ARE Animal Rescue operates two primary locations and several catteries inside of PetSmart stores.

​

Banning Animal Shelter houses all of our dogs, and supports the city of Banning with taking in stray animals of all kinds.

Hours: 10am-5pm

​

The Hemet location is the first location and primary HQ for cats.

Hours: 10am-5pm, closed on Tuesday

​

The cattery locations help support cat adoptions, and occasionally these PetSmart and Petco locations are used for weekend dog adoption events.

​

At select catteries, volunteers are available to help answer questions, allow meet and greets, and perform adoptions at specific times:

Oceanside PetSmart Cattery Volunteer Hours: Evenings, 6-8pm. Saturdays, 9-11am and 6-8pm. Sundays, 10am-11am and 4pm-7pm. Dog adoption events: Saturdays 11am-4pm

​

At other catteries, a store employee can assist you with your adoption after your application has been approved. Hours match that of the corresponding PetSmart/Petco.
