Westerly Animal Shelter

Nikea and the ACOs at Westerly are amazing. Their love for the animals and helping them collectively on their journeys is apparent to anyone who walks through the door. Thank you to everyone at Westerly Animal Shelter & Control for showing up everyday as the voice these animals deserve. Although rescue is a tiring venture, some of us feel called by the animals themselves who know better than us, the difference we can make in their lives. ❤️

Fair price for spaying of my pup. Caring staff, great Vet Dr Moore, great place

The Staff is amazing here. The shelter is always clean. An outdoor fenced porch for the cats and several dog park pens make this shelter an excellent place for animals to await their fur-ever homes, courtesy of the Town, Stand Up for Animals and Volunteers. The public may use two of the three dog parks!

Absolutely amazing experience. We adopted a shy yet incredibly sweet dog about a month ago, and the process was amazing. They took amazing care of her to help bring her out of her shell, ensured her clean bill of health, and even gave her a bath when we decided to bring her home. River was found abandoned and terrified on a little island in the Pawcatuck River, and was rescued with great care by the animal control officer Art. Her timidness went away when she was around both him and Nikea, showing the great love and care shown to every animal in need at the shelter. Nikea was patient yet hopeful throughout our decision process, from when we initially met River to when we brought our senior dog Lucy to meet her. The excitement at the shelter as a whole when we ultimately decided to adopt he

Always helpful, they take wonderful care of the animals waiting for a home. Very thankful for the hard work they do
