You manage an animal shelter, taking in pets that need help and caring for them as they settle in. Keep their spaces clean and safe, provide food and water, and attend to their health and social needs.
Spend time with the animals by petting, playing with, grooming, walking, and training them. Treat animals that need medical care, and match each adoptable pet with a potential family based on the animal’s traits and the adopter’s preferences.
Use adoption proceeds to maintain, decorate, and upgrade the shelter. Staff can take on some routine duties, while city locations offer opportunities to find and help animals. You can run the shelter solo or share its work with friends in co-op.
Players who enjoy the game often point to its cute, varied animals and the satisfying routine of caring for them and finding them homes. Some also appreciate customizing and upgrading the shelter, and say working through its tasks with friends can be enjoyable. These positives are frequently qualified by complaints about bugs and other interruptions.
