TIPS ON LOCATING A LOST PET
1. NOTIFY AND CHECK LOCAL SHELTERS
Call or visit the Palm Springs Animal Shelter if your pet was lost in or very near Palm Springs and/or the Coachella Valley Animal Campus (CVAC) if lost in another Coachella Valley city. Call or visit the shelter daily as it can take several days to weeks for a pet to end up in a shelter. Looking in person is the best way to ensure you are reunited with your pet.

If you see your lost pet on this list:
- Note the Animal Number and name we have given the pet.
- Call the Palm Springs Animal Shelter and ask to speak with our intake/pet retention coordinator as the pet may not be in the shelter but instead with the finder.
- If the intake/pet retention coordinator confirms the pet is in our shelter, please set up an appointment to visit our shelter during operating hours.
- Bring with you proof of guardianship of the pet (pet photos, vet records, tags, microchip number, license, etc.) and your valid driver’s license or government issued ID.
- Please be aware that there may be fees associated with the care provided during your pet’s stay at PSAS.
