Keeping Pets + Animals

Dogs, Cats + Other Animals

All dogs, cats and other domesticated animals must be leashed and under control while in public areas. Owners must remove feces or waste left by their animals.

A person or household may have a combined total of domesticated dogs and cats of no more than four (4) as long as the total number for each type – dog or cat – does not exceed three (3).

Exception: Domesticated dogs providing services for the disabled shall be exempt from this restriction and shall not be considered when calculating the maximum number of lawful animals.

Licensing and Vaccinations: The City of Mission does not require pets to be licensed. Rabies vaccinations are required, and owners could be required to show proof.
