So tell me why when I showed up with a stray, they claimed they weren't taking in strays and "we've never accepted cats". I'm sorry? I've been using San Gabriel Humane Society's services for more than 40 years. Yes, they've taken in adoptable strays from me. I understand they're under new management now but to lie to me and not accept strays when your social media and the sign right outside says you do? WTF. Thanks for nothing

A lovely women answered the phone and was very pleasant to talk to. I came in and dropped it off and they were very grateful. Even asked if I needed help. The front office was clean and organized. I didn't go to the back to see the animals because if I did, I would have rescued another pet. Don't shop, please adopt!

So happy I found a local self serve pet wash. Took my pug in yesterday and my frenchie today…read more Javier is the best! He's attentive and considerate. Made sure the bath was elevated for ease as my dogs are small. Even warned us of a German Shepard getting blow dried before we got started. They've got all the amenities, from towels, shampoo & conditioner (you're welcome to bring your own) and a variety of deshedding brushes. A literal pet spaw! Today was a different experience, everything was great till the very end. There was a groomer there and I asked if they can do a nail trim, (which I usually do myself or regularly at the vet) My frenchie is a 4 yr old 18lbs dog... a little bit on the hyper side but the groomer lost his patience and had an unnecessary attitude. To the point of claiming my frenchie 'bit him' (He does NOT bite) I was there, my daughter was there, and Javier was there if he needed help to get him settled we were all there. At the same time, if you CAN'T do it, just say so and keep it professional. I mentioned to Javier that I regularly take him to the vet for a nail trim and the groomer's words were "there's also plenty of vet techs to assist in holding him down!" That was unnecessary banter and again if you CAN'T do it, just say so and keep it professional. Aside from that, I WILL def be returning regularly for self service wash because everything else is great! Javier called back to apologize for today's experience so it def shows he cares. 10/10 recommend.

From start to finish, this was such an amazing experience! From the moment I called and spoke with…read moreJavier, to booking the appointment, to meeting Ivan everything was seamless and professional. They took such great care of my dog. Not only was the pricing very reasonable, but my dog came out looking SO good, clean, fluffy, smells amazing, and honestly looking a little too cute! You can tell they genuinely care. They even pointed out things I hadn't noticed as an owner and took the time to educate me, which I really appreciated! I'm beyond happy with the service and will definitely be coming back regularly. Highly recommend!

2025 left me devastated after my two fur babies passed away. I took my time grieving as loosing any…read morepet is difficult. Which is even harder to do when Instagram algorithms keep showing you all the urgent dogs who are at risk for euthanasia. Well it finally worked because I finally decided to drive down to the shelter just to "look." It was so heartbreaking to see so many pets begging for affection and love. What made it even worse was only being able to save one. So how does one choose? Personally, I look for the ones who have been there the longest, the ones who have been returned, and the ones who haven't been networked. Basically the ones that are first to be euthanized. While the shelter provides me their assessment, I have found that it is not always accurate. Which is why doing a meet and greet in the play area is critical in making your own assessment of the dog. The meet and greet is key in planning for what kind of training and schedule the dog will need. I never assume that the dog will be perfect in every way as soon as I bring him or her home. Which is why I plan meticulously on how to successfully integrate this new family member into our lives. Being a veteran with PTSD helps me understand how difficult it is to go from chaos to being home safe again. Which is why patience is important to give the dog as much time as they need to decompress. Then I bring over the dog trainer to give me their behavioral assessment so we can get to work. So who's the lucky dog? None other than a dog I affectionately call Harry because when I first saw him he was behind bars and was underweight. It made me think of that scene from Harry Potter where Ron was telling his mom that Harry was being starved and had bars on his windows. Officially, we named him Dodger formerly known as Zeus! He was returned for not getting along with another dog. That may be true for that previous owner, but so far that has not been my experience. Especially because I did slow introductions and continue to separate as well as supervise any and all interactions. One thing to understand about the adoption process is that they are surrendered for numerous reasons. Owner died, having a baby, no time, bad behavior, homeless, can't afford them, etc. That's okay it happens. If you are new to adopting pets consider fostering first so you can be fully supported before making it official. Or even volunteer if you simply are not ready. Now that I'm an empty nester and after loosing my fur baby I was ready to open my heart to a dog who needed a home. I have all the time in the world to help him thrive and he truly is the best. If you have the space and need a companion, please consider fostering or adopting. So many wonderful animals are euthanized because there's no space. Take the drive down to the shelter and "look." I'm so glad I did. The thought of my dog being euthanized because he had zero interest breaks my heart. My mornings went from depressing starts to so much love from a dog affectionately staring at me from his dog bed. My lonely days are filled with laughter and joy from all the silly goofy antics. Teaching him how to trust again after what he has been through has been healing for the both of us. We make each other feel safe and I am incredibly thankful for him. We saved each other. Thank you to all the volunteers and staff who do their best. This job is certainly not easy, but I'm grateful for you all.

Sadly nothing for us exotics owners (many such cases), but my brother does have a cat at home so I got him some treats. I'd probably be more of a frequent customer if they were a bit closer but they have a decent selection of treats, toys, supplies, and standard food and litter.
