San Marcos Animal Services is dedicated to protecting the pets and people of the City of San Marcos. Our mission is to care for, protect and find quality homes for abandoned and neglected animals, aid in the reduction of pet overpopulation, and provide community education for the mutual benefit of animals and people.

The City of San Marcos Regional Animal Shelter is the stray animal open-intake facility for all of Hays County. This means we accept lost and owner surrendered animals from all cities within Hays County. Before surrendering an owned pet, please see our resources and information page.
To adopt, please email Animal Adoptions or call 512-805-2657 during the shelter's open hours.
For animal fostering, please email the Foster Program. For rescues, please email the Rescue Program.
If you have found a stray dog or cat, please call 512-805-2655 for resources to help get the pet back home, or check the Lost/Found page.
