Where to report and who to contact

👮

Stokesdale Police Department

Contact the Police Department

🏛️

Stokesdale Town Hall

Lost Pets in Stokesdale

If you've lost a cat or dog, community groups like Lost Pets of Surry and Stokes County share sightings on Facebook and coordinate with local animal control. Posting quickly and broadly matters, but it's exhausting to manage alone. file a priority lost pet report with ReportLost to speed up the reach.

🎯

Guilford County Sheriff (if applicable)

If your loss happened near Stokesdale but in unincorporated Guilford County, the Sheriff's Office handles reports. We generate the exact info to include so your report routes to the right jurisdiction.

⚠️ Spotted incorrect or outdated information? Let us know so we can review it.

Don't wait. Every hour matters.

The sooner you file a report, the sooner we notify local authorities and community channels. Once it's filed, your report enters our active search system and keeps working for you.

Report my lost item →

Losing something in Stokesdale means contacting multiple places: the local police, the town offices, Facebook groups, and shelter networks if it's a pet. Each channel works separately, none of them talk to each other, and the window for recovery closes fast if nobody picks up the phone right away.

ReportLost bundles all of that into one form. You describe your lost item once, and we make sure the Stokesdale Police Department, Town Hall, and active local community channels are notified. Better yet, your report doesn't stop searching after a few days. It stays active throughout your search period, automatically matching against new found reports and posts, so you can breathe and know the work is continuing.
