Mission Viejo Animal Services Center

About

Our mission is to protect and enhance the safety, health, and welfare of the animals and residents we serve.

Pets available

Adoption process

The adoption process begins with the completion of an Animal Adoption Application form. Applications can be completed at any time during and after the required stray holding period. NO APPLICATION will be approved for adoption until the animal has been held for the entire stray holding period. Approved staff will make every effort to review and approve application forms immediately after the animal is made available for adoption. The center will take applications until the best suitable match is made for each animal. If more than one application is taken, the first APPROVED applicant will be notified that the adoption has been approved. The remaining applicants (if any) will be notified that they were not the first application approved when the animal is picked up from our facility. If an application is denied, we encourage the applicant to continue looking for another adoptable pet. Staff is available to counsel and assist during this process.
