Owner Surrender Appointment Request Logo
  • Owner Surrender Request

  • Due to our shelter’s extremely limited kennel space, our ability to find adoption, foster or rescue placement for your pet is not guaranteed.

    We strongly encourage exploring alternatives such as rehoming or contacting rescue organizations before proceeding with your appointment.

    Thank you for your understanding and for considering all options for your animal prior to surrendering to Animal Care Services.

    Network your pet  

    • Our owner surrender appointments are booked several months in advance so we suggest  you that attempt to rehome on your own through websites such as https://rehome.adoptapet.com , https://nextdoor.com, etc.  Adopt-A-Pet has resources to assist with responsibly rehoming your pet.  
      San Antonio Animal Care Services is not affiliated with adoptapet.com. This is a resource available to everyone.
