​About Us:
Lifeline of Galveston County is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization founded in 2020. We envision a future where our municipal animal shelters do not have to euthanize pets due to a lack of kennel space, and our community members have access to the resources they need to keep their pets healthy, happy, and at home. Our rapidly growing grassroots organization houses approximately 30-40 canines and felines at our Pet Adoption Center, offering a unique opportunity for job growth and major impact.

Lifeline of Galveston County is an equal opportunity employer. We celebrate diversity and are committed to creating an inclusive environment for all employees.
