Testimonials

Cheryl J.

I've had Tuttie (Tooty) for a week today. She's settling in really nice. I'm starting to see some of her personality and it's adorable. She's a lover girl for sure.

She's smart as she has learned some commands and aims to please. I want to thank Animal Friends for giving me a chance to give Tuttie a second chance. You guys are amazing. She's bringing a lot of joy to our house and we love her very much. She found her forever home.

I absolutely LOVE this place and what they're doing for these animals as well as those of us who come there to take one of these sweet babies to their forever home.

Setting up a meet and greet was a breeze, the facility was beautiful and I will never ever get another pet from anywhere except for here!!

Alexandra S.

We’ve gotten two of the sweetest cats from this rescue, and they are very good about making sure the animals go to the best fit home.

We adopted a 2-year old cat 6 months ago. I cannot say enough nice things about Animal Friends.

In addition to clinical history and recommendations, they included a behavioral assessment which proved to be accurate and pages of instructions for acclimatizing the new cat. Our Beanz has been a joy to our lives. Their fee was so low, we sent them a contribution.

Wonderful place! I took my chihuahua to the small dog socials and it really helped his anxiety! The staff and volunteers are great!

Got this beautiful girl today from Animal Friends. Everything was perfect. She's got her forever home thanks to them. Time to spoil her.

I cannot speak more highly of this animal shelter. The volunteers and staff are amazing and show a true love for their work that they do. The kennels are in great condition and every time I stop by it is very clean. I donate regularly because I am impressed by the work the organization does on a daily basis.

Animal friends is a fantastic organization the staff and the doctors there are top-notch. They really care for your pet.. they try their hardest to keep prices down and make vet care affordable for everyone. I just love it there.

Animal Friends is an amazing place and much needed in this area. The low cost/no cost services they provide such as spay/neuter, rabies shots, initial immunizations, disease testing, flea treatment, etc. are essential for the public and their pets.

The staff is amazing, efficient and always willing to take the extra time to address a client's questions/concerns. The facilities are clean and very well kept up.
I travel an hour and a half each way to bring my pets here and will not take them anywhere else!
