Paws Crossed Animal Rescue

We had such an amazing experience adopting our sweet girl from Paws Crossed! The application was easy and super user friendly. The staff was so kind and helpful. They answered all of our questions and gave us as much time as we needed to decide on our pup. You can tell how each animal in their care is so loved. There were so many volunteers/staff walking and playing with the animals when we arrived. When we adopted our puppy, we were given so much helpful information and Paws Crossed has stayed in contact with us to make sure everything is going smoothly. I cannot recommend this rescue enough! Photos of our sweet girl attached ♥️🐾

My girlfriend adopted Aiden who became Georgie being rescued from Georgia. He was our light . He passed today 12/19 & he Is missed! We adopted him in May of 2011.. 😭

We had such an amazing experience at Paws Crossed! I could tell my puppy was loved and cared for while he was there prior to adopting him and the process of adoption was quick but thorough. We couldn’t be more grateful for our pup and this shelter! Highly recommend !

We had an awesome experience adopting our new puppy. Everyone was extremely helpful, patient and knowledgeable.They went over all home care. They also have so many beautiful dogs of all ages.We highly recommend Paws Crossed Animal Rescue in Elmsford NYEvan MeiskinDobbs Ferry, NYDecember 29,2024

I cannot say enough good things about this rescue! First of all, they were very easy to work with, which I really appreciated, as some rescues can be a bit intimidating in their applications and interviews. I felt very comfortable with each person I met during my visit to meet my new pup, Sheba/now Sunny. Everyone was very welcoming and also very knowledgeable, both staff and volunteers. The dog I adopted was very anxious and scared, so we couldnt really touch her at all during our meet and greet. But I received very good guidance from both Tamir, who handled the adoption, and also from Joe, a trainer at this facility, and everything worked out just fine.It was busy on a Saturday, in a good way... several dogs being walked, others being taken in and out of play/meet and greet areas, several people tending to and also visiting the cats. The facility is beautiful and clean. The animals are clearly very well cared for and loved by all, but the people who work and volunteer here... I have to say that they are the best part of all. I would definitely adopt from Paws Crossed again.

Paws Crossed is an incredible place to adopt a pet. My wife and I recently adopted a dog under the care and supervision of a great staff. Everyone was well informed about each animal that we considered adopting. It was an especially difficult time for us after having recently suffered the loss of our beloved dog.

Amazing place to adopt. The staff are warm, friendly and knowledgeable. You can tell how much they care for all of the dogs, cats, puppies and kittens. The whole facility is sparkling clean. They went over all of the information on best practices in transitioning your new family member(s), and are very willing to answer all questions. We adopted Benson and Captain and love them so much already. Definitely come to Paws Crossed Animal Rescue.

This is the best animal shelter I have come across. Great facilities, smooth application process, and the best part is their staff members. All of them are wonderful but a special thank you to Emily and Bella who made the adoption process easy, and even helped me for weeks after coordinating some follow up vet visits that my fur baby needed. They were responsive on email and phone, anwsered all my questions. They truly care about the pets they adopt out and are passionate in what they do. I cant thank the paws crossed team enough. “Manisia”, now Willow, is so happy in her home and she has brought me so much joy. Please consider adopting senior pets, mine is just a JOY! Thank you Paws Crossed, I highly reccomend you!!

So happy. What a magical place. 10/10 recommend.

Amazing experience! The wonderful and knowledgeable staff helped us find the perfect addition to our family 💕 their new facility is beyond cool, if youre looking to expand your fur family check them out

I visited Paws Crossed a few days after Christmas looking to adopt a cat. I was so impressed by the friendliness and professionalism of the entire staff, and also by the cleanliness and size of the actual facility. Sue showed us around and introduced us to Cora (whom I had asked about after seeing her picture on their website!) and I immediately fell in love. Cora was housed in a spacious, clean, and well equipped room with a small number of other cats. Sue provided us with plenty of information about Cora and was incredibly sweet, helpful, and all around wonderful to work with.Once I decided that Cora was the cat for me, I filled out an application up front. Tara immediately got to work calling vet and personal references, and quickly got my application approved. In under an hour, we were on our way home with the newest family member. The rescue sells very reasonably priced new & used pet carriers, beds, and litter boxes, so I was able to get everything I needed to get Cora started. Tara helped us pick out these items, and also threw in some toys, a stuffed animal, and a blanket that Cora particularly liked so that she would be more comfortable. A few days later, I had a question about Cora and received a quick response from Tara over e-mail.Overall, I had an amazing experience at Paws Crossed. The entire staff was so kind, and clearly had the best interest of the animals always in mind. I will definitely return to Paws Crossed next time I am looking to adopt! Thank you for running such a wonderful rescue organization - and special thanks to Sue and Tara for helping bring Cora into my life! I love her so much already :)

Was here a few months ago and I wanted to bring everyone home with me. :( The animals are clearly well loved and well taken care of, and the staff genuinely loves their babies. I can only extend my most sincere thanks for everyone at the shelter for doing Gods work with these poor animals. The facility is clean and well taken care of and the animals looked healthy and well looked after. Kudos to all of you.

Pompous obnoxious people. 2 home visits and a 8 page form to adopt. The egos at this place are unbelievable. please go to an aspca

Im so happy with my experience with Paws Crossed. They really did make you feel welcome, every staff member was extremely helpful answering every question and going as far as to cat-test a dog for me when I asked them to. They also were EXTREMELY transparent about each dogs medical history providing information which was such a relief because I never felt blindsided at any point. When I mentioned that I was interested in a puppy Ariel was super quick to introduce Pierre to me and from there I fell in love. The actual shelters set up is really amazing with multiple fenced areas to really see the dogs temperament in an off leash setting. You can tell everyone in the rescue really cares for these animals, especially when I was taking my new baby to the car, everyone congratulated me and really seemed happy that another dog was being adopted. 1000/10, if you are looking to adopt try apply here.

Initially, I was really pleased with Paws Crossed when we adopted our kitten from them in 2021. The process was smooth and the employees were extremely helpful and friendly.Im not so happy with my more recent experience at Paws Crossed. Im looking to add another dog to the family. In my current household I have 4 cats and a dog. I got pre-approved and emailed with questions about a particular dog and how she would be with cats. They cat tested her the next day and she did great, they tested another dog as well who also did fine. I went down there the following weekend only to find out the initial dog I was interested in was being adopted. I wasted an hour drive, but I get it, first come first serve.I emailed the following week about another dog. I was told she had a similar temperament and they could cat test her for me. They mentioned they thought it was going to go well since shes pretty laid back. I didnt get a response so I followed up. This person I havent communicated with, Tempestt then replies to the email thread telling me they dont cat test the dogs there. How can that be when the other dogs were cat tested by a different employee?Whats even more bothersome is many of the dogs on their website are listed as cat friendly when clearly this is false information, after all, supposedly they dont cat test there. I understand seeing how a dog reacts within a few minutes to cats is not a foolproof way of finding out and nothing is guarantee, but it certainly rules out dogs with strong prey drives or dogs that get too over-stimulated. The last thing Id ever want to do is return an animal to a shelter. I also dont want to put my own pets at risk gambling with a dog that I have no indication of their behavior just being in the presence of a cat.Im very disappointed in this shelter, especially after my great initial first experience. I do not recommend adopting a dog from this shelter if you have cats in your household. Adopting out a dog listed as cat friendly to a cat inclusive household without confirmation of their cat friendly behavior is extremely irresponsible and dangerous. For the safety of my pets, I will be adopting elsewhere.

Pawscrossed is a very special place. They love the animals and take great care to match them with the right families. They deserve all our support .Our beautiful puppy Betty is proof.

Paws Crossed is an amazing place. We spent the afternoon and found the most beautiful dog. Donna and Kiki were wonderful as well as the rest of the staff that keep this place safe for pets until they are adopted.We couldnt be happier.

My older son adopted a kitten ! We are all thrilled he found his forever home !!!!! He friendly loving n bring joys to the family. Everyone at paws crossed was caring n helpful and so kind n gave us All the info we needed !! Animals are so good for the soul !!!! People need to adopt never shop !!!! Good luck on ur renovation there ! Thank u all one happy family ❤️

A great bunch of people. Staff and volunteers alike. We have been looking for a dog for our family and they allowed us to meet and interact with their dogs and puppies. We visited several times and they were happy to let us interact and meet the animals. My new guy is settling in after the shock of coming to our home. I saw how every dog was walked... played with and cared for. A great operation and mission in Westchester county.

I got her back in 2015 after one of my cats passed. Her original name at the shelter was carne asada We renamed her to Sally. She is still with us today and will be 10 this year best decision of my life

Paws Crossed Animal Shelter provides a remarkably clean and inviting environment. The facilitys well-maintained spaces reflect their commitment to animal welfare and the staff is consistently welcoming, creating a positive atmosphere for potential adopters. I adopted two cats from Paws Crossed (one year apart), and the entire process was always so smooth and enjoyable. Its evident that the shelter prioritizes the well-being of both animals and adopters. Highly recommended for those seeking a caring and friendly environment to find their new furry companions!

Staff is very polite + friendly + helpful. Definitely recommend if looking for a new furry friend!

I highly recommend if your looking for an adoption. The staff are loving and committed to their work. I have noting but praise for them .

We wanted to adopt a dog for a while and we did a lot of research. We found Paws Crossed on the internet and unlike some other ones they were very approachable. They are taking really good care to the animals in there. Everything is clean and organized. The volunteers and the staff are amazing. They help us a lot when we got Beasley. Gave us all the information and the support we needed as new parents. Beasley is a rescue from a high kill shelter in Georgia. He was brought all the way up here to Westchester. He was really shy and scared when we first saw him. Now he is a happy, friendly and excited dog :) TheThank you Paws Crossed for letting us have little Beasley in our lives. Ever since we got him he brought such joy to our home.

Lovely, clean, fresh smelling facility. Intake and application both done by kiosk. The staff will speak with two character references before showing any dogs. Great outdoor walking area. The dogs seem relatively comfortable and will fed. The handlers seem to have a knowledge of each dog and a ton of advice to share. Glad I visited and spent time with some of their pups.

My fiancé and I adopted our dog Boyd (now Bentley) just a couple of days ago and he has been an absolute joy. He is thriving in his new environment and it feels like he was meant to be with us. I can’t thank Paws Crossed enough for giving us the most loving boy. The adoption process was so quick and easy. I can tell all of the staff love being there, and it was great to see several of them walking dogs and giving them love throughout our time there. All of our questions were answered, and they plan to check in with us as part of their protocol which shows how much they care about each and every one of their animals. I would recommend Paws Crossed to anyone looking for their forever furry companion.

I havent adopted a pup yet but I am REALLY hoping to. By far Paws Crossed has been the best experience Ive had with shelters. All the staff seem experienced with the animals and it is lovely to see. The best part for me was that they were extremely quick in reviewing the adoption application and calling all the references. They also allowed us to meet the dogs right away. They are so sweet!!! It has been a very smooth process so far. Hope I will bring home a puppy someday soon...!!

I went to paws crossed very recently. Initially the experience was great. We were able to see the entire collection of cats/dogs they had there after completing an application. Sue and another girl who’s name I can’t remember but had green hair were more then helpful, polite and friendly. They did everything they could to help get me approved as soon as possible and on the spot. Now the adoption process is on a first come first serve basis, which is well understood. After selecting a cat of our preference we stood in the room waiting with this particular cat. We were told that we could wait in the room with him as our application was getting processed. Here is where things took a turn. We were essentially kicked out of the room by Temist. We were told the cat was overwhelmed and uncomfortable, mind you the cat was purring with us and sleeping with us, but we did as were told and left the room. We then scrambled to get references on the phone (no more then 5-10 minutes). As we’re on the phone with references we were again told by Temist that the cat now belonged to somebody else. Again, I understand first come first serve basis and maybe our application was not submitted before someone else’s. Now I work in a profession where giving tough news to people is all about delivery. The conversation went something like “hey are you interested in “this cat”, to which the answer was yes. Then a two hand slap to the table and a point to another family and a “well they are going with someone else”. A simple sorry, however someone else’s application was processed before yours would have been more then enough. I want to reiterate that the issue is not with the news, more so the delivery of this news. I also again want to highlight the people that did help us, as they were understanding and helpful so HUGE thank you to those individuals. Unfortunately, I would not go back to be adopting here. I, in no way, want to discourage anybody from adopting, but I do want to express my experience here.

Paws crossed is an amazing facility that really loves and cares for the poor fur babies that need forever homes. They are wonderful and their hearts are in what they do.

Very friendly rescue center, prompt adoption process, Betsy is adjusting so well, we just love her so much

They are fantastic! My mom got Tobee there and they made the experience so easy when other places make it so difficult. My mom got the perfect pet for her and we couldnt be happier.

My gorgeous “panda” was love in first sight. He is a bright light in our life, thank you “paw crossed “We really happy that we found this love ball :)

What an AMAZING organization. These dogs are truly loved before their homes are found. In the hours we were here, they were constantly walked, played with, cleaned and CLEARLY loved. I would likeTo give a special shout out to Jenna who spent such incredible time with us. Her patience is a true testimony to her love of her position here! Her kindness, patience, and love of her job is a true testimony to this establishment. Thank you so very much for today’s visit … we will be back for sure!

We adopted a German Shepard mix puppy from here a while ago because my one and a half year old daughter loves dogs and I wanted to get her a new playmate. When I first brought Tortuga home, she instantly barked at the sight of my daughter and scared her greatly. So we kept Tortuga in the other room for a few days so that she would have some time to adjust to the new space and feel more comfortable. Whenever we tried to bring the puppy into the same room as her she would growl and stay back. In the last couple days we had her, I was bringing her outside of the room to leave out the front door and Tortuga lunged at my girl and bit her. And I know that it isn’t the shelters fault because how would they know that the dog would react like this so I brought the pup back to the shelter and requested a refund as I only had her for less than a week. They accepted the request which I really appreciated because I obviously could not keep her after she bit my daughter. Two months have passed and I go back to the shelter looking for a family cat. As soon as I walk into the trailer the employees stop and give me a look. I asked Emily, one of the employees if I could take a look at the available cats and she was very sweet and accommodating. Another one of the employees came up to me while I was taking a look and told me that they would not be able to approve my application just because it didn’t work out with Tortuga. I think that’s extremely unfair and unprofessional as it broke my heart to return the dog but had to to keep my daughter safe and out of harms way.

Excited to see the Newly minted Renovation. Same runs for the Dogsonly change was at the RegistrationArea. Dissapointed they couldnt addHeat or A/C. Trying to find a smaller dog then they had, no one approached us the whole time we were there to get our Feedback.

Everyone was so sweet while we were there, and we left with a sweet puppers! We didn’t ask enough questions while we were there (and didn’t know what questions to ask) but it all worked out❤️

Paws Crossed is the best animal rescue out there! The staff is extremely knowledgeable and helpful. The facilities are clean and the animals are well looked after. They do a great job of matching the pets with the right owner and make sure the babies go to a safe and loving forever home. Will definitely come back!! Great experience!!!

I cant express enough how incredible of an experience my boyfriend and I had with Paws Crossed. We had seen one of their dogs on pet finder and knew we had to go meet him. From the very beginning phone calls with some of their staff, you could already feel the warmth and care they truly do provide. We were able to visit Rocco and get all of the questions we had answered and spent some time with him and we already knew he was the one. Unfortunately we already had a vacation planned that week and we really didnt want him to get adopted by someone else. With the help of their staff, we were able to adopt him and board him there for a couple of days until we got back. This accommodation alleviated so much stress for us and we feel so lucky to have been able to work with this center. Its been only a few days with Rocco (now Leo) and hes been nothing but a bundle of joy and love. If youre looking for a smooth, helpful, and transparent experience this is the place for you. Thank you for our fur baby, Paws crossed!

Awesome place to adopt a ferry forever friend. Staff are awesome as well, kind, informative and friendly. I just took home my ferry forever friend Bizket! Hes kinda shy @this time, but Ill give him all the time he needs to feel safe and @home. Definitely recommend Paws Crossed Animal Rescue is looking to adopt a dog 🐶 or cat 🙀.

Terrible !!! Zero communication skills. I walk in filled out all paperwork and waited 2 months for response and received nothing. When we went back they straight lied to us saying they call and emailed, non of which happened. After that I witness another gentleman come in, watch as they lied to him about a dog. They had already adopted that dog out and this man spent time and money preparing his home for the dog not to mention he had to break his kids hearts. They didnt even apologize for anything. This is not how any respectful place of business operates. They totally disregard any responsibility. If they are so willing to lie to people ......what are they doing to the dogs. Remember dogs cant tell you whats happening behind closed doors 🤔

Paws Crossed was absolutely amazing throughout the entire process of me adopting my girl. Within three days, I applied, was pre-approved, and was able to walk in and meet all of the dogs (and even some not) on my list. When I saw Hazel (FKA Frittata) it was love at first sight and even though shes only been home for one day, shes settled amazingly and it was like she already knew she was home. I cant thank Paws Crossed enough for matching me up with my pretty girl!

What a fabulous place to adopt a cat or dog! The staff are all on point & all the animals are cared for abundantly. There is SO MUCH LOVE here. I just adopted 2 kittens today & friends of mine have been adopting & donating for years! The most trustworthy animal site I know!

Heartbroken is how I want to begin this review. We adopted our wonderful dog in April 2021 and in December 2021 we said goodbye to her. We found out in October that she had kidney issues and they progressively got worse. Rewind to adoption day, we were told that she had Lyme disease AFTER we signed the paperwork and were charged the fee, the dosing of her medicine wasnt even correct. Every month we were bringing her to the vet for something until we finally found out in October that she had kidney disease. When we contacted the shelter they sent us PAGES of her medical history, which was previously not disclosed to us. I would not recommend this shelter at all. My family is heartbroken over the loss of our dog.

Wonderful place, doing good work. No kill shelter. Clean shelter, friendly staff and volunteers, well fed and taken care of animals. Large selection of animals (fortunately or unfortunately), they take in animals from all around the country, including other districts and territories (Puerto Rico is at least one that I know of). Be a pal, adopt a pet today. Youll love your new animal just as much as they will appreciate a new loving home.

I love this place, I adopted a my beautiful tonic from paws. The staff was throw, friendly & knowledgeable. A great place , no kill animal shelter. If youre looking to adopt please check them out. They have sweet animals who need a forever home 🏡.

I would leave a 0 if possible. They waste peoples time. Emailed them the details of my pet and set up any appointment. Missed work and when I got there the vet said they couldn’t see my pet due to their age but the age was in the email. Can’t even read English these people, go elsewhere

Do NOT adopt from Paws Crossed Animal Rescue. They are withholding medical records from the cat that we adopted and here we are with a cat that is super sick. Because it wasn’t “pertinent” to her adoption we didn’t get the medical records that they had on her prior to us adopting the kitty. The staff was great until we called asking for more information if they had anything else on her and now they won’t give us the information. 🤦🏻‍♀️🤦🏻‍♀️ what a joke

Amazing costumer service! I got my puppy today and they handled everything so amazing especially with Covid! Everyone was so friendly and nice and welcoming! They helped us find the perfect pup for ya! Ariel was also so informative and was patient with us finding the perfect one!

Everyone that we worked with throughout the process was nice, caring and helpful. They have a very organized process and seem committed to making good matches. This is my first time adopting a pet, and anytime I consider another one in the future, I will do it with Paws Crossed!

Oh my, a bonafide animal shelter that cares for its animals, provides for them, and has a simple process for volunteering or adopting with fast responsive action on both fronts. Unlike other NY shelters they wont mess around with making it so hard to to give an animal a good home that people give up and go to breeders instead. No theyre caring and optimize for animals placed in adoption.

This place is wonderful. I got my cat here when she was a baby and they have went above and beyond to ensure her well being. They are caring, responsible, and overall a great facility. Highly recommend to anyone looking to adopt.

A wonderful experience.A great place . People who work there are kind, understanding and extremely patient. We adopted a lovely girl Sally (previously known as Birdie).If youre looking to adopt please check them out. They have sweet animals who need a forever home 🏡

Kennels were clean and didnt smell. Dogs looked clean, healthy, and well taken care of.Out of 25 or so dogs only 2 or 3 were barking, all others looked content/relaxed in their kennels. Staff and volunteers were constantly walking several different dogs one at a time. Friendly staff people.

This place is awesome. They take great care of the animals, contribute to the community in terms of Education, reading to Rover, and volunteer programs. The staff is great, and all of the animals are truly loved. If youre thinking about adopting, this is the place to go!

Such an amazing rescue !!!! We got 2 dogs from there 6 months ago and I was amazed at the dedication and love of the volunteers who run this place. If you cant rescue a dog or a cat please consider donating to them, they also have an Amazon wish list with things they really need !! Lets help them keep helping animals !

My family loves Paws Crossed. We wanted to see several dogs but were only able to see one. The others were getting Behavior Training. It sounds like a bad thing but its not! Im so happy that they care enough about these dogs to give them special attention like that. I particularly liked seeing the setup. The dogs all have an indoor area and an area that opens to a big lawn. You can see them from the fence - we actually wanted to see a couple up close just from observing them this way. I also like the play areas they have set up. We werent allowed indoors because of Covid precautions, which is also good. The other good thing is that they are allowing volunteers to come in and walk/play with the dogs. And, oh yeah! We ended up taking that dog home! They held a detailed information session with us, including the rest of his heartworm medicine, a no-charge follow up for that, a 30 day trial of Trupanion and lots of information about our dog.

Contacted them for information in how to adopt a pet. I got a quick response to my inquiry and staff was friendly. Yes, it does get pretty hectic at the shelter bc of all the families and ppl interested in adopting or see the pets available. Animals look happy and well cared for. Animals interact with the staff and seemed comfortable with their caretakers. Overall, Im satisfied with the attention received from them and happy for the care they provide for pets in need. And yes...we got to adopt a beatiful kitten...LUNA MOON

What a great organization! The people here truly care about the animals. Thank you Kiki for all your help and patience, you helped me find the perfect doggo, Honey now named Sunshine. She brings light to our home. We are so happy and Sunshine is already adjusting happily to her furever home! The only con was that after adopting and paying a couple hundred dollars for your pet youd think you get a simple leash and collar but you have to pay for it yourself and the goodie bag they gave us was a used up bag with two toys inside. One toy looked like it was chewed on already. I found that to be pretty cheap.

Super clean shelter. Friendly, helpful staff. Adorable pups. What more could you ask for? We adopted a beautiful pup for my adult daughter who couldnt be happier with her choice. 5 stars

One of the cleanest well put together shelters. Staff is wonderful and friendly and make adopting a dog fast and easy. Very organized and knowledgeable about pet adoptions and matching the right pet personality with potential pet parents.

I have to speake the truth with out any discrimination against nobody. I put an application to adopt a cat. I came today at 12:30 and signed all the paper and paid $175 for the can. Also I was forced to buy a pet carrier for $35. When I was handed her paper, I was told that the cat is due for her rabie shot. I simply said I thought all the pets in this shelter are up to date with their shots according to the website. I was informed that the shelter is not required by the law to give their pet the rabie shot. I said okay,” can I have a paper from you guys stating that?” They gave me a phone Number of a person to call. I took the number however theSupervisor stated that my demeanor made her feel as if she was a liar. I stated that I apologize that you felt that way however I have the right as a customer who paid $175 to ask for the right information. I did not accuse nobody of lying or anything else. So the supervisor stated that she is not feeling comfortable with me adopting the cat. I don’t understand why. Is it because I asked for the right info?! Or is it because I was looking for honesty?! This is not professional at all.

We love our Nuka 🥰

Great rescue. Super helpful and they knew the dogs so well! Didnt rush us through even though it was pretty busy on a saturday. Highly suggest if your looking for your new best friend

Adopted 2 dogs from here when they were puppies one when I was 9 with my mom a shiba inu mix and then 21 a chihuahua. The older one has since passed but best dogs ever. Healthy as can be our dogs always lived a little longer then their breed should. Its so much better to rescue an animal.

Very nice pet rescue, pets are well taken care of. Clean and safe. Lots of pets to adopt.

The staff was very friendly and helpful. I had a great time meeting the dogs. I am happy that I choose to come there and adopt a new family member.

Such a nice place ... lovely animals looking for forever homes ... i brought a whole bunch of bath towels for donation... they can always use them... dont buy your next cat or dog from a breeder .. adopt a forever pet ... you will be glad you did

Friendly staff. Calm dogs. They get walked numerous times a day. Clean. Nice renovation. Dogs from the south. Adorable.

Best animal shelter in Westchester. No kill shelter, the staff really cares about their animals and will patiently help with all adoptions.

Very friendly and helpful. Sent an email to Gov. Cuomo asking him to help people of New York to be allowed to have pets where they live. Especially in Westchester County. Send your emails too.

Very caring people. The only rescue organization I contacted that had a system in place for prospective adopters. They assigned a number after they approved my application. Most of the others didnt follow up at all.

The staff was pleasant and welcoming. Did a through walk around showing me the dogs that are available. It was my first experience and a very good one.

Went there to donate and possibly help volunteer. Honestly great staff and the animals are well cared for. Off the beaten path but its a great place to adopt. Go see for yourself...

It was an absolutely great place but their adoption process was a bit confusing and daunting. Felt almost as if they secretly thought we were not the right fit so we went to the SPCA instead.

I visited paws crossed animal rescue and what a DELIGHTFUL PLACE....Starting from the extremely friendly staff/volunteers to the care, cleanliness, love and dedication these people have for our furryfriends...Its unfortunate that I live a long distance from this rescue otherwise I would be here volunteering 6 days a week..Thanks to everyone at paws crossed for the amazing work you all do to ensure our furryfriends are safe, loved, cared for and adopted into great loving furever homes...5 stars plus 5oo more...YOU GUYS ARE AWESOME!!

I love what they doing I would love to volunteer for them.actually in the process of adopting Doberman.Great place for adoption if you want to cat or dog.

Great place top adopt a pet. No kill shelter getting pets from many other places to save lives. Clean and well run!

This was absolutely the greatest pet adoption experience Ive ever had. Pamela and the entire Paws Crossed team are phenomenal. They care deeply for the animals and are very knowledgable, direct, understanding and helpful throughout the entire adoption process. Thank you so very much for my little Vixen. Im so in love!

Adapted a dog, after two days it bit my mothers hand. The dog didnt have his blister rabies shot. Returned the dog the next day. My daughter was devistayed.

Extremely nice people made the adoption process simple . They truly care about the animals.

A great team of people working to find homes for all animals. Helpfull and caring people. Donated supplied and food to our shelter in SC.

They take care of animals, out of the goodness of their hearts. They work hard to do their best for these lovely critters. Great staff, happy animals

Although I did not adopt an animal from here..this place is clean and the staff are very professional.

A nice clean well run shelter. We just got our new dog there.

A wonderful place with great people! If youre looking for your next best friend, look no further. Please adopt, dont shop.

Great rescue!! Wonderful staff, wonderful animals, clean and healthy environment for all the animals. Highly recommend this place!

Just picked up Beau, an amazing new member of our family. Folks there were great, supportive, and very knowledgeable.

Great place to adopt pets

The people who work there our the nicest people,they love what they do,they take care of all the pets and keep them clean and safe,,a very friendly inviorment

Awwfull.tried to rescue an 12 year old chihuaha with bd teeth and a heart murmor.this would have been our 3rd rescue one being a pit and another chihuaha.they wanted 350 $ donation claiming chip and neutering.lied about the neutering right off the bat.trying to profit off that poor dog .terrible.

Fantastic. You can tell these people really care about the animals they are finding homes for. They are kind, courteous, and thorough.

Well cared dogs and cats. Be patient if pet adoption takes longer than you think, well worth wait to saving and enriching an animals life.

We were to visit the animals and the staff was very friendly. The place is very clean and the animals were very excited and friendly too.Love this place

What an amazing place. Great people doing great things.

Great place to find your pet. Everyone was very friendly. I am still on the site for my next lil buddy.

They really care about the animals in their care and are always having events you can participate in. Lifelong support if you need it, go check out the animals, please take someone home, you wont regret it 😼

Lovely people running fairly large facility. Animals seemed well taken care of by a slew of volunteers and staff!

We have Jerry now. I can recommend this place to anyone whos considering to adopt a pet. Trustworthy.

When i went there to get a cat, they were so kind and fast. They helped us find the perfect one and fill everything out.

Worst animal shelter and staff to deal with. I am wondering how they actually treat the animals if they are so rude and unprofessional towards customers who want to adopt those animals.

This animal rescue does an amazing job at their facility, kudos to all that they do to raise funds!

Kind, caring facility. Animals are very loved and comfortable. Employees genuinely love and care for the animals

They save my kiti when she ran of the my house i could pick up her

It is good to find people who truly care about those fur babies.

Great place, but theres one lady who works there that wont let you get near the cats.

Shelter is excellent. Great care given to all the shelter animals. No kill shelter.

Picked up the new member of my family today, they were very helpful at the shelter

Welcoming atmosphere, great place to find a furry friend in need.

Staff is fantastic and I just wanted to take alot of the animals home!!

Personnel were pleasant and helpful and took us around yo see the dogs and cats.

Brand new facility, well run and Staff really cares about the health and safety of the animals.

The people that work here really care about the animals that they rescue and they helped me rescue my very first dog pepper.

Great place to go and rescue animals great work they do for all the lil fury animals

I feel like they no very minimum/ if anything about their dogs & its a real disadvantage for their animals. Like every question was a vague response. Compared to other shelters doesnt seem like they really try to get to know and understand and even connect with their animals. Very poor experience - was expecting better!

Save a pet here! Amazing no kill shelter that we volunteer at. The dogs, puppies, and kitties are sweet and need a forever home!

Animal lovers delight. Great volunteer opportunities as well as way to interact with dogs and cats

No kill shelter with well cared beautiful animals and very nice staff

I visited twice this place, very suitable for dogs, and the people are super nice.

Always friendly staff and take donations! Definitely recommend coming by and volunteering or even dropping off used blankets

Its not often I write reviews so that alone should be a statement. Let me start off by saying what an amazing rescue! The people here are only exceeded in their friendliness by the animals that they care for. Everyone was so helpful and kind that you almost want to stay yourself! Paws Crossed is very well maintained; its clean and organized, which is not common for a not for profit. To say the staff are genuinely here in the interest of the animals that reside within is a complete understatement! Everything everyone does in some capacity directly affects the wonderful loving animals inside. In my opinion when your selecting a new family member, its history and current surroundings are very important. Paws Crossed goes beyond any and all expectations to ensure each furry is ready to be lovingly welcomed and begin their life in a new home. I couldnt think of a better rescue to adopt from or to volunteer at! Thanks again to everyone for all they do, and keep rescuing one by one until there are none! 🐶❤🐱

Lovely rescue shelter and staff ❤️🐶❤️

Whats not to like about a shelter dedicated to keeping animals alive until they find a home, or as long as they live

Had such an amazing experience! Adopted puppy Bentley (formerly Lamar). Staff were responsive during the process and very warm during the visits. I could not have asked for a better place to experience this with.Facility is clean and dogs are well taken care of. I highly recommend Paws Crossed and plan to come back again soon to rescue another forever puppy.

Paws Crossed Animal Rescue is easily the best rescue Ive been to when looking to adopt a pet. The one thing you should take from this review, if you take nothing else, is that they match pets to the right owner, not the other way around. Their concern is for the well-being of the animals under their care - first and foremost. Theyre super friendly, accommodating and helpful, dont get me wrong - but its clear that they want to be sure the animal is comfortable with you.I first fostered a dog with heartworm from them and throughout the whole process they were amazing. From the outdoor spaces each animal gets to themselves which also has a door to an indoor space where if they dont like a person they dont have to interact with them; to the fact that in order to adopt an animal you have to meet the animal in a fenced in grassy area and interact w/them; to the way the animals seem to love the staff - everything just felt right.The dog I fostered wasnt comfortable in the area I lived (he needed a place much more quiet) and Paws Crossed helped me to understand that and accommodate him by finding him a better foster (actually permanent!) home.Ultimately, I wound up adopting a puppy the day I brought the foster dog back, and Ive continued to recommend Paws Crossed to anyone who asks where I found my dog. They continue to impress everyone Ive sent, and its really refreshing to find people who genuinely care about animals and dont showcase them to you in a 3 foot by 3 foot cage stacked 3 on top of each other.Again - I cant recommend them more highly - theyre just great people who care about animals so much, and it shows in how their whole process works and how the animals love them. (And us adopters too!)

This place is a gem. Volunteers make it hum. Animals are noticeably content and cared for.

Clean and organized place. Lots of volunteers walking the dogs.

Wonderful people and a great rescue

Every staff member we met were so loving and knowledgeable. This is our first rescue and it was an amazing experience. We are so happy with our new baby. Many thanks to paws crossed! We highly recommend.

Not even lying, as soon I got there, it looked amazing as it did on the website. THE place to go if you want to find your forever companion. I recommend it so much. They’re so careful and caring with the dogs and cats and I love it.

Well organized operation. The staff here love animals.

Everyone i met was great. Very helpful and it seems like they really care about you and the animals. They actually answered the phone and emails when i called unlike 99 percent of the other rescues i tried before finding them.

Simply Outstanding..The Food Is Excellent As Well As The Service...

Good People & They are doing a GREAT JOB..

Best rescue i’ve ever been to hands down..

Very caring staff who love their jobs and the animals. They work very hard to find the right home for each animal and clearly care for each and every single one.

The kibbles program is a blessing. The people there are so nice and pleasant.

Love this place, friendly staff, the young founder of energy and enthusiasm into a very difficult tile and it runs off to the others that work and volunteer there. Dont miss this wonderful group if you are looking for a furever companion

Wonderful facility with amazing CARING staff. Paws Crossed made adopting our new cat, Cash, so easy. The staff, knows, loves and understands each animal that is there. Tempest introduced us to the right cat immediately and was very accurate with her description of his personality and moods. Cash is a perfect fit for us, thank you again, you all do excellent work!!

One question there, could you help me with training my dog, I cant potty train him and my husband wants to give him up for adoption 🥹

A place where they work and take care of the puppies, if they can help, any donation is well received. There are also the puppies waiting for the love of whoever wants to give them a home.
