“Love At First Sit is deeply humbled and honored to be voted Santa Monica’s number one Most Loved Pet Related Store/Service and Independent Business/Santa Monica Resident Owned! In response to the disparity between qualified pet services that addresses the needs of special needs pets, and access to those services by all communities, including the underserved, in 2011, Carmen Molinari, a first-generation Latina American and long-time Santa Monica resident founded Love At First Sit. A pet care and dog behavior and training company specializing in shelter and rescue pets.
"With a commitment to excellence, their team is comprised of only highly trained and accomplished animal loving professionals with a specialty in working with a diverse group of pets. By achieving premier standards in all aspects of their services at affordable prices, they create access to qualified pet services to all people.
"Unique to their expertise is their devotion to animal advocacy and combating overcrowding in animal shelters. From offering resources and insight to empower pet owners to enrich the lives of their pets, to volunteering at animal shelters, to their Love At First Sit Initiative — a humanitarian labor of love that engages in charitable endeavors, including monetary giving — they strive to make an impact in maintaining the welfare of even the most vulnerable animals, and all of the people who love them. Thank you, Santa Monica, for showing us the love and helping us to do what we love to do!”
Carmen Molinari, Founder & CEO of Love At First Sit
