Reviews
"Very kid friendly. We did the tour and learned so about the facility and what it stands for. Got to pet some cats and pigs. We wanted to let some dogs but it's a different tour for that. We did go to Roxy's place and got to pet some dogs. Love this place and would recommend going or just donating!"
"The tours are the absolute best thing to do if you want to see how everything is done and get a lot of amazing information about animals! Not to mention you can take home anyone you fall in love with If you're ready for a new family member! Volunteering is hard work but well worth it. A great way to get a glimpse of the back end of the animal rescue industry!"
"Amazing place! Love they work they do! Volunteer and adopt if you can. Plus if you're visiting you can take a pet home just for one night. Also they offer a vegan buffet weekly for $5."
"Beautiful location for an animal sanctuary and what this organization has accomplished is both amazing and outstanding. Worth stopping for one of the tours and taking a look at what they have to offer, especially if you're in the market to adopt a furry friend. The campground and cottages looked inviting, although I did not stay there."
"I have been to Best Friends in Kanab Utah two times. There was 3 of us we stayed 3 days in one if their cottages. This place is is awesome. The staff was very friendly and helpful and loved the animals they were caring for. The whole place is very clean and it's all for the animals❤. It is a big place lots of acreage, beautiful landscape. The deer are everywhere. I volunteered with the cats. Love this place and I will be back. Thank You!"
