License in Person

Payment for your license is due on the expiration date of your current license. If you are licensing for the first time, you must purchase a license within 15 days of obtaining a pet over the age of 4 months or within 15 days of moving into Collier County.

A late fee is added to the license fee if your license is not purchased within 30 days of the due date. The late fee is $5.00.

You may license your pet in person at Collier County Domestic Animal Services at 7610 Davis Blvd in Naples. Please bring your pet’s rabies vaccination certificate and proof of spay/neuter (if applicable) with you.

1. A current rabies vaccination certificate is required if the rabies vaccination on file has expired. Please check your certificate for correct address and pet information.
2. Proof of spay/neuter, such as a signed statement from a veterinarian or an invoice for services, is required if the pet has been altered since the last licensing period and you are applying for the lower spayed/neutered license fee.
3. The pet’s date of birth is required to receive the Juvenile Pet fee for pets under 1 year of age.

Your paperwork will not be returned to you, so please retain a copy of your documents for your records.
