Pet License

By City Ordinance, all dogs and cats are required to have pet licenses. The biggest benefit of registering a pet with the City of Evanston is the increased chance of being reunited with your dog or cat, should it become lost. Applying for the license also serves as a reminder to renew your pet’s annual rabies vaccination, which could save your pet’s life.
