Don't let time slip away
The sooner you get the word out, the sooner someone might recognize your lost item or pet and get in touch. ReportLost makes it quick and simple, and then your search keeps going automatically.
Report my lost item →Losing something in Wasilla can feel overwhelming. Whether you left your phone at a downtown coffee shop, dropped your bracelet near a local store, or your dog wandered off from a park, the challenge is the same: you have to contact the police, check the animal shelter, scroll through Facebook groups, monitor local marketplaces, and keep doing it for weeks or months. Each agency has its own process, and there's no single place that connects them all.
ReportLost bridges that gap. One straightforward report, filed once, goes to all the channels that matter in Wasilla: law enforcement, the animal shelter network, lost pet communities, and active social channels. Then your report stays active in the background, continuously matched against new posts and found items across the region, so you can breathe. You've done your part, and we keep searching for a match while you move on.

Questions About Losing Something in Wasilla
How long will the Wasilla Police Department hold a lost item if I report it?
The WPD does not maintain a public lost & found database the way some larger police departments do. Items found by police are typically documented in a case file, and citizens are encouraged to call back with their case number or report details. If you report with ReportLost, we help ensure your description is logged and you receive guidance on follow-up steps. Check with the department directly at 907-352-5401 for specific retention policies.
How do I claim a lost pet from the Mat-Su Animal Shelter?
Call the Mat-Su Animal Shelter at 907-746-5500 during business hours to ask if your pet is there and arrange a pickup. They are located at 9470 E. Chanlyut Circle in Palmer. Have photos and identifying details ready. ReportLost ensures your missing pet is reported to the shelter and connected with local pet recovery networks so they know to watch for your description.
What if I lost something at the Anchorage airport but was traveling to or from Wasilla?
Contact the Ted Stevens Anchorage International Airport Lost & Found directly at 907-266-2623. They hold items for a reasonable period at their office on Level 1. Hours are Monday to Friday, 8 am to 12 pm and 1 pm to 4:30 pm. If you file with ReportLost, we'll make sure you have the exact contact info and what details to have ready.
Are there any local Facebook groups where people post found items besides lost pets?
Yes, community groups exist on Facebook, though they tend to be more active for lost pets. Check the main Wasilla community pages and neighborhood groups. ReportLost posts your lost item across relevant local channels so you don't have to monitor each group separately.
How quickly should I report a lost item or pet?
The sooner, the better. Reporting immediately increases the chance someone recognizes your item or pet while it's fresh in the community's mind. Once you report with ReportLost, the work starts right away, and your report stays active so you're not racing against a clock.
Is ReportLost.org official or does it replace reporting to the police?
ReportLost is an independent service, not a government agency. We don't replace the police, the animal shelter, or any official channel, but we streamline getting your report to them and keep your case active across all the places people look. Think of us as the bridge that makes sure you're covered everywhere at once, without the back-and-forth.
