Surrendering & Rehoming
Surrenders are accepted on a case by case basis. We only ask questions to ensure that we are able to provide care for surrendered animal(s). If we are at capacity we may reach out to you about being added to a waitlist.
We are currently unable to take in: aquatic turtles, lizards over 2 ft., and snakes over 6ft.
Surrender Process:
- Fill out a surrender form
- Let us know how we can reach out to you for the next steps
- We will reach out and set up a time and a place to drop off the surrendered animal with us

We understand that life can change in ways that make it difficult to care for your animals. Whether it’s due to a lack of time, moving to a new place, unexpected life changes, or feeling unprepared to meet their needs, rehoming a pet is never an easy decision.
We are proud to assist reptile owners in making difficult decisions, offering a compassionate, judgment-free space where the well-being of your animal will always be our top priority.
If you’re considering relinquishing care, please don’t wait. Acting sooner ensures your pet receives the care they need when they need it most. Our experienced team is equipped with the resources, medical care, and supplies to give them a second chance at a happy, healthy life.
Thank you for trusting us to care for your reptiles when you no longer can, giving them the best chance at a healthy and happy future.
Why Choose Us?
Choosing us means that you’re choosing a rescue that treats every reptile with the compassion and respect they deserve. We believe in individualized care, taking the time to understand each animal’s unique needs and providing them with the space and rehabilitation necessary to thrive.
Our passion for animal welfare drives everything we do. Every reptile we welcome in becomes part of our extended family, receiving attentive care and enrichment during their time with us. Finding the perfect home for each animal is our top priority. That’s why we carefully vet adopters, ensuring they are knowledgeable, prepared, and committed to providing a lifelong home.
We go beyond rehoming by educating adopters on species-specific care and offering ongoing support. At our rescue, your reptile is not just rehomed, they are they are set up in their forever homes with the tools they need to thrive.
We currently are a foster based organization and do not have a storefront open to the public for drop-offs. This means that after you have filled out a form, upon approval we will contact you to schedule the actual exchange. If you have any questions about this process, feel free to send us an email or reach out on social media for the fastest response.
