I took my family there on the weekend after a friend's introduced this quaint little place to me. My family and I were able to get to know Kera, Ryan, and their sons. They were so pleasant to talk to & very accommodating of us not having a reservation. We have never had such an up close and personal experience with some of the species of animals they have there. They are doing such a good thing helping and rescuing these animals. I feel like we made friend's yesterday. Thank you guys! We highly recommend and we'll be back! I'll need my baby deer petting fix soon! 🤗
This place is absolutely amazing. Such a GREAT hidden gem in Lutz and run by the kindest family. Couldn't recommend it more.
Felt the need to review- enjoyed that much! Went to a birthday party there today. I have 5 children of varying ages-toddler to teen- and they all loved it! We have visited many farms, petting zoos, and rescues, and this one it notable for many reasons. The new owners are friendly, knowledgeable, and passionate and the atmosphere is relaxed- the kids could explore at their own pace. The children were able to feed and hold a great variety of animals, which they found very exciting. The animals were friendly and it felt safe there. I personally love that it is a rescue for unwanted/ uncared for animals of all types. My husband and I liked that we could see all of the kids, even if they were visiting different animals. Working bathroom and sink for handwashing and fun tire swing. Another plus- the new owners have plans for updates and expansions.We will without a doubt return and recommend to friends.
This is a great place to visit! Just make sure you call first... the name makes you think you can just show up. Definitely call. We have been here twice! It’s a lot of fun and a huge variety of animals. We got some sliced carrots and had a ton of fun feeding all the animals. And- we got to pet a cow! It was hilarious because we tried to pet it all nice (like you pet a horse/dog) but and the cow kept acting like “don’t pet me!” But then when he showed us to do it rough the cow was all about it. So funny. It’s a great place to visit! (Wear some boots!)
I took my 6 & 9 year old today. We had a blast. We loved how gentle the animals were. The family that runs it is amazing. They my my kids have free range of the place. We fully recommend Nanny's. We will definitely be going back real soon!! Make sure when you visit to bring extra carrots & animal crackers, other than what you bring to feed yourself, to leave with the family to continue to take care of these beautiful animals!! They could also use bales of hay, feed for cows, chickens, ducks, pigs, horses, deer, & birds. This family does some amazing work. But we all know it takes alot of $ to feed all these animals. They are fully run on donations & whatever money they make working. So help them keep their zoo going!! Please donate & have a blast as we did!!
I work in healthcare with senior citizens and have not been able to take my residents anywhere fun since March due to COVID. I took a group of my assisted living residents here and they loved it! It was a magical and safe experience! My residents are in powerchairs, wheelchairs, walkers and canes and they were able to visit with all the animals. The staff is so friendly and accommodating! Such a wonderful experience! This place is a rescue and all of the funds go to saving these animals!!!! Highly recommend!!!! Can't safe enough good things!! 10 stars!
