Companion Animal Rescue & Education- CARE

Our goal is to defend the rights of animals and people in Jefferson County by providing protection, assistance, and advocacy.

The Sevier County, Sevierville, Pittman Center, Pigeon Forge, and Gatlinburg areas of Tennessee are served by the non-profit, publicly operated Sevier Animal Care Center in Sevierville.

Friends of the Animal Shelter's mission is to comfort, care for, and shelter lost, abandoned, and unwanted animals. It also includes coordinating spay/neuter and other medical services for companion animals, offering programs and education to help reduce animal overpopulation, and helping homeless and neglected companion animals find loving homes.

Through animal law enforcement, pet wellness programs, sheltering, pet placement programs, and pet overpopulation prevention through sterilization and education, Newport Animal Control promotes public safety and animal care.

The MHHS is working toward a 92% saving rate target. To achieve no kill by 2025, we are collaborating with Best Friends and other shelters across the nation.

The Sevier County Humane Society's objective is to promote animal welfare, enhance the quality of life for animals, and end animal homelessness and suffering through outreach, spay/neuter services, and adoption programs.
