Lost Pets
Pet Pick-Up & Licensing Information
We love our furry friends, but there are a few things to keep in mind when it comes to lost pets around town:
Stray Cats
As of January 1, 2020, the City of Byron does not pick up stray or loose cats. If you find a cat and choose to capture it, you’ll be responsible for its care and next steps.
Loose Dogs
We do pick up loose dogs and hold them at our facility for up to five (5) days. During this time:- Fees will apply.
- Dogs cannot be claimed after business hours or on weekends/holidays. Please plan accordingly to retrieve your pet during designated hours.
Pet Licensing
All pets within the city must be licensed. We partner with PetHub to offer high-tech pet tags designed to help reunite pets with their owners more quickly.Each tag includes:
- A QR code on the back, which links to your pet’s online profile when scanned.
- Contact info for owners via the QR scan, phone number, or website on the tag.
- Bring a current rabies vaccination certificate.
- Tags are $25 per pet.

Food & Care Disclaimer
While your dog is with us, we’ll feed them with food available on-site. Please note:- We are not able to accommodate dietary restrictions or allergies during this period.
- Specialized care is not available, but we do our best to keep them comfortable.
