Romeoville Humane Society, Inc. is a no-kill, non-profit 501(3)c animal shelter dedicated to enriching the lives of animals in our community through dedicated rescue and adoption services. Romeoville Humane Society provides resources and information to the public about the proper care and training of pets, how to recognize and report animal cruelty, how to help prevent animal over-population, and will provide assistance with locating lost pets.
It is very important to the Romeoville Humane Society that our rescued pets are the right match for your family. Our adoption process reflects this. First, we would like you to browse the animals we have for adoption. Please ask questions, as we are always here to help. If choosing a cat, consider the needs and characteristics of the different cat breeds. If choosing a dog, research the different breed types and traits. Make sure you choose a breed that is suitable to your lifestyle. Remember that all of our adoptable pets came to us for some unfortunate reason or another. No matter which pet you choose, there will be an adjustment period in your home. Avoid making that adjustment time more difficult by choosing a pet that is right for your lifestyle and environment. Once you have chosen the right pet for your family, please fill out one of our adoption applications. After we receive your application, our Adoption Coordinator will call your Veterinarian to verify that all of your current pets meet our requirement that they are up to date on their vaccines, and are spayed or neutered. Next, we schedule a visit with you and your family, typically at one of our local pet stores. Ideally, we would like to meet all family members to ensure that the pet you adopt is the right fit for everyone. We also want to make sure that your new pet will get along with your current pets. Finally, if the visit is successful, you will then fill out the adoption contract, pay the fee, and then welcome the pet into your home.
