    The store always has what I need for my fish, bird, rabbits and guinea pigs. They have a great selection of reptiles you won't find in your chain store. The owners are knowledgeable about what is needed to care for my pets and don't attempt to sell something if the problem can be fixed or need can be met without a purchase. Reasonable pricing on products superior to the chain stores products. The place has a virety of things not available in the cookie cutter chain store. Just a superior place to find what you need for your hobby, passion, pets.

    We went looking for a ball python and were pleasantly surprised with their large selection and extensive knowledge. Justin was extremely helpful and seemed to genuinely like the snakes he was caring for. It smells the same as any other real pet store I have ever been to. The people complaining of the smell must have only ever been to places like PetSmart where it is more like Walmart than anything else and the pets for sale are just considered inventory. I am sure the back rooms of those places smell very similar to a regular pet store. We will be back here for all of our snake's needs.

    It smelled kinda bad. They did have a big variety of animals though. I did notice that the hamsters were housed together. They can stay together until they hit maturity then they need to be by themselves. One hamster per cage. Anyways I got my birds from there. I felt rushed when picking out my birds and felt like I didn't get to inspect them properly. They were housed in a cage with no toys and now I'm having lots and lots of trouble getting my birds to play with toys. I liked that they kept them in a warm room and the man seemed pretty knowledgeable. I appreciated that they were on a pellet diet too. One thing I will say is when I was getting birds the man who was working didn't respond much when I asked questions. By that I mean I'd ask something and he'd looked at me and smile and say very little. In all I have mixed feelings about this place and I don't know if I'll be going back. Don't write off the place but be cautious before buying animals from here.

    Took our cat here to get her ears cleaned and nails trimmed. The groomer(didn't catch her name) was very nice and it was a very quick and affordable visit. Everything went great and will definitely be going back!

    This is the only pet shop I go to. Love the place and owners are good people. I just have to say some of these bad reviews r ridiculous. I mean the place smelled, do u even own a pet? They don't always smell good. And I've never seen dead animals just left there. Animals seem well took care of . I can honestly say I fact checked Mike on info he gave me and he is spot on very knowledgeable.

    I have been here two times 1 week apart. My son is going to get a Gecko. We went to see the Gecko options and spent over an hour being very well informed of what is needed, not needed & didn't feel like we were hurried. The 2nd time, I went alone to confirm a few purchases (my son & I didn't hear or recall the same information & I needed to double check). I wanted to surprise him with a few items for his terrarium, too. This time I was there for another hour discussing the best items for the terrarium setup and size. I would highly recommend this business.

    I got some African cichlids from here and they are great. The ones I got from pet smart died in 3 days.
