Lost pets

If you have lost your pet, there are a number of steps you can take to try to locate your animal:

contact the City on 9474 0777 to check if someone has found your pet, or report your animal as lost via the request form below
contact neighbouring Councils to check if your animal has been picked up
check with your neighbours and the local neighbourhood, including places your pet regularly visits, such as the park
check the lost and found pet pages on Facebook as many members of the public will take care of a pet they find wandering while looking for the owner
check with any nearby animal shelters or veterinarians
check the microchip database to make sure your contact details are correct and up-to-date. Some databases can also flag your animal as lost
if you have moved recently, you may want to check your previous address as your animal may have returned there; and
keep looking for several weeks. Sometimes people find animals and don't report to Council straight away.

If you have found an animal, please report via a Wandering and Found Animal request.

Your contact details are required when lodging this request to assist with reuniting pets with their owners.

To report your lost pet, raise the correct request type below. Please include your email address to assist with communications.
Your animal will be added to the Lost and Found Animal register and an officer will contact you should we find an animal matching your animal's description.
