Lost and Found Pets

Losing or finding a pet can be a stressful experience. Here are some tips to help reunite lost pets with their owners.

Spay & Neuter

The Rancho Cucamonga Animal Center has several opportunities to assist our residents with spaying and neutering their pets.

Microchip Your Pet

The Rancho Cucamonga Animal Center offers microchipping services during normal business hours. No appointment is necessary.

We understand that life changes may result in having to rehome a family pet. We accept owner surrendered pets that belong to residents of Rancho Cucamonga. We also accept the surrender of pets that were previously adopted from our Animal Center. Both services are by appointment only.

Community Programs

Foster Program

Struggling with a long term commitment? Try fostering! We are always in need of foster homes for pets that are young, recovering from medical conditions, or need a little more behavior training prior to adoption.

Wildlife

Living With Coyotes

The Rancho Cucamonga Animal Center will assist residents with tips on humanely co-existing with coyotes. We will also respond to coyotes that are sick, injured, or are determined to be a public safety risk. The RC Animal Center is prohibited from trapping and relocating coyotes. Contact Field Services at (909)466-7387 ext. 1 for more information or assistance.

Keep Me Wild - Coyotes

Coyotes are smart adaptable canines that have learned to live comfortably along side people in residential neighborhoods. Coyotes play an important role in the ecosystem, helping to keep rodent populations under control. Relocating a problem coyote is not an option. You can help prevent human-coyote conflicts.

Coyote Hazing

Hazing is a method that uses deterrents to move an animal out of an area or discourages an undesirable behavior or activity. Hazing can help maintain coyotes’ fear of humans and deter them from neighborhood spaces such as backyards and playgrounds.

Keep Me Wild - Bears

The northern part of our City is home to the California Black Bear. Learn more on how you can bear proof your yard and co-exist with our wild neighbors.

Keep Me Wild - Mountain Lions

More than half of California is mountain lion habitat. Mountain lions generally exist wherever deer are found. They are solitary and elusive, and their nature is to avoid humans. Learn more on how to humanely co-exist with Mountain Lions.

Orphaned and Injured Wildlife

Rancho Cucamonga is home to a diverse population of wildlife. Please contact our Animal Center for assistance with orphaned or injured wildlife. You may also contact our partner, Sunshine Haven Wildlife Rescue, at (951)588-8811 or use the CA Dept. of Fish and Wildlife's list to find a licensed rehabilitation center near you.
