Top 5 Animal Shelters in Ohio

14597 Power Dam Rd, Defiance, OH 43512, United States

“Love this place! I've been watching this rescue on YouTube for about a year and a half now and been wanting to visit. It really helped me a lot as I was fighting cancer that whole time. It is so relaxing, funny, and very enjoyable! Really helped me get through rough times! The people who run and volunteer here are so incredibly nice! And of course getting to see the cute kittens and all the resident cats is wonderful! Can't wait to get back here soon!”

“We had a wonderful experience adopting our dog from the Humane Society of Delaware County. We applied for several dogs that we were interested in. Several of these dogs were in foster care and so we communicated with the foster owners. We fell in love with one dog in particular. We were able to do a one week foster to adopt trial to see if it was a good fit for us and the pup. The foster owner regularly checked in that first week and long after. She was so helpful. Four months later Howdy is doing great and we cannot imagine our lives without him. This shelter is great and made our adoption process very easy. They truly want what is best for all of the animals!!”

“Wonderful vet and great staff. Both my daughters like brining their pets here. My dog oldest daughter had two bad experiences with her dogs vet that made her after, many years leave. She plans for her dog to see this vet. She likes Animal Clinic Northview too but this one is closer and even better experience with them.”

7996 Darrow Rd, Twinsburg, OH 44087, United States

“Just dropped off $400 of new food, cleaning supplies, treats etc. Only to be greeted with a very sour employee who did not even say thank you. NOT the way you accept gifts or interact with benefactors. Please address your front office staff & educate them for the benefit of all the other hard working staff. Happy New Year.”

1430 Newark Rd, Zanesville, OH 43701, United States

“Attempted to adopt a cat thats good with dogs, cats, and children, they were timely with responses and cordial. I was unfortunately denied at this time. Apparently not having my 1 year old pup neutered was one reason. Also he hasn't lived with cats I'm not sure how am I supposed to introduce him to a cats in home if I'm not able to adopt one? I even agreed to home visit if necessary. I'm not sure what more could be done..”

6790 Webster St, Dayton, OH 45414, United States

“Clean facility and sweet pups! The staff was very educated and informative when helping me chose my perfect match and the adoption process was a breeze! They also had awesome outdoor “get to know” play yards for adopters and volunteers to use. You can tell the pups are well taken care of ❤️”

“The staff was amazing as we now are fostering a wonderful pup and then we will finalize the adoption. It was nice to get a phone call right away as I have called other shelters and had no response. You can see the love the staff gives their animals there.”
