Animal Control

About Us

The City of North Oaks' Animal Control Officer is Mario Lee.

Animal control services are focused on domestic animal issues. Animal Control does not remove wild animals, including bats, simply because they are on your property. Most cities in Ramsey County recommend the use of licensed professional pest control companies for removal of problem wildlife. Deputies and police officers do respond to public safety incidents involving injured or dangerous wildlife.

Our Services

The Animal Control Officer provides service to the contract communities of Arden Hills, Falcon Heights, Little Canada, North Oaks, Shoreview, Vadnais Heights, and White Bear Township.  

If you have concerns about animals that you cannot resolve yourself or by contacting your neighbors, contact Officer Lee.   

Lost pets in North Oaks are taken to the Animal Humane Society, located at 9785 Hudson Road, in Woodbury, MN for reunification. The phone number is 952-435-7738 or 952-HELP-PET.
