Animal Services

Animal Services is a government or community agency responsible for the care, control, and welfare of animals in their jurisdiction. They handle tasks such as responding to animal-related emergencies, rescuing stray or lost animals, enforcing animal laws, promoting responsible pet ownership, and managing adoption programs. Their goal is to ensure the safety of both animals and the public, prevent cruelty, and provide animals with safe, loving homes. They often work with shelters, veterinarians, and community partners to support animal wellbeing and public education.
