The Heartland Pet Connection has been serving the homeless animals of South Central Nebraska since October of 2004. Our 5,000 square-foot facility provides a safe haven for lost and surrendered pets and an opportunity for many families to find the perfect companion. Animal Control is provided by the Hastings Police Department and the Adams County Sheriff's Department.

At the shelter, animals are cared for with compassion and kindness. The safety and health of these animals is a priority for staff and the many volunteers that work at the shelter. Each animal receives veterinarian care as well as necessary vaccinations and tests to ensure that it is in the best health before ever being put up for adoption. It is our goal to provide the best care possible for the homeless animals that need it the most.

Fundraising and education continues to play an important support role for the Heartland Pet Connection. Many fun and exciting programs and events are planned throughout the year that not only support the shelter financially, but provide a valuable service to citizens of all ages in the community.
