Come learn, explore, and meet the animals of CuetaraCare Animal Rescue & Sanctuary!

CuetaraCare is a nonprofit animal rescue and sanctuary specializing in turtles and tortoises, along with mini farm animals and other domestic animals. Our educational visits give children, families, and small groups the chance to learn about animal care, rescue, conservation, and treating all living creatures with kindness and respect.

Whenever possible, visits include guided, hands-on encounters with our sanctuary residents. Guests may meet, touch, and observe the animals while learning about their personalities, habitats, diets, and care needs. Every interaction is based on what's appropriate for each animal.

We're especially passionate about inspiring young people. Time spent with rescue animals builds curiosity, compassion, and responsibility, and we hope it helps raise the next generation of animal advocates and caretakers.
