A microchip scan takes seconds and can bring a pet home the same day. We’ll scan any found pet for free — then below is every registry and local shelter you need to make the match.
First steps
Call your microchip registry and confirm your phone and address on file are current. File a lost report and visit the shelters below in person every couple of days — strays are held only a few days. Post to Petco Love Lost, PawBoost, and Nextdoor, and search close to home: dogs tend to travel into the wind, cats usually stay near where they slipped out.
Get it scanned for a microchip — bring it to us and we’ll scan for free, no appointment needed. Enter the chip number in the universal lookup below, or call the matching registry, and they’ll contact the owner. Also report the found pet to LA County Animal Care and post a “found” notice on Petco Love Lost and Nextdoor.
Microchip registries
A microchip only helps if it’s registered and your contact details are current. Not sure which company a chip belongs to? Start with the free universal lookup, then call the matching registry below.
Local shelters
If your pet is missing in the Inglewood area, these are the shelters to check — in person, every few days, since strays are held only a short time. Start with LA County, which serves Inglewood.
Shelter hours, phone numbers, and intake areas change — please call ahead to confirm before you go. Centinela Animal Hospital lists these as a community resource and is not affiliated with them.
