Field enforcement work encompasses multiple duties. Our officers enforce animal control ordinances such as leash laws and dog license violations. They pick up stray dogs in contracted municipalities. They respond to calls about dangerous dogs, dog and cat bites, and potential rabies exposure to dogs and cats.

MCACCs Field Services Department has contract agreements to provide a variety of services to many of the cities and towns in Maricopa County, as well as all unincorporated areas of Maricopa.

If you do see a stray dog or an animal bite, please complete a Service Request or contact us at (602) 506-PETS(7387).
