Welcome to the
Spartanburg Humane Society

Serving Spartanburg County Since 1964. We offer a variety of programs and services for both pets and pet owners. Our mission remains focused on providing excellent shelter and care to homeless animals in need, the Spartanburg Humane Society has evolved to develop proactive strategies aimed at combating the root causes of substandard animal care and thousands of unwanted animals.

The Spartanburg Humane Society is located at 150 Dexter Road in Spartanburg, SC.  In 1964, a group of concerned citizens led by Mary Frances Grimes incorporated the Spartanburg Animal Welfare League (SAWL) to provide a humane method for managing the homeless animal population.  Today, the vision of Mrs. Grimes and the original board of directors is reflected in the pivotal increase in the “live release” rate and the reduction in the length of stay for each animal.

How can we help you?

  • Are you a member of the community curious about what the Spartanburg Humane Society is all about?
  • A loving home searching for your next best friend or newest addition to your family?
  • A supporter interested in learning more ways in which you can help?
  • An educator hoping to bring messages about responsible pet care in the your classroom?
  • A pet owner looking for assistance with ways to keep your animal in your home?
  • Or a pet lover interested in donating your time to animals at the SHS?

A little about us.

How can you help?

True to our mission statement, there are both reactive and proactive sides to the work we do at the Spartanburg Humane Society.  We respond to the needs of each and every animal who comes through our doors, while also working to keep pets and their people together through our community programs.

Help us spread the word about the many affordable and life-saving programs the SHS offers our community.  As more people utilize our services, fewer animals will come to us in need of shelter.

  • Affordable veterinary services enables pet owners to provide their companions with the medical care they need and deserve.
  • Humane Education programs share information on responsible care with current and future pet owners. . .

Numbers aren’t everything.

Statistics for Animals Sheltered at the Spartanburg Humane Society

The data below includes statistics from 2020 and 2021. We are happy to share our progress in reducing euthanasia for both dogs and cats.

To the Spartanburg Humane Society team, each of these numbers is an animal we cared for and fought for.  We celebrate each happy ending and mourn each lost life. And each of these outcomes motivates us to keep fighting harder.  Please join our efforts.  We encourage you to learn more about how you can become involved.
