    This mobile petting zoo was a unique experience. My family was impressed and the children loved it. From the very initial contact, I had pleasant interactions with staff/owners. I received responses within a reasonable time for all my questions and/or concerns. Prices were fair as well. Setup was quick and shut down efficient. Unfortunately, my 2 year old wasn't as excited as I hoped she would be but the memory of this day will last a lifetime. It was an epic event and so grateful that we could enjoy a covid-safe activity at our home. Highly recommend this activity and mobile zoo experience.

    Learning this to hold them.

    This was such a fun and unique experience for my daughters birthday party! I feel lucky I found them because they don't come up on a Yelp search for mobile petting zoo or pony rentals for some reason for me (probably because when I live) but they were great. Pros- They let the kids in with the animals and they can pet them all and hold them and just interact like crazy. A lot of kids are entertained for a long time. Set up was quick and tear down. They brought a shade tent. Price transparency and an easy to use website and booking process was great! Cons- It's definitely pricey especially if you need to pay the travel fee, and there aren't a lot of companies to choose from if it's out of budget. That being said I think the price is probably fair. The pony wasn't nearly as much of a hit with the kids as the petting zoo, next time I'd probably just do the petting zoo, who would have thought!

    We used Cricket's mobile petting zoo for the second time recently. The first time was in 2019 for our daughter's birthday, with the petting zoo and a bouncy house. This time we just opted for the petting zoo because we don't really have a good spot for a bouncy house any more. Both times were excellent experiences. Booking is fast and easy, and they were very responsive communicating through email. I can't remember who came in 2019, but this year Dwayne and Deborah (I'm sorry if I misspelled those) were the ones who came and they were very friendly. I feel like it's a great option as a theme since most kids of all ages enjoy animals. The chickens, rabbit, pig, etc seemed pretty content with all the attention. Set up and breakdown was fast and easy and left no marks in our lawn. Awesome job all in all!

    My daughter loves this place! Everyone was so friendly, and I would highly recommend for parties…read more This place is a wonderful thing to have in the community and I wish more of the kid places in the area were as amazing as this place.

    This is an amazing place!!…read more Plenty of parking and port-a-potties We came for unicorn day!! It was amazing! All the horses had beautiful horns and painted hair (like pastel chalk that does not hurt them). All animals are under the most wonderful care and we are given instructions on how to approach them and observe them. Amongst many things we saw a baby chick being hatched, baby bunnies, adult bunnies, donkeys, sheep's, horses, pigs, pony's, goats, doves, chickens, roosters, chicks and of course UNICORNS! Staff was out of this world helpful!! So sweet and kind. It was a hot day and they let my little nephew play in the clean water they had to cool off! We even got a tractor ride! They have a beautiful tree swing and so many cute picture spots! Pack a picnic (but be careful not to throw any food on the ground the animals each have specific diets and we wouldn't want them to eat anything that could hurt their stomachs). Also there is hand sanitizer but I would suggest bringing some soap and water if you want to wash your hands. Just ask for the best place to do that! They have a pretty Montessori style here. You're given help in approaching the animals and donkeys sheep and goats are sitting all around and you can walk around and pet them. There are brushes set aside for you to brush them too!! The more attention specific animals like the bigger bunnies were handled with the wonderful caregivers! Allowing people to hold the more socialized animals even! Also the unicorns were beautiful with flower leis and gorgeous horns! Absolutely a must to do for any birthday, field trip, or just a way to get kids used to animals in a wonderfully comfortable setting.

    Check their Facebook page first to make a reservation for a tour before going! I can only imagine…read morehow hard it'd be for one to drive past and see the AWWW GOATS!! and not want to pull in; however, to visit the Hand Me Down Zoo, one needs an appointment ... and it's totally worth every cent! :) Kerry, who owns the property, is like a Mom to these animals that she rescues, protects, cares for, fosters, and educates visitors about. She is clearly passionate about what she does, and her efforts should be greatly appreciated. Hand Me Down Zoo gives a home to unwanted animals including exotics too, and she let us know which of her animal friends were available, and if you follow their Facebook page, you can get updates on new critters and creatures. She started our tour promptly right after we met her spunky kangaroo (to our huge delight!), and began with a safety intro and background story. The full hour was super fun and informative, and ended with us having the opportunity to return to the goats out front. I can't say enough nice things about Kerry and what she's doing and the animals that we fell in love with.

    Randomly looking at a map one day and this popped up. Of course I had to look into it. You need an…read moreappointment to visit. Well worth the fee they ask! You get a private tour ( with about 15 people ) and walk around the entire place. Holy cow, the animals she has there are amazing! We got the story on each one, some fun facts, and a whole slew of other information about laws, and behavior and animal food and why these animals came to the zoo. So informative! So eye opening. Please be aware that the walk through could be a bit rough for the elderly or someone that does not walk well. Kids MUST be well behaved in order not to scare animals. There is a small gift shop as well. I think you should visit. The whole thing was about 1.5 hours. Very worth the time and price.
