Kitsap Humane Society uses a walk-up and queue-based first-come, first-served adoption system.
Entry to the shelter is currently limited, and walk-ins are not permitted for general pet viewing.
To ensure the continued safety and well-being of staff members, volunteers, and the community, masks and social distancing are required on KHS property.
For information on our queue-based first-come, first-served adoption system, click on the “How to Adopt” icon.
If you are experiencing symptoms that could be related to COVID-19, we ask that you cancel your appointment and don’t come to the shelter while you are ill. For a list of symptoms, please visit the CDC’s website.

Superhero Adoptions
Superhero Adoption fees are higher than standard adoption fees and may be assigned to animals who are purebred or who are highly sought-after breeds. These special Superhero Adoption fees help Kitsap Humane Society provide care for other pets in need, such as those who come to us in need of medical treatment. An animal with a Superhero Adoption fee will have the fee designated in their adoption summary on the website.
Hidden Gems 
Have you found our Hidden Gems? Hidden Gems are animals who have been overlooked by other adopters and have a discounted adoption fee to help them find their forever homes. When animals have been available for adoption for over 30 days or if they have special housing requirements they will become one of our Hidden Gems. Every Hidden Gem has a half-price adoption fee. Be sure to walk through our kennels and look for the gem icon on the animal’s kennel card, or check in with our Customer Service team at the front desk to learn more.
