Immediately report a missing pet! Your pet may already be in the care of Animal Control but has not been processed for posting to the Lost/Found site. Arrange a time with Animal Control to physically view the animals in their care. It is often very difficult to be sure whether or not an animal matches a caller’s description. Search the City of Warrenton Facebook page to see photos and information on animals that have been processed and are held at the shelter. Check often! Animals come in daily, but are typically in shelter possession for only two weeks.

If you found a lost pet, contact Animal Control for pick up or to arrange a time for drop off at the shelter. 636-456-8707. After business hours, call Central Dispatch 636-456-7088

After Animal Control's regular business hours you can call Central Dispatch to report an animal at large 636-456-7088

To retrieve your pet, go to Animal Control and complete a release form. You will then go to City Hall to pay the fine(s). Once paid, return to Animal Control for your pet’s release.

Please note:
The City of Warrenton works closely with local animal rescue groups. In certain cases the needs of the animal necessitate the care of that animal be turned over to an approved Department of Agriculture rescue group and may not be available for adoption through the city. The well being of the animals in Animal Control’s care take precedence.
