Commissioner Tom Evans has announced details on renewing dog and cat licenses for Nutley residents for 2025. License renewals are required in April for all dogs and cats aged seven months and over. Licenses expire on April 30th each year. Online applications and payments begin April 1, 2025 at www.nutleynj.org. Proof of rabies vaccination through February 2026 is required.

Licenses can be renewed daily between 8:30am and 4:00pm at the Municipal Clerk’s counter. After hours, envelopes can be dropped off in the Municipal drop box at Town Hall. Assistance with licensing will be available in person at the Nutley Fire House on April 22, 2025 from 4:00 PM to 7:30 PM, and at the Municipal Clerk’s Office on April 28th and 29th from 8:00 am to 8:00pm. Payments can be made online, by check or credit card. Cash is accepted only in-person at Town Hall at the Municipal Clerk’s counter or at the April 22 Fire House event. License fees are $15 for spayed/neutered pets and $18 for non-spayed/neutered pets; senior citizen rates are $12 for spayed/neutered pets and $15 for non-spayed/neutered pets. Applications can also be mailed to the Municipal Clerk at One Kennedy Drive, Nutley, NJ 07110 with a self-addressed, stamped envelope. Failure to license your pet would result in the issuance of a summons. For your convenience, a drop box is located on the side of Town Hall by the Park Oval.
