Registering your Pet

Action:
Check the city you are going to if there are rules/regulations about registering your pet. You cannot claim these costs back. Please also be aware of the breeds that are banned in the province you are moving to, if any.

Info:
Some towns and cities require that pet owners (of cats and dogs) register their pet with the municipality. There is usually a cost associated with this. For example, the City of Ottawa requires that cat and dog owners register their pets. This ensures the City has the necessary information to help reunite you with your pet if it becomes lost. Pet registrations must be renewed on an annual basis.

Some of the cities we have exchange officers in:
Ottawa: Pet registration | City of Ottawa
Petawawa: Online Pet Licensing Program – The Town of Petawawa
Calgary: Pet licences and responsible pet ownership (calgary.ca)
Toronto: Pet Licensing – City of Toronto
Halifax: Dog ownership | Animal Services | Rules | Halifax | Halifax

Insuring your pet

Action:
Ask your predecessor and your new work colleagues for recommendations. They may be able to share pros and cons of various providers. We suggest you shop around, look at online reviews and information to make your own decision. Costs of general insurance for a variety of vet services and emergency treatments can vary from province to province, town to town, so please do your own research.

Info:
Pet Insurance is an individual decision. Please search the internet for the plan that suits your pet. Know what you are insuring your pet for – liability, health etc.
