Everett Animal Shelter is an open-admission shelter committed to providing care and comfort to the homeless and abused pets in our community. Your donations provide comfort, extraordinary veterinary care, special-diet food, vaccines and so much more for the cats, dogs and critters in our community who have nowhere else to turn. With so much uncertainty and the current crisis, donations are more important than ever.

Everett Animal Shelter (EAS) is an open admission shelter which means we do not turn any animal away. We take in stray animals, owner surrender pets and animals that have been seized by law enforcement as part of cruelty/investigation cases from 16 jurisdictions. Often the pets that come to us have been turned away at other shelters due to space, behavior or health challenges. EAS does not euthanize healthy or adoptable animals for space and there are no time limits. The shelter's live release rate is above 90%. All animals are spayed or neutered, vaccinated, treated for fleas and worms and given any other care they need while they are with us. In 2019, our veterinarian staff performed over 1920 spay and neuter surgeries and we cared for more than 5500 animals.
