Pet Owners

Disaster Preparedness

National humane organizations, law enforcement agencies, disaster response agencies, and many others encourage every pet owner to develop a personal disaster plan to implement in the event of an emergency.

Finding a Veterinarian

When choosing your family's veterinarian, use the same care and criteria that you would in selecting a physician or dentist for yourself and your family.

Finding Your Lost Pet

If a stray animal has identification (rabies tag or microchip), Peoria County Animal Protection Services notifies the owner immediately.

Landlord Information

Pet owners can be some of the best - and worst - tenants a landlord encounters. When pet owners go looking for a new home to lease or rent, they often encounter a litany of "no pets allowed."

Spaying & Neutering Pets

Spaying and neutering our animal friends is important and necessary for many reasons. More than 4,500 dogs and cats continue to arrive at PCAPS each year- most due to a lack of good homes.
