"Marion J., has always proven to be an important and immediate source of knowledge when in need. The contribution of R.A.R.E. to our cold blooded friends is invaluable and irreplaceable."
Jake @ A.W.E. (Apex Wildlife Education)

“RARE is an inspiration to all of us who love reptiles in California, as well as those in New York. Well worth supporting-keep up the essential work!”
Lousia Jaskulski, RVT

“When I received a bearded dragon as a surprise birthday present several years ago, I had absolutely no experience with reptiles. Who was this tiny, sweet creature? And how was I going to take care of him?!Luckily, I found Marion Janusz and R.A.R.E. Marion was available day and night to answer all of my questions...even the silly ones. The advice I received and knowledge I’ve gained have made raising “my baby” a wonderful experience.”
Terri Foltz

“The amount of knowledge people acquire about reptiles at R.A.R.E. is amazing. I have learned a vast amount of information in just the one year I have been a part of R.A.R.E.. If you are serious about getting into a field involving reptiles or just want to learn more about reptiles, R.A.R.E. is the place to go.”
Joshua Osmanski

“Marion has helped me out more than I can explain. She dedicates her time to help reptiles and teach people the proper way to keep them.”
Jay O.

“ When I heard of R.A.R.E., I found a flier at a pet shop and I knew it would be perfect for me because it was close to my house and I love reptiles. When I first went to R.A.R.E. I was amazed how organized everything was by the reptiles. Marion does everything except surgery. She is truly a remarkable person. Whoever reads this really should consider being a member. “
Connor M.

“R.A.R.E. has been such a big help and so great to me over the past 5 years. Anytime I have important questions, or urgent matters, R.A.R.E. has always guided me in the right direction. As a reptile owner, I feel comfortable and confident knowing that R.A.R.E. is only a phone call or an email away, and they have never let me down.”
Shari– Lewiston, NY

“RARE is always there for me when I have a question about, or problem with, my turtles. I never even think about calling my veterinarian.”
Margret

“Any time I need advice or help with any of my reptiles, RAREMar is the FIRST person I call. If there is a problem that she cannot tackle herself, she will recommend you to see the BEST reptile vet in the area, Dr.T. She has never steered me in the wrong direction.!”
Megan K.

“RARE Mar has taken the time to help me learn how to better care for my tortoises. The concern and care RARE has provided is much appreciated. Marion does whatever it takes to help any reptile and I look forward to any knowledge and experiences from RARE in the future. I have more confidence that I am providing a natural environment for my wonderful creatures”.
Audrey B.- Rochester, NY

“RARE gave me the opportunity to pursue my interest in working with animals when others refused by saying I was too young or too inexperienced. In my many years since, as an active R.A.R.E. volunteer, I have learned an innumerable amount of things about the care and handling of reptiles, and had a blast doing so! A constant positive in my life-and a cause I always look forward to donating my time to– RARE has seen me grow up a lot during my time there, and has helped me, very much for the better, to become the person I am today.”
George Arnott

“I would like to thank Marion for the many times she has helped me. Recently, I had taken a large boa from a family member that could no longer care for their pet. Marion helped me by taking in the boa, making sure it was healthy, and caring for it until a good home could be found. She is now helping me in regards to the proper care and feeding of my carpet python. She has never let me down, thanks Mar!
