Overview

Rocklin Animal Control

Rocklin Police and Animal Control Officers want you and your pets to be good neighbors. Often a friendly warning or word of advice is all it takes.

Overview

Canine

The Canine Program began in the mid 1980’s as an asset to patrol in searching and locating fleeing felons, lost children and missing persons. The primary purpose of the canine unit is tracking, crowd control, officer protection, and as a backup to the canine officer when arresting combative subjects and bringing them under control. The canine unit has also been popular at public demonstrations.

Overview

Crime Prevention

The City of Rocklin has one of the lowest crime rates of any city of similar population in the state of California. Although there are several factors contributing to our low crime rate, Rocklin’s emphasis on crime prevention, community awareness and education, and community oriented policing and problem solving plays a key role.

Patrol

Services Provided

Patrol officers are the first responders to all emergency and most nonemergency requests for traffic enforcement, crime reports, vehicle accidents, disturbance/noise issues, suspicious persons, parking, and most problems involving public safety and community care-taking. Quick reaction is a valuable asset in deterring crimes and harmful activities and urges its citizens to report suspicious activity and information promptly.
