My wife and I genuinely love this place and have always enjoyed visiting. The staff is usually…read morefriendly, and it's clear they care about the animals. However, we've run into the same issue multiple times, and it's become frustrating. Whenever a new group of kittens arrives, it seems that staff members are able to claim or adopt them before customers even have a chance to view them or express interest. We've experienced this on more than one occasion, and it leaves us feeling like customers aren't being given a fair opportunity to adopt some of the animals that come in. I understand that employees may also want to adopt pets, but when customers are actively looking to adopt, it doesn't seem fair for staff to have first access while they're working. In my opinion, this is a policy issue that should be addressed to ensure everyone has an equal chance to adopt. We still like this place and appreciate what they do, but this is something that has significantly impacted our experience.

My cat was finally called and I was in shock at what I saw. The cruelty and treatment of my cat was so wrong. The Lange Foundation should train the staff paid or not to be more organized and treat our pets in a much better way than this. This person here is using her mouth to hold the syringe and having some kind of exorcist moment before injecting my cat with the syringe straight from her mouth and then the way she holds her and drags her and then throws her in the crate like nothing. I went home and cried. 7/31/26 Since this post a few messages were sent my way. I wasn't going to address them but it has gotten out of hand. I don't need permission to take pictures or record in Public. Free or not they shouldn't be treated like that.

My family and I had been in search for a dog for quite a few months. The online search and…read morecontacting rescues was an exhausting process. We found Wags & Walks and sent in an application for a dog. The next day I received a call from Jade, an adoption coordinator. She asked what my family and I were looking for in a dog and right then I knew this was the rescue I wanted to work with. I didn't feel rushed and I could tell this rescue truly cares about all the dogs and the foster/adoption process. We set a time to visit their facility the following week and met Jade. She was so patient with me and my family while we met a few dogs and made our decision. We took our Lil Bit as a foster for a week to make sure he was the right fit for our family and while he was still taking his medication Wags & Walks was giving him for his cold. The week we were fostering I was in contact with Jade and she answered all my questions in a timely manner. We adopted a week later. Jade offered for us to take Lil Bit back so they could do one more medical check before the adoption was finalized. Jade also sat with me and went through all the adoption forms. During this entire process, I never felt rushed or forced to adopt. I was guided with kindness and patience. Also, Wags & Walks facility is super clean and organized and all the staff we met were so nice and friendly.

This rescue is run by volunteers, so communication can be slow and a bit disorganized. We found…read morethem through Adopt-a-Pet.com and inquired about a dog. They informed us that the dog had multiple applicants, and that the adoption fee might decrease over time if interest remained low. We scheduled a meetup near a Petco in Hawthorne. They arrived a bit late in a large white van with multiple dogs in crates--some appeared anxious. The process felt a little hectic since other adopters were scheduled around the same time. The adoption fee was on the higher side and included vaccinations and spay/neuter services. However, our dog was too young to be fully vaccinated or neutered, so we had to schedule those appointments later. Unfortunately, we later learned--through a professional groomer--that the dog we adopted was not a poodle as advertised, but a labradoodle.

Only to realize already in the process that no these dogs are bejng bred and sold and used for "puppy parties" selling to just anyone off the street. Which is terrible the way things in Los angeles are. They did not even question me they just wanted the cash to give me the dog. There was no process and it was clear they wanted money. DO NOT USE THIS "foundation" if you care about the wellness of doggies out there especially with this cruel pandemic going on. If you have knowledge on animal rescue you know how terrible and ignored things are right now.

Unfortunately I cannot recommend this business. My first…read moreexperience with Love and Leashes was very good. I adopted a pup with the help of two very nice and helpful employees. My second experience was terrible. After my puppy was killed while with me on leash by a reckless driver, I later returned to L&L to look for a new baby. Different set of employees, and both my nephew and I were shocked that one of them seemed to blame me for my puppy being killed. He was rude, insensitive to the circumstance, and he did all he could to throw up roadblocks to helping me. He was an expressionless jerk who had zero empathy or professionalism. I contacted the manager about this, and though she three times promised to call me back, she never did. This is heartless behavior for a place that is supposed to be doing good. I will never go back to that place again. The only reason this is not a 1-star review is because my first experience with them was good. That appears to have been an anomaly. I adopted a pup from Best Friends West LA, which I cannot recommend enough.

What immediately stood out is how well the cats are treated -- they have full freedom to roam, plenty of toys to keep them entertained, and they're well fed and cared for. You can tell this place genuinely prioritizes making it a warm, comfortable space for the cats while they wait for their forever home. It's not a shelter -- it feels like a home. The staff made the whole adoption experience seamless. Jude especially was incredibly kind, helpful, and knowledgeable -- exactly the kind of person you want guiding you through the process. The rest of the team matched that same energy, and it made everything feel easy and stress-free from start to finish. My girlfriend and I couldn't be happier -- we found our girl Pinky, and she's already stolen our hearts. 10 out of 10, would recommend this café to anyone thinking about adopting. Don't hesitate, just go.

Session times have also changed, previously being a 4 hour session with drinks included - now 3 hours and no inclusions. This is over a 100% markup when accounting for prices and loss of time. This is meant to be a "discounted" price for students to encourage them to visit and study, this is not the case and not viable. In fact, it is greedy. Disappointed in this company and brand.

We met "Greyson" at the East Valley Shelter in Van Nuys and was scheduled to euthanized on 4/17 because of a condition called Enteopion, where the eyelids grow inward. So his lashes have been irritating his eyes his whole life. The surgery is expensive, we went home and did our research calling several Pitbull rescues. So many amazing people lead us to Mahkala, who is connected with PetSpace. We were then connected with Patricia was able to get the surgery approved, if we agreed to Foster to Adopt. She picked up Greyson from the pound and took him to get the surgery. We picked him up, and after 2 weeks of shepherding him through his healing, took him back to PetSpace to have his stitches removed. The only hiccups we've had was unclear communication at times. In dealing with several other folks via text, email, our valid and pertinent questions seemed to be more of an annoyance and not answering. "We don't have that info" or "It hasn't been updated in our system" were frequent answers to our inquiries pertain to the dog. The facility is wonderful, the store is pricy which was kind of surprising. I believe the people here know it's a special place. Grayson - now name Trueba is healing up, his hair is growing in post op and is a sweet 80+ pound squishy love that has a new lease on life.

The space was very impressive inside and I was super astonished at the attention to detail this huge space included for not only animals, but for children as well. At first, I felt skeptical at how big the place is yet with how little animals there are. But the Wallis Annenberg PetSpace wants to foster human-animal interaction well. I loved how when I came by here, there was a staff member reading books aloud to children. There were activities and lots of valuable teaching material. The dogs were also in a clean and wonderful environment. It was definitely a different atmosphere from dog shelters. You can see the care and comfort prioritized for them. When one is napping, they even put down a blind for privacy! This experience definitely made me want to come back here in the future to adopt one day, and to give my dog a companion!
