About Us

Who We Are

A community-funded, nonprofit 501(c)3 organization, Pope Memorial Humane Society – Cocheco Valley (PMHS-CV) is dedicated to providing compassionate, high-quality care and shelter for animals while fostering a more humane community through education and advocacy for animal welfare. PMHS-CV cares for over 1,000 animals each year, who enter our doors as strays, owner surrenders, or transports from other humane agencies in need of assistance. We also provide low-cost veterinary care to hundreds of owned pets every year to ensure owned animals can continue to thrive with their beloved families.

We Fulfill Our Mission By…

  • Placing unhoused animals into caring adoptive homes
  • Promoting the practice of spaying, neutering, and routine preventative veterinary care
  • Assisting with cruelty investigations and rescue
  • Raising awareness within the community about animal welfare
  • Encouraging volunteer involvement and support
  • Being an active voice and advocate for the safety, health, and wellbeing of animals
  • Serving as a comprehensive resource center for the community
