Where Are Found Pets in St Charles County Taken?
Lost and stray dogs and cats picked up in unincorporated St. Charles County and most municipalities are kenneled at St Charles County Pet Adoption Center.
The City of St. Peters (636-278-2255), City of O'Fallon (636-240-3200) and the City of Wentzville (636-327-5105) operate their own animal control units, but they house their recovered animals at the Pet Adoption Center.
The City of St. Charles (636-949-3395) operates its own animal control program and houses its animals at their facility.
Is Your Pet Lost?
If you have lost a pet, please call us at (636) 949-7387 and visit the Pet Adoption Center during business hours.
Although we do take phone calls, it is very important that you also visit the shelter in person! Our facility holds over 150 animals, and it is often very difficult to be sure whether or not an animal matches a caller's description.
