Devore Animal Shelter Quick Facts Before You Visit
Devore Animal Shelter is operated by San Bernardino County Animal Care. The county operates the Big Bear and Devore shelters and provides programs and services for unincorporated San Bernardino County and specific contract areas such as Big Bear Lake, Highland and Yucaipa. Devore Shelter specifically accepts animals from unincorporated county areas, including Highland and Yucaipa.
That service-area detail matters. A user in the City of San Bernardino, Chino, Chino Hills, Barstow, Ridgecrest, Yucca Valley, Twentynine Palms or another local jurisdiction may need a different animal services agency or shelter. Use the official county service area map or contact page before bringing an animal to the wrong facility.
