Cat and dog licenses

If you have a dog or cat, you need a pet license. Licenses help us make sure pets in Somerville have valid rabies certificates. They also help us return your lost pet if it's found. You need to renew your license every year.

Report animal cruelty or abuse

If you suspect animal cruelty or abuse, contact the County Prosecutors office or the Police department.
