Many residents may not know that the City of Ottawa requires that cat and dog owners register their pets. Registering your pet ensures that the City has the necessary information to help reunite you with your pet if it ever becomes lost. Pet registrations must be renewed on an annual basis.
You can manage your pet registrations and access expanded service options online through My ServiceOttawa, including:
- Create new pet registrations
- Renew existing pet registrations
- Update and change information to existing pet registrations (e.g., new mailing address, phone number, etc.)
- Request replacement identification tags
- Pay fees directly through ottawa.ca (MasterCard, VISA, American Express, Interac Online and Visa Debit.)
