Being an Animal Services Officer is more than just playing with puppies; it’s about keeping animals and the community safe.

Follow along with Lt. Harrington as she shows us what a typical day looks like — from following up with a recovering mom and her pups to rescuing a dog trapped in a dam.
These moments are just a glimpse into the wide range of work Animal Services provides to the community, including helping lost pets find their way home with microchips, offering low-cost vaccinations, and helping shelter animals find loving homes.
Learn more about the resources available for pets and their owners at the Animal Services website.
