San Diego Humane Society is taking necessary steps to protect the health and well-being of the animals in our care, our staff, volunteers and the community we serve. This page is intended to provide helpful information and any emergency updates about our operation. We also recommend you follow San Diego Humane Society on Twitter @sdhumane for the latest information.
Here at San Diego Humane Society we are working hard to save animal lives while protecting our staff, volunteers and guests. Our employees and volunteers are all wearing masks and keeping six feet apart while interacting with each other and the public. Adhering to the required policies of wearing masks and social distancing is required when visiting our shelter to protect our team who is interacting with the public.
All San Diego Humane Society shelters are open Tuesday through Sunday, 9 a.m. to 6 p.m., by appointment only.
We are providing the following services to our community:
Pet families who need extra help during the COVID-19 pandemic can turn to us. Through our Pantry Service, anyone can visit our campus locations between 10 a.m. and 1 p.m., Tuesday through Sunday, to pick up a bag of dog or cat food as well as other supplies as available.
To protect the health of our staff, volunteers and guests, if you are experiencing any symptoms or if you're in an “at risk” category as defined by the CDC and the State of California, please stay home. Take care of yourself and we'll see you soon.
Please expect a pop-up guest check-in outside before you enter the campus. From there we can route you to your destination. We’re also asking guests to wash their hands at the entrance to the shelter where we have portable hand-washing stations. All areas are being regularly sanitized, and janitorial services have increased cleaning protocol for public spaces.
