Marblehead Animal Control

Marblehead Animal Control is the Town of Marblehead's animal control function, operating out of 44 Village Street — not a private contractor a homeowner hires and pays. What exists on the open web is thin: a 3.7-star Google listing built on 9 ratings, one written review, and a Marblehead Chamber of Commerce membership listing. In that 2023 review, a resident described officers coming out after hours to free a raccoon trapped in a large trash bin. Animal control handles stray, injured, and nuisance wildlife calls as a municipal service. If what you need is licensed pest control — rodent exclusion, insect treatment, a wildlife removal contract with a warranty — that is a different kind of business, and this listing should not be read as one. For a loose dog, an injured animal, or wildlife in distress, contact the town directly.
