Pinellas County Animal Services News

Pinellas County Animal Services is getting ready to restart our Veterinary Voucher program on October 1 to assist low-income families with spay/neuter and obtaining core vaccines for their pets.  During our last budget session, the Board of County Commissioners not only voiced their support for this program but asked for more funding to be allocated to it.  With shelters and rescues at or over capacity, this is one of the most important, proactive steps we can take to make a difference and reduce unwanted, accidental litters.  

We are looking for more clinics who would like to partner with us to accept vouchers.  We have made the process as easy as possible, too! The pet family visits the shelter to obtain a voucher and pay for their Pinellas County license.  After that, they will reach out to your clinic to schedule an appointment.  Once the services are completed, you send the invoice to us for reimbursement. It’s a win-win! Your clinic is helping someone in need AND assisting in our mission to reduce pet overpopulation. You will also gain a new client by accepting our vouchers.

If you would like to join this program, please reach out to our Finance Team at: pcasfinance@pinellas.gov by 8/30/2025. Our team can also send a copy of the voucher and fee schedule for your review.

Thank you for your commitment to animal welfare and serving the pet families of Pinellas County!
