I had read a lot of bad reviews about it but mine is a perfect 1 the only problem here is the communication between the owners & the adopter . my previous experience. I have met with a couple owner, but it didn’t fall through until my husky which is is 20 am min away from me ….. we agree on the terms, and then Walla …..

I had the best adoption experience at…
I had the best adoption experience at getyourpet. I have never been so happy to find my beautiful 3yr old Chihuahua. Very sweet and smart. She is well behaved and just a joy to have in my home. As for the scammers be careful they are out there but getyourpet recognized them and let’s you know and if you do not get replies it most likely can be a scammer. I had a good experience with the family I adopted my girl from. It’s been 3 months since I adopted her and I couldn’t be happier!!!

Good process, Great experience
I was able to quickly and inexpensively find the Beagle puppy I wanted to adopt. When using getYourPet.com, pay ONLY the adoption fee. Pay it ONLY to getYourPet, and ONLY pay AFTER you take possession of the pet. NO OTHER Charges should be asked for. No, not even vet records or pedigree transfer, (nothing else!) Use the site tools, methods, and some common sense to insure a great experience.

We had a very positive experience!
We had a very positive experience. The owner was legit and excellent with communication. We met up twice, the second time to adopt our new dog! We were never asked for money or personal information. It's a shame so many people out there want to take advantage. It seems this site does what it can to make the meet-ups official and documented but it can't keep people from being dishonest. Had there been any red flags we definitely would have walked away. Our new pup is a wonderful addition to our family!

I was waiting to get scammed.
Spent a lot of time on a lot of different websites, trying to find the right dog to add to our family. After a few weeks of trying, and failing on all fronts (craigslist, local shelters, facebook groups, etc) I decided to give GetYourPet my final attempt at finding a new pup. The website was slightly confusing in how it worked, and if I'm honest, I couldnt tell if this site was even legit or not. But this was my hail mary, so I threw caution to the wind and signed up. I ran into the perfect dog (an all black Cane Corso) on my first search. Honestly, the whole thing looked too good to be true and I was fully prepared for it to be fake. I gave it a shot (because why not) and reached out to the owner. To my suspicious surprise, I had an actual dialogue with this owner, and made actual plans to meet. But until I saw this pup with my own eyes, I was fully expecting this to turn into a scam, or find out that there was a catch. Maybe I'm too cynical. But long story short, after one meet up, I brought her home :)
Ive read lots of horror stories on here about scams and terrible adoption situations, but ours was the absolute opposite. Maybe we we're one of the lucky ones. But our new baby girl is exactly what we expected and hoped she would be.
So, while bad users seem to be the biggest issue, we're proof that there are legit people on there that just want to be good humans and find a good home for their pet.
TLDR: Use good judgement when looking for a new pet on here, and know what you're getting into. Scammers exist, BUT, there are absolutely legitimate and good people on there too.

A Delightful Way to Meet!
I found GetYourPet quite by accident.
I saw a pup that I was interested in and completed the on-line form available on the website around 9am that morning. By noon, the owner had contacted me and by 6pm that evening we had met and we both knew that the match-up was meant to be!
The experience was exactly as the site said it would be, from arranging the initial "meet-n-greet", to the moment I picked up my 4-legged friend.
There was never a question of money(???), as that is handled through the organization, not the owner.
Both the owner and I followed along with the "rules" and suggestions offered by the site and it all went as described.
Two years later, I am looking at another adoption, through this organization.
Thank you to GetYourPet and Good Luck to All!

Amazing and easy to use!
Get Your Pet is a wonderful site to find and rehome pets! A lot of the reviews on here say they got scammed, that's because they only click on profiles of dogs that are obviously fake, aka little tea cup dogs and french bulldogs... The pictures are obviously lifted from instagram, etc! There's hundreds of legit animals on this site looking for homes and only a few scams, but it's like that on any site you go to! Just don't be stupid when looking for pets... no sane person is going to rehome a $6000 tea cup dog for free. If it sounds too good to be true it is! I found my beautiful little chocolate lab on there and the adoption process went so smooth and perfect! Highly recommend!

Get Your Pet worked PERFECTLY for me
Get Your Pet worked PERFECTLY for me! I first setup a profile on Adopt-a-Pet but got no responses. Then I found Get Your Pet and setup a profile, including a short video. I got several responses within a day and completed the adoption within 48 hours! My little dog Molly was adopted by a perfect family (that lived only 12 miles from me near Chattanooga, TN!) and it was a huge relief! It could not have gone better!! Highly recommend Get Your Pet!
