Kat reached out the very next day after reviewing our application and pre approved us. Yelena reached out for all coordination afterwards. Marigold was not even posted on the rescues page but they were so kind and were able to get us in to meet her. The foster mom (and dad) were wonderful and have been doing this for so long (60+ kitties). We instantly fell in love with Marigold and were able to be selected to adopt her (pat on our back for being able to provide a good home). She came from a hoarder home and was lucky to survive from malnutrition. We came back to get her after getting she completed her shots/spayed. Not even 24 hours in, my one year old tabby loves her and she is settling in perfectly. I will say I have had not so great experiences with other rescues in the area and Dirty Little Paws surpassed all expectations! I hope one day I can repay them and foster another baby in need.

When my family was facing one of the most difficult moments of our lives--my mother's…read morehospitalization which was soon followed by her heartbreaking passing--we were blessed to find comfort, care, and true compassion at Jacob's House. From the moment we arrived, we were welcomed not just as guests, but as people in need of a safe, supportive space to breathe and regroup. The team at Jacob's House extended kindness that felt so genuine--it was as though they wrapped our family in a warm hug during a very heavy time. The home itself is peaceful and thoughtfully maintained, with every detail clearly designed to bring a sense of calm to families like ours. But beyond the physical comforts, what meant the most was the human kindness. The staff checked in on us, offered encouraging words, and created a space where we didn't feel so alone in our grief and uncertainty. It's rare to find a place that truly lives out its mission, but Jacob's House does just that. Their presence made a heartbreaking chapter in our lives just a little bit lighter, and we will always carry gratitude for the compassion they showed us. If you or a loved one are ever in need of a place to stay during a medical emergency in Temecula, know that Jacob's House is a sanctuary--one filled with heart, understanding, and hope. With deep gratitude, Nora

We visited Olivenhain Farms for the first time for their Monday morning animal play session with my…read morealmost 3-year-old and had such a fun morning! It's a cute, small farm right across from the San Diego Botanic Garden with easy parking right out front. They have miniature ponies, goats, a pig, rabbits, chickens and quail. The experience was very hands-on the kids fed the animals lettuce and Cheerios, brushed the ponies, went inside the rabbit enclosures, and got to interact with the pig and chickens outside their pens. They also had painting activities, a super cute mud kitchen with bubbles and utensils, and ended with fresh fruit in the shade and story time. Just wholesome, messy toddler fun! The instructor was great with the kids--laid-back, friendly and informative. I think the Monday morning session is especially perfect for kids under 4. We drove up from Chula Vista, so I'm not sure I'd make the drive specifically to do the same session again, but it was absolutely worth experiencing once for $40 and we had a great time! Bonus: walk across the street to the San Diego Botanic Garden afterward and make a whole day out of it!

I was told they were booked until late March but I could try coming in early on a Saturday because usually those individuals who make early appointments on Saturday don't make it. I opted for making an appointment in late March to stay safe, but would come in on an early Saturday morning to see how my luck is with getting my taxes done due to someone's failure to appear. I was almost done scheduling the appointment with the receptionists up front when they asked how much $$ I earned in 2012 -- needless to say I didn't qualify. It sucks but whatever, the customer service was good and who can say anything bad about gratis services?! I recommend this place if you qualify. TIP: Don't bother making an appointment over the phone. Find a location closest to you, walk in there, and actually make an appointment with a receptionist behind the desk. If you call the number, you will only receive a voicemail and the voicemail clearly states they will return your call sometime within 7 days. "AIN'T NOBODY GOT TIME FOR THAT!!"
