Animals Unlimited

We had Jana and her animals out for a school event. Planning the event was easy - she was very responsive to my many questions. She arrived promptly and set up quickly. The presentation itself was very interactive; she shared information about each animal and its habitat and gave the children a chance to pet and hold most of the animals when possible. We had several venues for the day and I heard several of the kids comment afterwards that this was their favorite; I wouldn't hesitate to recommend her and her business!

Came to my daughters school. There was one person present to watch all the animals. They had a bunny on the floor with no one monitoring the kids handling it. Watched her leave a snake on table unattended walked away with a room full of children. Raised her voice at children when they touched animal wrong or went past cones that were hardly visible. I'm concerned for the animals but also the lady that came was not child friendly at all Jana. If that poor bunny survives it will be a miracle.

Jana was amazing. We had way more kids than I realized and we were not finished getting ready in time. But the show went on! The kids had a blast! The python around my son's shoulders made for the best birthday boy pictures ever!

Horrible experience. The animals were starving and not very friendly. They also didn't look like they were groomed in awhile. They literally ate our bushes in the backyard. Not only that, we added the pony to the package with the theme of my little pony. The decorations literally consisted of a tiny my little pony bow and a lei. The pony destroyed his decorations before the kids begin to ride.

Not only that, Jana the young lady who serviced me was very unprofessional and rude. A concerned parent asked her, how are we going to ensure that the animals doesn't go in the road, she replied, "are you mom, the concerned parent said no, she proceeded to say okay then, they are fine. They won't go far." In addition, 30 mins before the event was over, Jana kept stating, "if the kids are finished with the animals I can start packing them up now." As if she was in a rush.

As the host, I was literally asked several times by concerned parents was Jana on "something/under the influence." The whole set up was quite boring. You're better off taking the kids to the Zoo. She provided brushes and other items to brush the sheep. But she never took the time out to show the kids how to actually do it. She just sat them on the ground and basically let them have their way.

She basically needs additional help. It's obvious she can't do it alone. The ducks and chickens were in the cage the whole entire time. The only things she mentioned was their name and that's all. Never stated any facts about them. Overall, it's not worth the price! Try a different company.

Jana and her animals were amazing! We had her come out for our daughter's birthday party and it made the whole day. Jana was wonderful to work with and was so helpful and accommodating, as we had some major weather concerns on the day of the event. Things couldn't have gone better and we loved every moment with Jana and the Barnyard Buddies. I'd highly recommend Animals Unlimited to anyone looking for a wonderful petting zoo experience!

We had Animals Unlimited bring a petting zoo to our house for a very small family gathering outside during COVID for my daughter's 7th birthday. It was a great socially distanced activity. Jana (the owner) brought bunnies, baby goats (SO CUTE), sheep, donkey, pony for rides IN OUR OWN BACK YARD :), chicken, duck, mountain goat - I might be leaving something out.

We had a blast. Jana was responsible, on time, the animals were VERY healthy and well-cared for (clearly well-loved), and she turned our suburban yard into a petting zoo for a very excited family. We will definitely bring her again (they do reptiles too for when the weather is warm). I can't recommend Jana and her zoo enough. This was honestly the best thing we could have done for our daughter during COVID when options are limited for safety, distance, outdoors, etc. This was awesome and we will remember it forever! Thank you Jana!

My family and friends enjoyed Jana professionalism and passion she has for the animals. She provided an experience that will last a lifetime for my son's second bday celebration as my family were pleasantly surprised with the beautiful animals she bought. Jana arrived a little early to the celebration and left later than she was scheduled to, she arrived extra excited and wanted to greet my son which was amazing.

She was knowledgeable about the animals as we asked tons of questions which she was thorough in giving details regarding the animals. Thank you Animals Unlimited and we look forward to partnering with you in the near future, I'd also encourage others to utilize her service for any events they may have.

We have loved having Jana bring her animals to our church for many, many years! Each Palm Sunday at St. Stephen's Church she brings her precious Jerusalem donkey, Evie, for our Palm Sunday procession. This year we held a live nativity during Advent and Jana brought her donkey, sheep, and goats. Having the animals as part of the nativity made it so special and authentic.

Our families and children loved it and seeing the animals. This will become a new tradition! Jana is always friendly and so accommodating. She loves her animals which you can see by the way she treats them. I highly recommend using Animals Unlimited! Thank you, Jana!

This petting zoo was awesome! We had them at our annual Day of Play event at James River Equipment and they were a HUGE hit. It was awesome because the animals were not kept in cages, they were free to wander around which the kids loved because they could pet them and play with them and the adults loved holding the baby goats. All of the babies would stay close to their moms so they would never run away so it made it an awesome interactive petting zoo experience. The kids also loved being able to pet and groom the horse! I could not recommend them enough!
