Important Information about Scott County Humane Society:

Scott County Humane Society is not the Scott County Animal Shelter.  The humane society is a 501c(3) nonprofit and is operated by volunteers, a small staff, and Board of Directors committed to our mission. We work closely with the county-run shelter to assist homeless cats and dogs through foster-adoption and rescue programs run by the Scott County Humane Society.

Scott County Humane Society is not an intake facility for owner surrenders or for stray cats or dogs. We also do not provide any animal control services.

The Scott County Animal Shelter can be reached at 502-863-7897 and is located at:

1185 Cardinal Drive
Georgetown, KY 40324

Please contact the Scott County Animal Shelter if:

• You are a county resident and have a pet to surrender, or have found a stray or injured animal and need more information.
• You need animal control assistance.
• You need to report animal abuse.
• You need to file a missing pet report

We also encourage pet owners missing their pet to post flyers in the area where the pet went missing.  For more information on Lost and Found Pets, see the page under Programs. 

If your pets are not microchipped, please consider getting this lifesaving implant. Any stray animal brought to a shelter or to a veterinary clinic is scanned for a microchip. If your pet is microchipped and registered with your contact information, you will be able to reunite with your pet!  Ask your veterinarian today about microchipping.
