Trenton Animal Shelter

I came back on 10/10/25 to pickup my new family member during adoption blitz. The staff is so friendly, respectful, and kind. Carlos explained all the details and gave my Brownies paperwork. The staff gave me a leash, collar and toy. A very nice place. The love and caring for these strays/lost pets/pets to be is shown in each associate there! Thank you!

Even though this animal shelter doesn’t normally take in wild animals, they were still incredibly helpful when I reached out about a sick raccoon. They gave guidance, showed genuine concern, and pointed me in the right direction to make sure the animal got the care it needed.

Absolutely terrible! My sister brought in 2 dogs to Trenton Animal Shelter today that she had found on Bernard St. and there was a female worker who was extremely unprofessional and disgusting, her name was either Lowgy or Lowby, the shelter refused to give us her name. She first implied that my sister was getting rid of these “old dogs” for new puppies. She yelled at them and said “you should have called us”, which multiple people , even myself, for 2 hours did with no assistance and no one answering the phone.

It is hard to put into words our positive experience at the Trenton Animal Shelter. We have found two dogs, adopted them about 8 years apart. Both dogs have had such a huge positive impact in our lives. Trenton Animal Rocks crew is amazing, they are with you even after you bring your new puppy home. Erica and Danielle have been there day and night for questions and concerns. This is a special place and the animals there deserve a good home. TAR does everything they can to make sure you and your new companion have a successful start to your journey. We couldn't be happier with our choice to go through TAR and the Trenton Animal Shelter. - Thank you sincerely TAR. You guys do "rock"!

I reached to acquire information about surrendering an two cats. They told me to reach out to a rescue, and when I asked for more detailed information as a google search can provide an array of options, they were short and it came off rude. So essentially, the customer service is why I'm giving this place a 1 star review. Maybe in person they're a lot nicer.
