Pet registration
There is State Government legislation in place to ensure control and registration of dogs and cats in our community. The State Government also sets all of the registration fees associated with the control and registration of dogs and cats. The registration period for 1-year and 3-years expires on 31 October.
Each year from 1 June, new one-year pet registrations are half price. This registration is only valid through to 31 October, at which time it will be due for renewal.
The City of Stirling is responsible for enforcing and administering State Government legislation in our community. Registering and microchipping your dog makes it easier for our Rangers to help return your pet to you if they become lost.
When to register your pet
- Dogs aged over three months are required to be microchipped and registered
- Cats aged over six months must be registered, microchipped and sterilised.
Pet registration and renewal fees

You will need to have your pet's Animal Number to proceed. These details can be found on your pet's registration renewal or payment notice, or by contacting (08) 9205 8555.
Cats must be sterilised prior to registration and therefore, the unsterilised fees option only apply to dogs.
