Nevada SPCA

Saving pets in Southern Nevada since 1982

Since 1982, Nevada SPCA has been Southern Nevada’s original no-kill animal shelter (formerly located on Dewey Drive). We are the community shelter, funded by the community and for the community. Our shelter is an independent 501(c)(3) non-profit organization that is completely supported by donations from individuals, local businesses, and grants. We do not receive funding from government contracts and none of our funding goes out of state. Nevada SPCA is not an affiliate of the ASPCA nor are we affiliated with any other SPCA.

ABOUT US

We Help People & Pets

While Nevada SPCA is a safety net for our community's most vulnerable pets, we are also a human services organization. Our walk-in adoptions and low adoption fees make it accessible for prospective families to bring home a new dog, cat, rabbit, guinea pig, or pet rat. Our foster program gives pets and people an experience within their own homes to love a pet until it's ready to be adopted to a forever family. Our volunteers find happiness by helping our shelter staff in the building and all throughout the valley with community outreach opportunities. Our community support program provides food in our Pet Pantry and free and low-cost veterinary assistance to pet families in need to keep pets where they belong: with the owners who love them.

A Note From Our Executive Director

There are more pets than pet owners in Southern Nevada. Instead of answering a "puppies for sale" ad, please consider pet adoptions at Nevada SPCA. Shelters are often stereotyped for only having certain kinds of animals, but every day, dogs, cats, and small pets of all ages, sizes, colors, and breeds enter our world, including puppies and kittens...and we hope that they can enter your world too! Adopt a pet in need today and give the gift of love. If you or someone you know needs assistance with a pet, Nevada SPCA's Community Support Program is here to provide assistance to pets and people, so that we can find happiness together!
