Pet LicensingCat and Dog Picture


As you may have heard, pet licensing services were transferred from the Humane Society to Kitsap County.  During this transition, we worked together to transfer your pet’s information from the Humane Society to the County, coordinating procedures between both entities and updating pet owners.

New item graphicPet Licensing Updates

Please note:  your canceled check is your receipt and pet tags are now permanent.

The tags listed on the renewal postcard for your pet are permanent-life tags. The tag number connects your pet to you in the pet licensing database. This link assures your pet will be reunited with you if it should stray or become lost. Replacement tags are available upon request.

Pet Owners who reside in Kitsap County Cities
Kitsap County only processes pet licenses for residents that live in unincorporated Kitsap County.  If you live in Bainbridge Island, Bremerton, Poulsbo, or Port Orchard, please contact your city for pet licensing information.

Please check your local city ordinance to determine licensing requirements within your city.
