 Since
established in 1996, the Animal Shelter has been through a
lot of changes. If you have not been by in a while you should
come by and visit the new staff, our new facilities, and see all
of the changes
that we have made. Most important, come see our animals that
are available for adoption. Our adoption rate is about 52%. We would like that number to be larger and with your help we
can make that goal. The shelter is always in need of
donations, such as money, food, or your time as a volunteer.

Who We Are
We are a city-run shelter that handles animals within the
city limits of Rogers, Arkansas. We strive to provide
caring, competent, and professional assistance to the
animals and community. We have recently built a new facility
that will enable us to be of greater assistance to our
community and surrounding areas.
Adopting a friend
 Our adoption procedure is very simple. Find the perfect pet
that you can give a "forever home". Our staff will help
match your personality and needs to the pet that best suits
you and your family. Adoption cost is $61.00 per animal. This includes: micro chipping, vaccinations, and worming, a
free visit to the vet for a "wellness check" and the spaying
or neutering. Appointments are made (with the vet of your
choice) at time of adoption and $40 of your adoption fee is
accepted by local Veterinarians as payment for the
procedure. Animals that are already spayed and/ or neutered
at time of adoption go home the same day for $36.00. Those
animals going to the vet will be dropped off by shelter
staff on their appointment day.
The new owner will then pick
the animal up at the vet’s office after the procedure is
done.

 Other Services:
If you are put in a position where you can not keep your pet
and you live in Rogers, you can surrender your pet to the
animal shelter. You must call and make an appointment first. We do however encourage you to find a new owner by placing
ads in the local paper, on bulletin boards found at feed
stores and shopping centers, etc., as the shelter is limited
on space. If you decide to surrender your pet a fee is
required at time of drop off. Please do not drop your pet
off at the shelter without an appointment! Thank You
Friendly Reminder:
If you live in the city limits of Rogers, your pets must
have rabies tags and city tags on at all times. This is a
City ordinance and it helps Animal Control return dogs to
their homes safely.
To obtain the city license, the current rabies vaccination
certificate issued from the licensed veterinarian should be
presented to the Rogers Animal Shelter at 2935 W. Oak Street.
