Lost Pets

If an Animal Control Officer finds your pet, and your pet is wearing a current license tag on its collar, Animal Control will contact you. If another citizen finds your pet with its license tag, they will contact Sterling Heights Dispatch who will then contact you.

If your pet has been lost, Animal Services recommends that you visit the shelter to look for your pet at least every other day. Sheltering of strays for the City of Sterling Heights is provided by the Macomb County Animal Shelter. You may also contact Sterling Heights Animal Control at 586-446-2879 regarding your pet.
