Animal Services

All animal-related complaints, investigations and licensing ordinance enforcement is handled by Animal Control/Community Service Worker Kristin Bohler of the Yorktown Police Department. CSW Bohler maintains records related to animal licenses and may capture and impound unlicensed stray animals. Please note that when the Community Service Worker is not on-duty, a Yorktown Police patrol officer will respond for any urgent animal-related complaint.

CSW Bohler may be reached by phone at (914) 962-4141 Ext. 309 or by e-mail at [email protected].

Every dog in New York State that is more than 4 months old must be licensed. A current rabies vaccination must be included when applying for a dog license and/or renewal.

Applications may be obtained from the Town Clerk’s office or downloaded below. Dog License Renewals may be completed online.
