  • 1.  Get Buddy Adoption Site?

    Posted 04-22-2026 12:16 PM

    Has anyone used the site Get Buddy to help with adoptions? We are getting a lot of emails from them and not sure if anyone has any experience with this! Would love to be advertising our adoptable cats in as many places as possible but don't want to waste time setting it up if its a scam! Would love to hear people's thoughts!

    Hi Farrah - My name is Ryan, and I'm the founder and CEO of GetBuddy and I can assure you GetBuddy is real :)

    Before starting the company, I spent years volunteering with different rescues in the Bay Area and NYC, fostering animals, and have adopted many pets myself (my last is a wily German Shepherd, named Charlie, who I got from Ark Charities in CT. All of this gave me a real appreciation for how much organizations like yours take on every single day.

    Based on this, I saw that there was no real functional technology to run rescues, and the pet listing sites everyone uses are antiquate, owned by Nestle and Mars and are capitalizing on pet owners and rescues.

    Over the past couple years, my team and I have built out a full rescue management solution and fully mobile and pet listing service - both are totally free. We now work with thousands nationwide.

    We're a B Corporation and our mission is aligned with all shlelters and rescues. Id love to connect to understand your rescue's needs and see if GetBuddy can be helpful.
