Welcome to the Front Street Animal Shelter

About

The Front Street Animal Shelter serves the City of Sacramento to shelter lost and stray animals while enforcing local and state animal welfare laws. Our diverse range of adoption, volunteer, and public outreach programs reflect our commitment to improving animal welfare throughout our community.

traffice alert: street closure along Front Street

All-day event on Saturday, September 13 will ban vehicles on both lanes of the street

Limited access to the Front Street Animal Shelter

The California Auto Museum (located across the street from the Front Street Animal Shelter) will be hosting an event on Saturday, September 13. This will necessitate the closure of both lanes of Front Street. Vehicles will NOT be allowed on the street stretching from Broadway to U Street and will start at 9:00 am and last until 8:00 pm.

As a result, the shelter's parking lot will NOT be available to customers. The shelter will be open on Saturday, and customers may have access from the north end of Front Street at O Street (close to the Crocker Art Museum and just south of Old Sacramento).
