Due to staffing shortages tied to the current COVID-19 situation in the area, as well as an ongoing difficulty in filling open vacancies, the Austin Animal Center has decided to temporarily close to the public on Sundays beginning January 23, 2022. During the Sunday closures, staff and volunteers will be onsite to provide care.
AAC will remain open for adoption and reclaim Monday through Saturday from 10 am to 6 pm, and for intake Monday through Friday from 10 am to 6 pm. Owners looking to reclaim a lost pet on Sundays can contact 311 and request an Animal Protection Officer.
AAC is hiring for several vacant positions. Interested candidates can apply through the City of Austin website.
