If you have lost or found a pet in the community, please review all of the Anderson County Animal Care & Control service information below to try to help you find your pet.
Visit ACACC’s Facebook page to see if your lost pet is pictured. You may also call ACACC at (865) 264-6315 (the Animal Shelter) to see if a pet matching your pet’s description has been placed at the Animal Shelter.
ACACC’s Animal Shelter is located at 1480 Blockhouse Valley Road in Clinton. Please call the Animal Shelter at (865) 264-6315 to schedule a time to confirm your pet’s identity and/or reunite with your pet.
Because the Animal Shelter has limited staffing at this time, all visits for either animal surrender or lost pet pick must be scheduled in advance by calling the Shelter at (865) 264-6315, between the hours of 8:00 am and 5:00 pm, Monday-Friday. Appointments are made for the hours between 9:00 a.m. and 4:00 p.m.
For safety purposes, everyone will be escorted through our facility when looking for a lost pet.
All ACACC impounded animals are subject to fees established and authorized by Anderson County Resolution No. 15-10-556.
Fees are based on the number of calendar days boarded. All animals reclaimed will be charged a $20.00 apprehension fee plus a $10.00 per day board fee. We apologize that we do not have the capability at this time to accept credit cards.
Once an animal is reclaimed, any animal without proof of current Rabies vaccination will be given one (1) week to become current. Animal Care and Control will verify vaccination; failure to vaccinate will incur a Citation for no Rabies vaccination.
In addition to calling or arranging to visit the facility, please utilize our facebook page to locate your pet. Please note, not every animal in our care is listed online at all times. In addition, your description of your pet may vary from ACACC’s description displayed as ACACC is making our best guess at describing your pet. For instance, you may identify your pet as a “pit bull mix” and ACACC may identify your pet as a “boxer mix.”
In addition to checking with ACACC, it is beneficial to get the word out about your missing pet. Some suggestions:
Contact ACACC Officers. You may call the Animal Shelter number at 865-264-6315. Please note: the Animal Care & Control Department can be very busy and you may need to leave a message. Be sure to provide your name, and your contact information and your call will be returned.
