Willamette Humane Society’s service area is primarily Marion and Polk County.

If you live outside of Marion or Polk County, see the following list of shelters or rescue groups in your area.

If there are no services in your area, we encourage you to contact your elected officials about the need for animal services in your county. To find the elected officials in your county or district, go to www.oregon.gov, or contact your county commissioner.

While Willamette Humane Society primarily serves Marion and Polk Counties for owner surrenders, we consider animals from other Oregon counties, rescues, and agencies on a case-by-case basis. We weigh factors such as the availability of other shelters and resources, distance, and the likelihood of a positive outcome at our facility. Surrendered animals from outside our service area are admitted with approval from our shelter director.

Call us at 503-585-5900 for questions about surrendering from out-of-county.
