Harborview Animal RescueEvery animal deserves a home. Since 2009.
Animal Rescue & Adoption

Meet your new best friend.

Every animal at Harborview is looking for the same thing: someone willing to give them a chance. Come meet them in person, or start with a look at who's waiting right now.

Who's waiting

Dogs, cats, and everyone in between.

01

Dogs

From bouncy puppies to easygoing seniors, dozens of dogs are on the floor and in foster homes right now, waiting to meet you.

02

Cats

Playful kittens, laid-back adults, and everything between — indoor companions ready for a lap to call their own.

03

Seniors & special needs

Gray muzzles, missing eyes, three legs — our slow-to-adopt animals come with reduced fees and lifetime support from our care team.

04

How adoption works

Fill out an application, meet your match in person, and take them home the same day in most cases. Fees start at $75 and include spay/neuter, vaccines, and a microchip.
