Brunswick County Animal Shelter

Defending all of God's animals and helping them find loving, lifelong homes.

We are a municipal animal shelter that provides care for pets and city residents in Emporia, Virginia.

The historic city of Petersburg, Virginia, is home to the open-door public shelter known as Petersburg Animal Care and Control. We welcome any animals that city residents need to bring to us. We collaborate with a variety of locations to promote our adoptable animals as widely as possible, including Petsmart and numerous websites and social media platforms.

According to the bylaws of the SPCA of Petersburg and Colonial Heights, VA, our objective is "to offer effective means for the prevention of animal cruelty within the two cities and adjacent areas."
