Visitor tip
The animals are rescues and the single owner is knowledgeable about each animal's care and behavior. Ask questions during your visit to learn educational details about the animals' backgrounds and proper handling techniques.
Visitor tip
Kids consistently highlight the cows as a favorite, and baby pig holding is a popular activity. Plan time for hands-on interactions with these animals, and wear clothes you don't mind getting dirty.
Visitor tip
If visiting in October, consider booking horseback riding experiences available every Saturday and Sunday from 4-6 PM for an enhanced full-day experience beyond standard petting zoo activities.

What visitors say
Stopped by today just as a last minute thing. I didn't know it was by appointment but the owner kindly welcomed us in anyways. The turkey was the first animal to greet us fluffed up and all 😂 honestly, it may not be what your expecting…
Was just a fun time. Able to see teacup pigs, cows, horses, sheep, goats, ducks, and so much more. All this is ran by 1 AMAZING woman who knows her stuff. You will not be disappointed.
We just love this Rancho Los fonseca petting zoo. It was so much fun and we learned so much about each animal.
