The York County SPCA is dedicated to providing long-term human and animal services to residents of York County through programs that find permanent, loving homes for displaced and stray animals, help control animal population growth, investigate and prosecute cruelty offenders, and educate the general public about animal wellness and safety.
We are open to the public on Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. During those hours, the community is welcome to come into the shelter and browse adoptable animals. We will continue to operate by appointment only for adoptions, surrenders, and lifetime licensing. Adoption applications will continue to be processed online. The best way for the public to adopt is to check out available animals either online or during visiting hours (Tuesday - Thursday 10a.m.-2p.m.), and then submit an adoption application online. Once an adoption application is approved, a YCSPCA staff member will schedule a meet between that pet and the potential adopter. Application approval takes approximately 3-4 business days. If you are unable to complete the form online, please call 717-764-6109 so a time can be scheduled for you to complete the application at the shelter.
