What is Reindeer Express?
We specialize in live reindeer rentals for businesses, schools, municipalities, community events, holiday celebrations, and private gatherings.
Whether you're planning a tree lighting ceremony, Christmas festival, corporate event, school program, community gathering, church event, or holiday promotion, our live reindeer create a memorable experience that guests of all ages will never forget. Reindeer appearances are available on an hourly basis with a 3-hour minimum and are customized to fit the needs of your event.
Beyond the holiday magic, reindeer are incredible educational ambassadors. Our programs teach visitors about Arctic ecosystems, wildlife adaptations, conservation, climate change, and the cultural history of reindeer around the world. For many guests, seeing a live reindeer is a once-in-a-lifetime experience and an opportunity to connect with an animal they have only seen in stories and movies.
The presence of live reindeer provides a unique attraction that can increase attendance, generate media interest, and create lasting memories for your guests.

Our Mission Statement
At Reindeer Express, our mission is to educate, inspire, and create memorable experiences through meaningful interactions with reindeer. For nearly 30 years, we have helped the public learn about reindeer history, domestication, husbandry, and their role in cultures around the world.
Many people are surprised to learn that reindeer are a domesticated species and that reindeer farming exists in the United States. Through community events, school programs, holiday displays, and educational outreach, we strive to connect people with these incredible animals while promoting responsible animal care and stewardship.
Animal welfare is at the heart of everything we do. Our reindeer receive exceptional care year-round, and every appearance is planned with their health, comfort, and well-being as the highest priority. We believe that positive, educational experiences create a greater appreciation for wildlife, agriculture, and the people who dedicate their lives to caring for animals.
Reindeer Express is proud to continue a tradition that has brought joy to families, schools, businesses, and communities throughout the Pacific Northwest for nearly three decades. As a family-owned business, we are committed to preserving that legacy while inspiring the next generation through education, conservation awareness, and unforgettable encounters with these remarkable animals.
We are proud members of the Reindeer Farmers Association (RFA), Reindeer Owners and Breeders Association (ROBA), and the North American Deer Farmers Association (NADFA). Our herd participates in accredited health programs, including Tuberculosis Accreditation and Chronic Wasting Disease (CWD) certification, ensuring the highest standards of animal health and management.
Things I love
I love the memories Reindeer have given me! The elderly lady who wished for reindeer at Christmas, thinking how foolish she was since they were storybook characters. We watched tears stream down her face, as we unloaded one of those storybook characters into her back yard.
Another memory is our lady in red, as seen here. She was in her 90's and was all decked out for the holidays. Her family didn't have their camera and it seemed too precious of a photo to pass up. We took her picture and emailed it to the family. She said, "This made my golden years golden!"
We have lots of stories and memories how Reindeer have brought so much happiness into people's lives. Reindeer are our passion and we are excited to share them with others. Doesn't the world need more magical creatures to brighten our days?
