I’ve had two great experiences with this shelter. The front desk staff are so sweet, and every volunteer is beyond incredible. We adopted Charlotte (shelter name was Luna) in April 2019. She has been such a blessing to our family. I got her “on sale” when the shelter was over crowded. We adopted Denver (shelter name was Poppi) on my birthday in May of this year. He has settled in nicely with our pack, and has been the best birthday present ever! Adopt don’t shop is by far the BEST!

Very friendly staff and the cats seemed content considering the circumstances. The adoption rate is very high, which is good. My family adopted our Nora last week and she is perfect!

A wonderful place for these lovely animals. I just adopted a cat from there, and it’s been a fantastic experience. The staff is caring, and it’s clear they genuinely want the best for every animal. I hope every animal here finds a loving new home soon.

The facility is hospitable yet professional. I was pleasantly surprised that only 3 cats out of the several occupants were still available for adoption (most of them had already found a new home). They obviously have a wonderful system implemented. Their approach of accessibility to where they do not require an appointment and allow for easy entry for visitation shows great effectiveness.

I went to adopt a dog here today. I found a sweet lab mix. ❤️ Lots of wonderful dogs and cats to adopt! The weather was super hot outside at 100 degrees. But the kennels were inside and very cooled with A/C and fans. The spaces where the dogs and cats were kept were cooler than the lobby. It was clean and the animals were very well cared for even though the shelter is at capacity! Staff was very friendly and helpful. I definitely recommend this shelter if you are looking to adopt a new pet!

I’ve been volunteering at the center for a few weeks and I can just say that the people at this center are 100% committed to helping the animals in their care find good homes and have a pleasant experience while they are in the shelter. The staff work very hard to keep them entertained, fed, walked, comfortable, clean, and cozy until they find their forever homes. I’m proud to say I volunteer here and give animals the second chance they deserve.
