“Adopting Jake (formerly Doxy) from One Step Closer Animal Rescue was a wonderful experience. The staff’s dedication to rescuing animals from kill shelters and matching them with the right families is evident. They were transparent about Jake’s history of abuse, ensuring we were prepared for his needs. The adoption process was thorough, and their care ensured Jake was healthy and ready for his new home. Jake has thrived with us, and I highly recommend O.S.C.A.R. for their passion and commitment to animal welfare.”

“Xtreme really is a special place that we were lucky enough to be a part of for the past 2 years. The club culture nurtures player development and ensures that all players get play time. Coaches are strict but not punishing. The admin is very organized and lays out the schedule early on in the season. Communication is easy and transparent. Practices are open for parents to watch. And the director is often found at late night practices to offer additional coaching and advice and amazingly knows every player’s name and story, making the environment feel like you’re at a family member’s home.
We will cherish the memories that were made at Xtreme as the place where my daughter regained her confidence and swag, and made lasting friendships that extend beyond the court and off season.”

“This is one of the very best places to adopt. Kind, very informative about every animal land ultimate care of every rescue. I know this for a fact after recently adopting a puppy. I want to than all the volunteers for their incredible hard work. Laurie and Coco”

“I love this place. The babysitting room is so amazing and my daughter absolutely loves coming here for her swim lessons and other activities. As a hardworking father it’s relieving knowing my daughter is having fun and in good safe hands while I get a little “me time” to finally get myself back into shape and relax in the sauna and steam room. This place is clean, extremely friendly and family oriented. 10/10 in my eyes”
