Very Happy Customer
Animal Express was extremely professional and provided an amazing experience for all of the children at our event. The station was well-maintained, at all times throughout the party, and Animal Express worked seamlessly with ensuring the safety of their animals while also ensuring the children had a great time. We will be using them again and recommending them to all of our friends.
Taking your kids to the zoo is always a fun excursion, but how great would it be to bring the zoo to you? Petting zoos offer an interactive and personalized experience that can entertain party guests right in your own backyard! Feeling the soft fur or scaly skin is half the fun of being introduced to various types of animals. By hiring a local petting zoo, you’ll give your children the thrill of interacting with exciting animals and reptiles while learning valuable information about them!
