What Our Community Is Saying

I appreciate that ALL of their animals come vetted before they're up for adoption. Vaccines, spay/neuter, even MICROCHIP! They also go through a series of temperament tests.  I've gotten 2 dogs from them and am currently so in love with them I volunteer weekly. 

 

Jordin

I went to the event today (free microchipping for cats).  I may have even been the first one there. In an out with 3 cats in less than 30 minutes. Absolutely fantastic people! 

 

Brandy

If you’ve ever been to a shelter and have experienced the seeming indifference of the people whose responsibility it is to care and nurture these poor creatures, be ready to be astounded at the caring and concern of the people who work here and the wonderful people who volunteer at St Frances. Thank you, each and every one of you. 

Rosemarie

We adopted Ember five days before Hurricane Florence hit. They were very helpful and more than accommodating letting us see all the dogs available for adoption despite the rush to get all of their babies evacuated. When it comes time to adopt our second fur baby we know exactly where to go. Thank you SFAC for allowing this sweet, lovable and energetic girl into our family! She’s the perfect addition and just what our family needed! 

Marina

Took in our 2 kittens who had separate appointments, but awesomely enough, they were able to see both at the same time!  It saved us another hour of waiting! Such a friendly and professional staff as well. A great place to go for quality care!

I adopted my dog, Tucker, from St. Frances 10 years ago.  It was one of the best decisions I’ve ever made. The process was easy, and everyone was pleasant and professional.  They’ve been a part of this community for many years and hopefully will be here many more. 

 

Christine

We have adopted 4 cats; 3 were special needs. One has 3 legs, 1 with one eye, and 1 with eye problems. Their vet removed the eye and drove on her own time to Hartsville to work with another vet friend because she had not done that type of leg amputation before.  Could not ask for sweeter, more loving animals. 

 

A.B.

We have had the best experience with Saint Frances and particularly with Melody.  We are currently medically fostering a heart worm positive dog and two kittens from SFAC, and they have provided everything, made the experience as easy and efficient as possible for us. (We live over an hour away!), and have just been wonderful to work with. We are so happy to be able to play a small part in the work that Saint Frances is doing in helping the best members of our society find the loving homes that they deserve!! This is the first place I would send anyone looking to add some more happiness and love to their family or life, hands down. Thank you for all you do.

Good people. They try to save animals from bad owners and work with owners who are good but something out of the ordinary happens.  The over population of dogs from carelessness needs to stop. Have your pets spayed or neutered. 

 

Dianne

Saint Frances is the best animal shelter I've ever been to. I've volunteered with other animal shelters, and none compares to here. The staff there are super friendly and helpful, and the animals have a VERY clean living environment.  Water and food bowls were always full and clean, and vaccines given to all animals were exceptional.  My vet back home was very impressed that my kitten was tested for Felv. Baby Tanner has an amazing home now and he's full of energy! Thanks Saint Frances!

This place is awesome, and I love Dr. O!

Adopted sweet Jenny yesterday. Staff at St. Frances are friendly and accommodating. Highly recommend! 

 

Pamela

 Super friendly staff! We were so excited to meet the dogs and take Russ home with us. 

Claudine

The best place to get a pet from.  My son got Baby almost 6 years ago.   She is the love of our life.  They really care about the pets there. 

Deborah

We had a great experience with our adoption yesterday!! Everyone was so helpful and friendly. Thank you so much for helping us find our Sweet Girl! Her new name is Pepper! 

 

Devin

A wonderful facility. Thank you so much for being there, St. Frances. We loved working with you when we found our dear kitty Ron Weasley. 

 

Sarah

Extremely reasonably priced spaying and neutering services. Competent and friendly staff. Efficient! 

 

Dana

We got our beautiful dog Minnie aka Millie and they took such wonderful care of her until she found her forever home. 

 

Lori

I got the most handsome guy from there 5 years ago and I’m still in love.  Pauly- previously Big Foot. Was found under a bridge and is now a spoiled house kitty. 

 

Alaina

Great staff & very friendly! I have adopted two siblings from here. So glad I did. 

 

Anthony

Amazing kind people! Anyone who is looking for a pet should definitely contact St. Frances. 

 

Mike

 I just think the facility is welcoming, volunteers friendly and extremely caring to the animals. This reminds me of our Popcorn Park Shelter and Veterinarian Services. 

Candee

Got my best buddy (Ryan) now named Sarge from them Memorial Day 2019. Now he is spoiled rotten. But we adopted him in one of their fastest adoptions. They were great and they take good care of the animals and facility.  Super nice folks. And Sarge says hello.  

Robert

Amazing staff, they truly care for the animals. 

 

Shonda

This shelter is doing amazing things on an incredibly tight budget! 

 

Melissa

Thank you for taking care of our dog after getting out and picked up by animal control.  Wonderful treatment. 

 

Corey

Most loving 2 all animals & humans.

I recently adopted my first dog, Ottis, a black lab puppy. I couldn’t be more happy with the staff, and their patience in answering any questions I had. St. Frances truly takes pride in uniting animals with the right owners. I will never go anywhere else when adopting a pet!

Ottis' Mom

We love our new addition to the family! Savannah is loving her new home. Thank you so much!

Cassie

I worked for Saint Frances Animal Center years ago. Working there made a difference in my life.  I miss my job and all the friends I made there….four legged and two legged.
