Contact information for key programs and services at this installation.
Policies and rules for shipping pets vary at each installation. It’s important to understand the regulations, prohibitions and laws at your new installation before moving with a pet. Below, you’ll find installation-specific details for registering, boarding and transporting your pet.
Temporary Lodging and Pets
There are limited Temporary Lodging Facility (TLF) units on Peterson SFB that allow for pets. When making lodging arrangements, ask for availability. There are no kennels available on base. However, there are numerous kennels in Colorado Springs. Pets will need to meet vaccination requirements of the boarding facility.
Please make reservations before arrival and check with your sponsor and MilitaryOneSource. If owners choose to stay in an off-base establishment to avoid kenneling their pets, they will not receive TLF reimbursement unless they have obtained a non-availability statement from TLF.
Renting and Pets
Many apartment communities do not allow pets. Those communities that allow pets may have restrictions as to the size, weight and breed of the pet and may charge pet rent in addition to a pet deposit. Please check all lease information carefully.
Licensing and Registration
Pet licensing in Colorado Springs is handled by the Humane Society of the Pikes Peak Region (719-473-1741.) If you are assigned quarters on-base, please note that the Humane Society of the Pikes Peak Region will not register your pet; Schriever Space Force Base does not fall under their jurisdiction.
Quarantines
There are no local pet quarantines.
