Upon your registration, please ensure your pet is included. This enables the lodging staff to ensure you are in a pet-friendly room. If not, please go back and talk with the Reception Centre staff to include your pet in your registration. This also helps them identify additional resources that may be required for your pet.
If it is not possible to keep your pet with you, arrangements can be made to house it at the Grande Prairie Regional Pound or one of the commercial Boarding Kennels in the region. Boarding kennel fees will be your responsibility to pay.
Grande Prairie is an on-leash community, unless in one of the City’s dog parks or other designated off-leash areas. This means:
When off their owner’s property, all dogs must be on a leash (not more than 2 metres in length) unless the dog is in a designated Off-Leash Area.
When in designated Off-Leash Areas https://cityofgp.com/parks-recreation/parks-trails, dog owners shall ensure their dog is under control at all times. This means the dog is within the owner’s sight and responds to voice or sound commands.
Cats are best kept inside a secure yard on your property(hotel room / camping unit). Cat owners are required to make sure their pet does not wander onto other people’s property.
