Tours

The San Francisco SPCA offers tours of our facilities, starting at 250 Florida Street.  A tour provides an opportunity to learn about the services the SF SPCA offers, as well as see firsthand the hundreds of animals in need of permanent, loving homes.

• There is a monthly tour scheduled on the third Friday of every month 2:00 – 3:00 p.m. If you would like to come on this tour, please RSVP to tours@sfspca.org.  We will meet in Maddie’s Adoption Center at 250 Florida Street.
• If you are organizing a tour for a group, please follow these instructions:
  • If you are a donor to the San Francisco SPCA, please call 415-554-3029
  • If you are a member of the animal welfare community, please call 415-522-3520

In order to help us best serve the community, we have developed some tour guidelines:

• The minimum age for tour participants is 5 years old
• Tours are generally provided free of charge; however, monetary and in-kind donations are always appreciated. Click here to donate.
• For groups larger than 12 and those coordinated as part of a tour group, we need at least six weeks advance notice and there may be a per-person fee.
• Tours last from 45 minutes to an hour.
• Group chaperones must make appropriate arrangements for individuals with allergies.

If you want to schedule a larger group, please email tours@sfspca.org.

Please understand that a staff member or volunteer might not be available to provide a tour if you do not have an appointment or you want to come at a specific time. You are always welcome to visit the public areas of our shelter during regular business hours. View the Adoption Center hours.

We hope to see you soon!
