I’m Elliott, a veterinarian and farmer in the Blue Ridge Mountains of Virginia. I’m also a husband, father of five, and Army officer who just can’t stop thinking about how to make life and work better for people like me who love animals.
When I started buying highland cattle and miniature donkeys a few years ago, I honestly couldn’t believe there wasn’t already a modern, secure online marketplace for live animals. So I started building Creatures to solve my own problems. I wanted a transparent community for buying and selling, paired with a fun, easy way to keep up with health, breeding, and registrations in one place.
It’s already been a game‑changer for me to have every photo, video, and record in a single profile for each animal. Now I can just copy a link and send it to a potential buyer, another vet, or a friend without having to dig through my photos or track down records every time. Create a profile for one of your animals to see how it works. It’s free and should take less than a minute.
My crazy hope is that Creatures can be the online home for every known and loved animal around the world. I’m glad you’re here!

SNW Noelle qualifies as an offspring of Holy Cross Fergus.
The crew at Next Horizon Cattle have been wonderful to work with while boarding and training our 11 month old highpark heifer.
Their daily work with our heifer, including halter training have really paid off! She is very calm and enjoys having us around.
Im glad I had her spend time with Next Horizon, as they were helpful with all the halter training phase.
