Pet Licensing

Now selling dog licenses for 2023

It is required by Island County to license your pet per code 6.08.020. Additionally, by licensing your pet, you improve the chances of getting your pet back should they become lost. It quickly identifies your pet to get him or her safely back to you. Licensing also lets people know that your pet is up-to-date on rabies vaccinations and can be safely handled and cared for as a rabies vaccination is required to license your pet. 2023 licenses will expire in December 2023, regardless of the month of purchase. 

WAIF sells Island County licenses for Whidbey Island residents only. We do not sell licenses for Camano Island residents. For city licenses (Oak Harbor, Coupeville, and Langley), see below for more information.
