Reuniting Stray Animals with Owners
Animal Services works hard to match impounded and found animals to lost pet reports filed with the division. Many times, our staff is able to reunite animal owners with a missing pet before it ever makes it in to the shelter.
Animal Services also maintains an on line listing of all the animals currently in our shelter and owners looking for a lost pet are encouraged to check there daily. Because descriptions of animals may vary, however, it is important for the owners of lost pets to come into the shelter and look for their lost animal frequently.
Animal Services also provides a number of other resources and information to aid pet owners in finding a missing animal. For more information, check out our Lost and Found Animals page.
Is there a charge for this service?
Certain fees and fines may apply when reclaiming a pet which has been impounded at the shelter. These fees vary based on several criteria, including the type of animal, the number of times it has been impounded, how long it has been at the shelter before being reclaimed, and its spay / neuter status.
When and where is this service offered?
Impounded animals may be reclaimed from the Animal Services shelter Monday through Saturday during normal business hours.
