Lollypop Farm, Humane Society of Greater Rochester

Came to visit some animals to help de-stress during finals week. The petting area is currently closed to the public, but we could still view the animals from outside the pens. Got to see an old pup get a adopted while we were there so that was nice to see.

Terrible experience trying to adopt a second kitten from there. Went during the week to see the available cats, saw an adorable 2 mo with the same energy as our cat and they told us to come back the next day right at opening when she’d be available. Good thing we called because she wasn’t there at all, she was being moved to one of the satellite locations. Told us she should be there around noon, so we spent our lunch break going there ready to adopt. The employees at that location were completely clueless and didn’t know if/when she would be getting there, but told us we should call later. We called and she was adopted as soon as she got to the store, whenever that actually was. Why make adoption so tedious when there are so many cats in need of homes, very disappointing.

We walked around the walking path to see the animals. Lots of the animals were far and hard to see but it is a pleasant walk. There’s a book spread out through the path. My baby saw: pigs, horses, cows, goats, emus, turtles. At the adoption center we saw some cats, turtles, bunnies, mice. We also bought some toys for our dog there.

We took our family in the hopes of adopting a dog we saw online. The staff was very courteous and pleasant to speak with. Although the dog had been adopted, we spent time walking through the dog and cat areas, our youngest loved the bunnies, mice, and turtle too! There is also a huge outdoor area to see goats, pigs, horses, and emu. For the pets that are up for adoption, they seem to provide as much information as possible to try and fit them with a good home.

My family adopted several animals from Lollypop while growing up in the area. They always had clean facilities and knowledgeable staff. They have great programs with local schools for vocational skills. The grounds and facilities are well kept and easy to access.

Cool place to visit. It would be way better if you got to pet the horses. The dog kennels are closed more often than not. Most of the staff is friendly.

This place is amazing! The whole experience was just smooth and very organized. I would highly recommend getting any new family members from here. This is our story....We recently added a new member to our family. His name is Diesel and he is just the missing puzzle piece that we needed. He is definitely a big lap dog (at 79 lbs) and we adopted him from Lollypop Farm. We looked at a couple of other dogs but I kept coming back to him. He really looked sad and just wanted some love. We requested a meet and greet once we realized that he would adapt well in our home. Lollypop told us that our big guy didn't like toys, but when he comes in the meet and greet he grabs a toy and starts chowing down. He had so much personality explode out that I was hooked. We definitely had found our newest member. They provided vaccinations, microchipping, toys, food, collar, and a vet visit free! Diesel has been a wonderful addition to our family and we couldn't be happier. My son tells everyone he has a new brother"Please don't get upset when they tell you that an animal won't be the best fit for your family. They are placing these fur babies in homes that will work with the animals personality

What a wonderful staff and amazing people they have working there! The woman Suzie that showed me my kitten told us the price and we were a little weary but then decided to adopt the cat which we thought was a girl and I was at the pet store when she called and told me I would be getting my kitten for free because of a mix up and that he was actually the male of the two cats. Mind you I didn’t mind paying because I already had but the fact that they called and told me and refunded my money just shows it is an honest shelter that truly cares about their animals finding good homes! Our new companion is home now bringing so much joy to my 5 year old son! And he’s the most precious little kitten ever! I highly recommend lollipop farm if I adopt another animal it will only be through them! Thank you lollipop for the amazing experience oh and not to mention the kitten came fixed and vaccinated!!!! So happy with the outcome of our trip there. *update* since we adopted our kitten I’ve needed some paperwork I misplaced or didn’t have and they got back to me with everything I needed the SAME day both times! And today I was on a time crunch and sure enough they came through with what I needed even though they opened late in the day! They still sent everything along AND called me to make sure I got it! This place is absolutely amazing and the staff truly cares for the animals even when they leave the facility! Again thank you our kitten is wonderful and loving! Even adjusted so wonderful to my 5 year old!

Just adopted Mimi today. A quick and easy process, Lollypop Farms gave us all the necessary paperwork and a few days worth of food - along with a bunch of other vet resources and store coupons. Mimi is especially friendly and has very quickly adjusted to her new home. She took about 10 minutes exploring our living room and kitchen before she was ready for play time! After eating a good bowl of food and drinking quite a bit of water, she’s settling in for a nap on the couch, as you can see. We couldn’t be happier to have Mimi as a part of the family!
