Adoptions by Appointment Only - Until Further Notice
As the impact of COVID-19 in Maine continues to change, we feel that it’s important to limit public gatherings in our space at KVHS. For this reason, effective immediately and until further notice we will be doing adoptions by appointment only. To view animals ready for adoption click here.
To make an appointment, please email customerservice@pethavenlane.org or call 626-3491.
We love our animals and this community. We are making every effort to provide the highest care to our animals while also practicing social distancing and cleaning and disinfecting our facility multiple times daily. Our team is at the shelter every day and remain dedicated to our
mission. We are grateful for your support.
Our Mission
We believe in creating a kinder community by nurturing the animal human bond. Our mission is to enrich lives by placing animals for adoption in loving homes where they can thrive on kindness and care. We support the potential in every animal by providing them with healing, hope and second chances.
