    They have great knowledge and are really helpful. A wild baby bird lost and came to my house last night, I didn't knew it's breed, I was trying to leave him in my backyard so that he can find his family. But he was following me and coming back to me. Then I tried to arrange a cage and some food for him. But he was not eating anything and injured himself in the cage. So I came to animates this morning for some solution. Then the nurses here met me and they found out his breed first which is "Common Starling" and suggested some food for him. He really loved this food and having it every hour 😃😃 He looks like more happy now. I am trying to leave him for some time in my backyard but he's not going anywhere else, just coming back to me. I think he found a new family ❤

    Excellent shop for all your pets needs!!from high end premium gear to budget,soo a variety of pricing options. A great shop to bring the kids for a cheap ZOO visit cozz they got heaps of little critters in here as well az a wealth of knowledge about animals/pets and the products they stock. I went in to find a new walking type harness for my Beautiful American staff x,and come across a very well mannered and knowledgeable male staff member that lead me to the right spot to look, He was awesome and put me onto the right harness and his story supporting the strength and comfort of the harness was soo helpful that I had to see a pic of his beautiful red nose pitty x. Great shop and a few free car parks close to the door..recommended based on my experience

    Great location except there was not much parking directly outside from what I could see. The store is spacious and really well laid-out - I was able to find what I needed very quickly. Staff were friendly and approachable, and processed my purchase promptly while making sure my loyalty points were accounted for.

  • 5/5 Candice O. 3 months ago on Google New
    The team know their stuff and are full of helpful tips. Prices are high for the product and some of them too high for what you get. Overall Animates is a good shopping experience for your pet.

    I brought a Fluval fish tank from this store over the weekend, and I dealt with SAM, who is a fantastically polite and educated employee. He was quite animated and went into great detail about the fish and the tanks. Overall, every staff member seemed to sincerely care.Highly recommended SAM and the store .A++++

    WONDERFUL, large store. Impressive wide & varied selection on pretty much anything you may need/want, with all types of quality brands on offer. Good price variety of everything you can think of that accomodates for all budgets The staff are knowledgeable, friendly and very happy to assist, even when I was in a mad rush the second time I shopped there & with only 5 mins to shop + with a specific yet still vague idea of each item I had listed to get Puppy set up. I had no idea where anything was or if it was in stock! I had a girl go above & beyond in assisting me personally to find everything both trips to the store that same day. Also, as an extra "wow that's awesome customer service" bonus, the sales assistant remembered me from my 1st time in the store 2 days prior, so it was a nice touch to have someone already familiar with what I had and what I still needed to get etc.. made an impact as a shopper!! The 2nd trip was to grab some extras after the basics bought during the very first trip. We were trying to settle our brand new rescued puppy in at home, so my experience was, due to my own lack of planning, hectic, yet with the assistants help it went oh so smoothly & much less stressful! LOVE that pets are allowed in store. Our 5 month old puppy got to choose her own toy, which helped immensely as I spent 20mins stuck when trying to choose between 6 large durable, interesting, all different, fetch/snuggle/chew toys in my arms, puppy quite happily came over & went straight to one of the 6 I was holding, & signalled that, 1 in particular was her choice!! haha 🥹😄.. absolutely no hesitation,.. she knew exactly which one she wanted, so she happily carried it around in her mouth, then to the counter for me! haha🤗🫠. Also our puppy had not had a chance to socialise with other hoomans or dogs as of yet, aside from 2 grouchy neighbourhood ones barking at her, however, I had trained her on behaviour around other dogs and she got to have 5 happy interactions with friendly owners as well as gorgeous greetings with other older, though smaller dogs also out shopping, she also signalled which treats she wanted which made shopping for what she would love MUCH easier!! Another dog had a wee accident in one of the aisles, I was very impressed to see the accident being cleaned up thoroughly within about 3 mins of the incident happening. Staff are quite confident in making recommendations and not necessarily to upsell, which was a relief, as I much prefer a product with good reviews and popularity, over a product merely being more expensive, unless of course, it is justified. **Wheelchair parking: None specifically that I could see, but all 3 times we visited at different times of the day, 1 weekday and 2 visits on weekend days though busy, we got parking right by the entrance. **Wheelchair accesible/friendly; VERY. Flat & wide entrance. Wide aisles to accommodate disabled. **Parking in General; Ample and right by door. **Cleanliness; 4/5 **Customer Service 8/5 - Exceptional EVERY.SINGLE.TIME!! **Range of products; 5/5 **Quality Products 5/5 **Price; Ranges from affordable to luxury brands and all natural items **Online shopping as well as click and collect shopping + delivery options **Sales & Discounts; Ongoing discounted items are still quality with decent affordable prices for all animals **Extra Services; YES- A shampoo station for dogs and cats with products you can use. Highly recommend Animates Glenfield Cheers Anna-Maria Muir

    Recently switched vet to Animates GF. I'm so happy and impressed by the care we received this will now be my go to. Very affordable too, a third of the price of my last vet. They even called the following day to check if puppy was O.K. Highly recommend 👍

    Awesome friendly staff, and knowledgeable. They go out of their way to make sure customers have the advice they need, even if they have to find out from another staff member. They seem to genuinely care.

    Staff at Glenfield are always keen to help and very knowledgeable. Dog lovers always a bonus. I got what I needed and was able to fit the harness to size.

    Recently visited and the best experience! I was welcomed and advised, given the full run down of becoming a new pet owner. 100% recommended!

    Great place. Good selection. You can bring your pup in. Amazing help. They'll let you ride the lion "Sheldon" in the back, but you have to ask.

  • 5/5 Jontie W. 1 year ago on Google
    Great store, the staff are knowledgeble and the products are good value. I am always welcomed when I enter and they are only too happy to help if I have any questions. I have a puppy and they gave me great advice on what to feed it and how much. My vet even said their advice was spot on.
