What to do if you find a stray in Calgary
- 1
If the pet seems safe to approach, check for a collar and tag
A visible phone number or tag is often the fastest path to reuniting the pet with their family.
- 2
Take a clear photo and note the exact location
Photos are the single biggest factor in matching a stray to a lost-pet listing.
- 3
Post the sighting on Lost.ca
One minute, no account required. Your post is visible to every owner searching Calgary.

Take the pet to a shelter or vet to scan for a microchip
Most shelters scan for free. Vets can also check the microchip registry.

If you can safely hold the pet, do so
Many owners aren't nearby to pick up immediately. If you can't hold them, at least mark where and when you saw them.
Shelters and rescues near Calgary
Contacting local shelters is one of the most important steps in reuniting a lost pet. Many shelters only hold stray animals for 72 hours, so call the ones nearest where your pet was last seen as soon as you can. Lost.ca partners with humane societies and shelters across Canada, and many now post the strays they take in on Lost.ca too, which is why owners often spot their pet in this feed before the shelter calls.
Lost pet resources in Calgary
Who to call in Calgary when a pet goes missing or is found: the municipal service that takes in strays, the found-animals list to check every day, and the local humane society.
Good to know: Cats and dogs found inside city limits go to the city Animal Services Centre (2201 Portland Street S.E.), not the Humane Society. Hold is 10 days with ID and 4 days without; an impound fee and daily keep fees apply.
