Animal Shelters

The Isle of Wight County Sheriff's Office is responsible for overseeing and staffing the Isle of Wight County Animal Services and related Animal Control operations.

The Heritage Humane Society acts as a loving custodian for stray and surrendered animals seeking permanent homes. We advocate for animal welfare, provide reasonably priced adoption services, and educate the public about humane animal care and treatment.

Our goal for these animals is a safe place that will offer them food, shelter, medical attention, rehabilitation, adoption opportunities, and most importantly, love. Poquoson Animal Welfare Sanctuary, Inc. is committed to the rescue and placement of abandoned, abused, and neglected cats in and around Poquoson, VA.

In Hampton, Virginia, there is a charity no-kill shelter for cats called The Cat Corner. We are entirely dependent on the kindness of our community and supporters and get no local or governmental assistance.

Early in 2016, Bobbie's Pit Bull Rescue & Sanctuary (BPRS) was established only for charity and educational goals. Our goal is to rescue "bully breed" dogs, such as American Pit Bull Terriers, Bull Terriers, American Staffordshire Terriers, Staffordshire Bull Terriers, American Bullies, American Bulldogs, and mixes thereof, rehabilitate them, and finally find them permanent homes. We also work with the regional county animal control and shelters to facilitate adoptions.

The Canine Rescue & Adoption Program is situated in Woodford, Virginia 22580 at 13340 Stonewall Jackson Rd. You can call Canine Rescue & Adoption Program at for cost, hours, and directions.

The Animal Control Division's goals are to ensure the peaceful coexistence of people and animals, to uphold the comprehensive animal laws of Stafford County and the Commonwealth of Virginia, to care for stray animals in our care at the pound humanely, and to inform Stafford residents about proper handling, bite prevention, rabies control, and emergency preparedness.

The Stafford SPCA is a 501(c)3 charity, no-kill organization with the mission of rescuing and enhancing the lives of local animals. We are dedicated to helping disadvantaged animals, enlightening the public, and ending animal abuse and abandonment.

Approval for 501c3 Non Profit. based in Fredericksburg, Virginia. Good day! We are a small group that helps canines on death row in VA (and soon more states) have a second chance.

The non-profit 501(c)(3) group Operation Hood Inc. spreads knowledge about why TNR (trap-neuter-return) is the most practical and compassionate solution to the problem of community cat overpopulation. We have created "The Fence," a safe haven, for neighborhood cats that were saved from Hood Drive in 2016. These kitties will receive daily care for the rest of their lives.
