Camrose sits about 80 minutes southeast of Edmonton along Highway 13, surrounded by the rolling farmland of central Alberta. The city has roughly 21,000 people and is home to the University of Alberta Augustana campus. There is no dedicated adoption shelter inside Camrose. Camrose families work with Edmonton-area rescues that adopt across the region, plus occasional listings from Red Deer-area rescues to the west.
LocalPetFinder pulls live inventory from the Edmonton-area rescues into one place and refreshes regularly. Whether you live in Mirror Lake, Valleyview, Camrose East, West Park, or out toward Battle River County, browse the live list below and apply with the rescue directly. The dogs come fully vetted, spayed or neutered, and microchipped, and most Edmonton-area rescues will arrange video meet-and-greets first so you can screen a few dogs before making the drive.

How far is Camrose from Edmonton for an adoption appointment?
