Animal Care & Control helps ensure everyone's safe, healthy and peaceful enjoyment of Edmonton neighbourhoods.

Animal Care & Control Centre

Edmonton’s stray and lost pets are housed at the Animal Care & Control Centre. The facility takes care of animals until their rightful owners can be found or until they are transferred to an adoption agency.

Staff at the facility is trained to look after the health and well-being of all pets in our care by providing:

  • First aid and veterinary care for animals that come in with an injury
  • Quality food
  • Kennels that are cleaned and disinfected throughout each day
  • Vaccinations to protect from infection
  • Specialty care for unique pets by consulting with the Edmonton Reptile and Amphibian Society, Alberta Ferret Society, Wildlife Rehabilitation Society and others
