Review by Angela M.

Birthday Party (Kids)Reviewed on October 26, 2021From Valparaiso, IN

Everything was good. They were a bit late but stayed the hour. I do love a couple hours from them. Kids loved it at first then were like meh. The kids were 6-12. The pen was a little small and 5 kids at once was a little much. The animals wanted to pull out and eat my grass. I loved it tho. It was different and unique. I had lots of compliments.

Never in my life again. This place is a fraud and they kept my deposit! My one year olds bday was terrible... People were waiting for them to show up and noone did. I emailed them a week an advance to confirm and nothing a day before I get an email letting me know what time they will come and asking me the address. Noone should trust this place I hope it shuts down.

:

Our company is not a fraud, we are well established facility that has a wonderful reputation for providing great animal experiences. We contacted the client at the time of booking for an address and got no response. There was no email from the client a week prior. We emailed again before the event for the address, no response. My staff assigned to the job called the client 3 times with no response. We still loaded up and drove to the city and waited in hopes she would reach out. It wasn't till an hour after her start time when she replied and unfortunately we had already left to make our next event on time. We did everything we could to provide for this event.

The entire party loved the animals, and loved how the chicken laid an egg! The daughter is still talking about the goats, Thank you for making her day so special.

Wendy and her animals were so much fun! The kids and adults enjoyed her presentation. We were able to touch each animal and ask as many questions about them as we wanted. We really had a great time.

Birthday Party (Kids)Reviewed on May 20, 2019From Chicago, IL

I was a wee bit nervous, there was not a whole lot of communication. I had nothing to worry about however, everything went off without a hitch. Animal Express made an amazing addition for a fantastic 4 year old birthday party. Carol was amazing. She was knowledgeable and able to share with all of our little guests. She also made sure every kid had a chance to see each animal. Can’t recommend highly enough.

Birthday Party (Kids)Reviewed on May 11, 2019From Lake Geneva, WI

We had a party at our home with ten 6 year old kids. The staff was so sweet and patient with all the kids. We thoroughly enjoyed this and I would highly recommend this for entertainment for a childrens party. Not only is it educational, but the kids and adults alike could not keep their eyes off these amazing creatures. Will DEFINITELY rehire.
