EPIC Testimonials

A few “THANKS” to warm the heart.

#NOPETLEFTBEHIND

  • "We lost our cat at a forested campground area 800 miles from home. Once Michelle and the dogs got there, I was really impressed at the professionalism of it all. The dogs were able to quickly sniff out the area and narrow our search down significantly. The very next day we circled that path again as we called our cat's name and suddenly we heard meows! It was a close call but TEAM EPIC played an invaluable part in getting him home"

    Esther C. Park, Cat Owner

  • "Michelle was such an amazing source of guidance during a terrible tragedy. She was able to step in and lead the charge to recover 7 animals when time was of the essence to get those remaining lost animals recovered. She was calm, rational, experienced and knew exactly how to lay out a plan. Words don't accurately express the amount of appreciation we have for Michelle and her amazing canine search and rescue team."

    Eleanor Sprinkle, VP, ASPCA Spay/Neuter Alliance

  • "I used to love hearing stories about Epic's rescues when I was her Vet in Charlotte. I knew when my own cat went missing, that I needed EPIC Animal Recovery's help. Michelle and her team were amazing. From providing tips, to designing lost pet signs, to helping me through the recovery process. I was so excited when we found him, that all my animal behavior instincts left me. Michelle coached me through getting to him and getting him back inside safely. Every night when Brice and I snuggle, I'm beyond grateful to EPIC Animal Recovery for bringing him home to me."

    Dr. Lauren E. Birch, DVM

  • "When you lose a beloved pet, you need a professional to guide you to recovery. EPIC Animal Recovery are the professionals. I have worked with them to recover multiple new rescues, the most complex recovery cases. Animal recovery requires patience, diligence, and daily attention. When you bring EPIC on board, you increase your odds. All animal recovery teams are not equal. Hire the one with positive results."

  • "We lost our newly rescued girl a couple of days after bringing her home. We would never have found her w/o Michelle and her team. Epic and Seeker showed us the area she was staying in and Christine made signs and we got to work setting up the food stations the way they showed us. Trixi showed up in the area that Epic and Seeker showed us. Michelle and Christine took time away from their families on Thanksgiving Day, to come out and set a trap. Trixi watched us from a distance. Later that evening, Michelle called us and said "Go get your baby, she is in the trap." Mad rush to trap. Christine was already there waiting for us. We will always be grateful. There will never be a Thanksgiving we will not think about them and their kindness. (One last word... Listen to them, do what they tell you, no matter how against what you think you should do. They are the best chance your baby has."
