Love your pet? License them!

A pet license is precious metal. Without it, your lost cat or dog may never make it home.

A pet license helps fund the care and adoption of animals in our region, supports the protection of people and pets in the community, and is required by law.

You can license online or at any of dozens of in-person licensing locations throughout King County, including many QFC stores, city halls, vehicle licensing agencies, and more. Call 206-296-2712 for more information or email PetLicense@kingcounty.gov.
