The name says it all. "One of a kind". I've been to plenty of petting zoos, but this company's is by far the best I've ever seen. We had them come out and bring their 30 animal zoo to our 2 year olds birthday party. Adam and Aaron were so great with the kids and had so much knowledge on each of the animals. The animals were so clean, so shiny and very lovable with the kids! They made the birthday party so special! If I could give 6 stars, I would.

Absolutely loved my experience with One of A Kind Pony Party! A two-person team brought a rainbow unicorn (pony with rainbow spray-painted hair and a very nice headband horn) to my house for my daughter's birthday and took her and some other kids on rides (leading the pony by the halter) up and down the street. They traveled all the way from Waxahachie to Richardson for the party. The pony was very calm and inviting, even around squealing children. Prices are so, so affordable for the great services you can get! The animals look happy and well-taken care of as well. I will definitely be using One of A Kind Pony Party in the future. Thank you for a wonderful day, y'all!
