How to adopt
If you’re 18 years or older, you can adopt a pet from our Animal Services Shelter. Adopting a pet gives it the security of a permanent home and the care it deserves.
All family or household members will need to be reachable by phone at the time of adoption.
What’s included
- Dogs and cats are spayed/neutered or have reduced spay/neuter fees
- Dogs and cats receive a first-year licence (at an additional cost)
- Dogs and cats come with a microchip implant, are dewormed and have received their first set of vaccinations (excluding rabies)

Can’t find a pet?
If you haven’t found the pet you’re looking for in the City’s Animal Services Shelter, try finding pets that are waiting to be rehomed.
