Bloomington Animal Control is a contracted unit of the Bloomington Police Department, providing animal sheltering services for Richfield, Eden Prairie, and the Metropolitan Airport Commission. They respond to approximately 3,000 animal-related calls each year, impounding and releasing back to their owners nearly 600 domestic and non-domestic animals from Bloomington. In addition to their enforcement duties, the Animal Control Officers also prioritize educating youth on animal safety programs.
Bloomington Animal Control is responsible for enforcing state and local cruelty laws, responding to reports of neglect, unsanitary conditions, and aggressive animal behavior. They also assist with capturing bats for rabies testing and provide guidance on living with urban suburban wildlife. Lost and found animal reports can be made at any time, and they address issues such as excessive animal noise and restraining pets to ensure the safety and well-being of both animals and the community.
