and, above all, a lifetime of love and companionship.

The health status and behavior of any pet found, adopted through, or listed on the WeRescue app are the sole responsibility of the adoption organization listing the same and/or the adopting party.
