About

Juneau Animal Rescue's Mission:

To serve our community by promoting animal welfare and strengthening the animal-human bond.
To improve the lives of pets through education and protection.
To shelter stray, abandoned, and surrendered pets and find them loving homes.

Juneau Animal Rescue is a private, nonprofit animal shelter, located in Juneau, Alaska. JAR has cared for our community's animal population since 1963, providing services that both support our pet loving community and help generate income to further our mission.

Juneau Animal Rescue is an open admission shelter that rescues and receives owner-relinquished and stray domestic animals and cares for them until they are adopted to their forever homes. We provide animal control services and dog licensing for the City and Borough of Juneau. Our veterinary clinic provides vaccination, microchipping, and spay and neuter services for the public as well as the animals in our shelter. We also offer doggy daycare, boarding, and a self-service grooming facility. We are an authorized Hills Science Diet retailer and sell leashes, collars, harnesses, toys, and other pet necessities, along with high-quality JAR logo merchandise.
