Animal Sheltering Services: Towns of Marana and Sahuarita

No, if you are a resident of either town and have found a stray pet in the towns of Marana or Sahuarita, there is no fee.

You do have a couple of options:

• Call the Animal Services phone number for your town to speak with a representative. They may be able to pick the animal up from you and reunite it with its owner, or bring it directly to HSSA main campus.

TOWN OF SAHUARITA Animal Services: 520-445-7877

• You may bring a stray pet to the Humane Society of Southern Arizona’s main campus at 635 West Roger Road, Tucson AZ 85705, between the hours of 9 a.m. - 4 p.m., Monday-Saturday and 12 p.m. - 5 p.m. on Sunday

First of all, be careful! Injured pets are often scared and confused and could unintentionally hurt the finder. Call the Animal Services Division for your town for assistance. The Humane Society of Southern Arizona is not a full service emergency clinic and both owns have Veterinarians who can assist with injured pets.

Yes. As a non-profit animal welfare agency, we do charge a nominal fee for admitting owned pets. The admission fee for a single pet is $45 and $75 for a litter. Upon admission, incoming pets will be vaccinated to boost their immunity and protect them from illnesses common to animals in kenneling environments.

More information on surrendering your pet to HSSA can be found here.

VACCINES:

My pet is due for a rabies vaccine:  Schedule an appointment with your veterinarian or visit any low cost vaccination service provider to get your pets’ vaccinations up to date.

LICENSING:

Licensing Renewal Information:  As of July 1, 2017, the towns of Marana and Sahuarita are offering licensing services for their residents.

We understand that pets get loose and the Humane Society of Southern Arizona wants to help get pets back home! While we do have a fee schedule, we are flexible with first time “offenders” (we mean the pet, not you!).

We will waive fees for pets that are current on licensing/vaccinations and are spayed or neutered.
