New Kent Animal Control Shelter - Providence Forge Pet Shelter

The New Kent Sheriff’s Office Animal Control Unit is a component of the Sheriffs Office. The unit provides required services and public education relating to domesticated animals. The Animal Control Unit operates from the Animal Shelter located at the County Refuse Center on Olivet Church Road, State Route 618. Personnel assigned to this unit are Sworn Law Enforcement Officers. All of our Officers receive continual training specific to Animal Control to ensure a high quality of service to our citizens. The Animal Control Unit operates Monday through Saturday from 7AM to 5PM for calls for service. After hours services are provided in cases deemed as emergencies only. We can be reached by calling the Sheriff’s Office at (804) 966-9500. If you have an actual emergency involving an animal, please call 911. The Animal Shelter is staffed with a kennel attendant who handles adoptions and assists citizens. Shelter operation hours are Tuesday through Saturday 10AM to 4PM and is located at 6301 Olivet Church Road. The Animal Control Unit provides assistance in a wide variety of issues in dealing with domesticated animals. The majority of our time is spent handling stray animals or animals that are creating a nuisance. We do not handle wild animals unless the situation involves exposure with a potentially rabid animal. For wild animal situations you may contact the Virginia Department of Game and Inland Fisheries (DGIF). Eastern Equine Encephalitis information from the Virginia Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services is available at their website.
