The Hopatcong Animal Shelter is located at the corner of Durban Avenue and Flora Avenue. The Shelter is a place of positive transition for misplaced animals in Hopatcong. If you are looking for a pet, or willing to become a "furever" home, please call 973-601-3847. The adoption procedure is very easy and convenient. 

The Hopatcong Animal Shelter is under the direction of the Animal Control Officer, Gianna Di Matteo.

No appointment is necessary to adopt animals during our regular hours: 

Monday – Saturday: 9:00 am – 12:00 pm Closed on Sundays
You may call for an appointment if these hours are not convenient for you.
