Found 2 small lost dogs. They were hot hungry and thirsty. One of them had skin issues. The front desk/ intake team was great.

Went to adopt a new Doggo. The staff and volunteers were absolutely the best. The facility is very clean and open and doesn't at all feel like doggie jail. We left with the most amazing fluffy pup ever and I couldn't be happier. If you can ,PLEASE ADOPT!!!!

We loved speaking with Debra, we adopted our precious bunny with this facility. The bunny brigade people were very friendly and knowledgeable. They also have small dating session area to see if your current bunny will fit well with the new bunny you adopt. This was most helpful when adding a third bunny to my trio.

Disappointed is an understatement. I followed their rules clearly stated on their website. Do not apply or wait in line for a dog whose adoption date hasn’t been reached yet. Well I’ve been waiting till an adoptable dogs adoption date to get an appointment, just to see that they allowed her to be adopted a day before she was even allowed to be released… if that were the case I would have applied and gotten an appointment the day before she was supposed to be released too. Found a couple reviews saying this happened to them as well…guess they can’t follow their own rules. So why have them? Today’s date 11/18 - shes only adoptable on 11/19

On July 16, 2025, I got a new roommate. This is Reeses, the Countess of Pieces; a 9 yr old misunderstood and scared lady who was adopted and returned 3 times (first adoption from a shelter up north, was surrendered in Camarillo and was returned 2 times then transferred to Simi for the Cat Distribution Society to guide her to choose me). The other adopters were not meant to be hers- she was incompatible with other animals, rambunctious kids, or loud men with pointing fingers. The shelters were overcrowded and they still made time to pet her when she allowed it, put curtains on her cage (so she had a darker corner to hide from the chaos), and even moved her from Camarillo to Simi Valley so some fresh eyes could meet and bond with her. The rest is history, she is the sweetest and most attentive lady now in her true furever home. Many thanks to the staff and volunteers of the Camarillo and Simi shelters.
