I could not have had a better experience than the one I had at Bideawee. I was looking at dogs on their website and set my sights on one in particular. I contacted them and answered some questions they had via email. Right away they scheduled a Zoom call with me so we could find out more about each other. Over the course of the call, the kind and caring staff member actually directed my attention away from the dog I was looking at and toward another dog. The staff member wanted to make sure both the dog and I had a perfect match. I really appreciated this level of care—the staff member was more concerned with everyone being a good fit rather than just getting a dog adopted. I’ve had Juliet home for three weeks now, and she is a perfect addition to our home and is already making all kinds of dog and human friends. Thanks, Bideawee!!

I fostered two young kittens with Bideawee and ended up adopting one! Their foster program is phenomenal -- they really care about their animals, providing medical care as soon as something comes up. They're also amazing when it comes to supporting foster volunteers and set you and your foster up for success. My kitten was a foster fail! She's incredibly sweet, and the adoption process was very easy. The shelter let me know that her sister had been adopted that morning (to my great joy and relief!), and gave me everything I needed to set my kitten up for success in the first week. The cherry on top — about 10 days after I brought her home, the shelter called to make sure she was healthy, happy, and settling in well. They asked specific health questions, too! That they called to check in on her, gave her most of her kitten shots + spayed her (saving me lots of money!), and went above and beyond to make sure she and her sister were happy and healthy shows that they put animals first. I would absolutely recommend adopting from Bideawee. Any animal that has passed through this organization has been loved and pampered so they can be their best self in their forever home!

Adopted our dog here and it was an excellent process. The fee was reasonable and they provided her with all her shots and spayed her. They were very upfront with any possible issues and followed up to see how she settled in. 10/10 would adopt here again.

Filled out an application for two kittens last night; received an email from Maylee this morning. She asked me for documents and then we had a phone call. Next 2 hours I’m home with my cats! The process was quick. Follow ups where friendly and professional. They knew what they were doing and it was awesome to adopt from them! I’ve been looking for adoption about 6 months now and I’ve been frustrated by the slow process or no answer from other shelters. This place is great I would definitely recommend it to my friends. Thank you guys

I had been trying to adopt a cat for weeks and had applied to multiple shelters in NYC, Long Island, and NJ but the matches always fell through. I realize that it’s hard for shelters to operate in the current pandemic-induced, WFH conditions but after dozens of applications submitted only to be told that the cat no longer was available or to be put on hold for days and THEN told that the cat was no longer available, I was definitely frustrated. Bideawee was different. Literally the day after submitting an application, one of their adoption counselors - Kerrie - contacted me. She was extremely receptive in discussing what I was looking for, and also very helpful when suggesting possible matches and each candidate cat’s personality. You can tell that they really know their animals. I was scheduled for an appointment the next day, went in and fell in love with my first choice, and took him home that very same day. If I had known adopting could be this efficient, I would’ve come here first. The appointment with the cat is laid back, really giving you time to interact with them, the application process is straightforward, and they provided me with an abundant amount of food to start. All of the staff were extremely friendly as well, not just Kerrie. Overall, a great experience and I cannot recommend Kerrie and this place enough. I got exactly what I was looking for, and the entire process from start to finish took less than 3 days.

I adopted Teemo from Bideawee in June 2019, since then. This little princess has been the center of my life, I love her so much. She was the last one remaining of her litter, I always wonder what happened to her siblings and where they are right now. The staff in Bideawee was very friendly and helpful, I appreciate all the works you have done for all these little angels. I have been to many centers in the city, Bideawee is still the best for me in my opinion. And for some of the bad reviews, I am not sure if the management is still at its peak right now at Bideawee but I am sure they are doing their best personally, and I don't think some of the bad reviews are fair for many people who worked hard to get Bideawee to where it is right now.
