Due Date

Payment for your license is due within 30 days of the expiration of your current license. If you are licensing for the first time, the license is due upon obtaining a dog over the age of 4 months or upon moving into the City of Rocklin.

A late fee is added to the license fee if your license is not purchased by the due date. The late fee is $7.16 per month for an unaltered pet and $3.58 per month for a spayed or neutered pet.

License Term

Licenses must be purchased for the same period of time as the pet's rabies vaccination, and the license will expire on the same day that the dog's rabies vaccination expires. Rabies laws state that the license term cannot exceed the rabies expiration date.
