Aliso Viejo’s animal services will be handled by Mission Viejo beginning Thursday
When the clock strikes midnight Wednesday, the City of Mission Viejo will officially begin handling animal services for Aliso Viejo. The agreement, which the cities approved earlier this year to begin Jan. 1, includes Aliso Viejo transferring its animal care services from Orange County to Mission Viejo, joining Laguna Niguel as a contract city. The move is part of an effort to improve animal-related services for residents and their pets in these South County cities.
Mission Viejo operates a pro-humane shelter and has a tremendous adoption rate. Stray animals are cared for until they are reunited with their owners or until they can be placed in new permanent homes. The shelter provides an animal adoption program that includes the screening and review of an individual adoption application to ensure responsible and long-term homes for the animals in their care.
Mission Viejo’s Animal Shelter, located at 28095 Hillcrest, will provide Aliso Viejo residents with pet licensing, patrol, adoption and shelter services.
For information about Mission Viejo’s Animal Control services, including license information, contact the shelter at 949-470-3045. The city has also added an “Animal Shelter” link to its Web site at www.cityofalisoviejo.com.
