Took a private tour as part of my a Girl Scout events and we all had lots of fun. We were greeted by animals and were interacting with every animal throughout the entire way. It was an amazing experience for the girls!

This facility was educational and clean. We took a group of girl scouts. We enjoyed a walking tour with the guides. I would recommend visiting when the weather is nice. Reservations required. Tommy Turkey and Pepper Peacock joined as our guides. The girls loved seeing the animals.

This place is more than amazing!! The CARE Foundation we did the keeper for the day tour. So much hands on and interactive involvement.The best experience Ive ever had with a animal rescue. Recommended for 8 and up for the keeper for the day tour but they do offer other tours for different ages. The care and compassion the volunteers and owner have for the animals shows! We had so much fun ❤ i would recommend this for the whole family. Hands on and educational you cant beat that.

This place was amazing! Defiantely a go to because of their backround story for each and every animal and how they rescued them is remarkable. You can feel safe in knowing your money is going to a good place.

This place was wonderful! I took my learning group kids with their parents and everyone had a great time! The private tour is perfect for a covid friend adventure for any group or family. The animal interaction was fantastic and watching the big cats get fed was a favorite! My advice is wear tennis shoes and bring bug spray. Will definitely book again with my next class! Educational and fun!

Field Trip Day!!!!I highly recommend The Care Foundation tour. The wildlife sanctuary is only accessible by private tour. All the animals are well cared for and rescued from homes and businesses where they were unable to be cared for. They rely on help from volunteers and are passionate about the animals and providing education to the public. My kids had a great time, asked lots of questions, and learned so much!

Volunteering at the C.A.R.E. Foundation is one of the most rewarding things I have ever done in my life. This is a place to learn and grow. The animals are well cared for and loved. They are part of the family. This is my happy place. Uts such a beautiful feeling to watch each of the animals grow, learn new things, teach them, be taught, and care for them. I fall in love every time Im here and only wish that people would see them in the light that Kristin does. Her passion is inspiring. Thank you and Kelly so much for allowing me to be a part of something bigger than myself and to do what I love more than anything. Your passion is contagious and I cannot wait to come back. This place contains many animals from all walks of life and has a way of changing your perspective on exotic animals. I 💘 you all.

Great place! These people really care for these animals. I would highly recommend trying their jungle tour. Its a 2 hour guided tour and you get up close to tigers, other big cats and exotic animals. You even get to hold a few of them! Best part is the proceeds go towards helping all of these wonderful animals, most of which were rescued from horrible situations.

I took a red-tailed hawk in and they euthanized it just because the tips of its wings was damaged I think they should have called me I would have cared for the bird for the rest of its life

Review №47

The love that the staff and volunteers here is very evident. It is sad that so many animals are abandoned, mistreated and exploited. The facility isnt an updated commercial endeavor, but sustained through donations and the kindness of its volunteers. There is a tragic story behind each of the animals here, but they are recovering in safety.
