I am lucky to live a few minutes away walking distance. Mo is one of the nicest guys out there - he goes out of his way to help you and is super fun to chat with. His dad is also very nice and helpful. My dog always gets extra treats and they are open late. Support local!!! read more

The man who owns this store was NOT nice to me. He either doesn't like Asian people or is just rude to new people, because he was perfectly kind and affable to people he knew (who were also not Asian). So I was in the neighborhood and wanted to patronize a local store to support local business. I wanted a pet brush for double coat fur dogs and a harness. There was no one else in the store, but when I asked for some help on which of the many options would be appropriate for the dog (which I had with me), he was gruff and couldn't be bothered to give me any guidance or info. I ended up standing in front of the carousel of brushes and googling reviews. Then, after paying for the brush, I asked for his opinion on the size and choice of a harness. Without hesitation he recommended a medium size for my small shiba, and let me try the harness on her. However, before ringing up the purchase, he again was blunt and pre-emptively said, "no returns on this one, okay?" I wasn't planning on returning it, but it surprised me that he would say so and say it in this way. Was I being profiled? I'm not sure. It didn't feel good to be treated this way. I reassured him I don't live nearby and didn't plan on returning it anyway, and we wore the harness out happily. It wasn't two weeks in when my dog started wiggling out of the harness on its tightest setting. Come to find out, she really fits a small (because I got her a size small in the same model, and that fits her perfectly). I think the items I purchased were very basic things for a dog, and the lack of care and customer service on the part of the owner left much to be desired. I will not be back. read more

Friendly, efficient, good selection, and if they don't have something, they will go out of their way to get it. They also deliver. Best neighborhood pet store. Glad to know they're around. read more

My favorite neighborhood pet store! Always has what I need. Great selection for both cats and dogs. They even get weekly deliveries of fresh wheatgrass (cat grass)! And the owners are friendly and always bring a smile to those walking through the doors. read more

Always friendly. Always go above and beyond. We are lucky to have them. They consistently have more than i need though never up sell.

Visited today and found guy working there to be super helpful and kind. He was on the phone when I came in, but almost immediately HUNG UP (I know, right?!) and asked if I needed anything. So I tested the, "They said they'd stock it for me," testimonial (see D.N.'s review below) and- sure enough! My bunny's recycled Yesterday's News litter and Oxbow Oat Hay are in the works for their next order. Plus, they do FREE scheduled (often same-day) deliveries. LOVE. And though not a huge store compared to one you'd find stranded somewhere in suburbia (eww), it's definitely a BK luxury to be able to move freely in between aisles without getting tangled in a leash or chew toy. Yay, space. BONUS: They have pics of customer's pets (Greenpoint cuties!) taped on the wall inside the door; as I was leaving guy says, "Make sure to bring us a picture of your bunny!!!" C'mon, Animal Planet. You had me at "Hello". But "... bring us a picture of your bunny!!!" sealed the deal. I AM SO THERE. read more

Thank god for Animal Planet. The prices are affordable, most of the time beating those at Petland 'Discounts'. The owner and his sons are beyond nice, they really take pride in what they are doing. You can find almost anything you need for all kinds of pets here, and it's super clean and organized. If they don't have what you are looking for, they'll order it! They even have a wall of pets in the neighborhood, inviting people to post pictures of their pets. I recommend this place above all pet stores in the city, it's really a great selection of products! read more

This is why we need to support small businesses. The owners are super attentive, friendly, and knowledgable. They special order items and give discounts on bulk purchases. They are open 7 days a week and close at 9pm, which is pretty convenient. Oh and say hit to Kobe and C.C., the two shop cats. Don't forget to bring a picture of your pet(s). They'll post it on their wall of loyal customers. read more

This is the best pet store. I am so grateful to have them in the neighborhood. They have almost everything you could find online and at reasonable prices. Support a local family owned business and shop here! read more

After reading all the good reviews, I decided to cross the Pulaski bridge with my dog and come over from LIC to see what this store has to offer! Unfortunately, I didn't get the same service as some other people did. I didn't feel that my dog was welcome into the store as the owner told me he had to stay close to me because of the cats. Instead of putting the cats in a different room or area, he told me I shouldn't go into the aisle where the 2 cats were because they would attack my dog. Then I felt bad about just checking the store out without buying anything, so I figured I would get a toy for my dog. I asked some questions to the owner, who didn't answer any of them because he didn't want me to come back to him saying he gave bad advice. All I was asking were questions like, which toy is the strongest between two, or what's the most popular toy he sells, which ones he gets good feedback on, etc. Nothing! He didn't even try to show me other toys, he just said that all toys are the same and they will get destroyed at one point or another. I agree, but please try to help me out! One more things, and this seems to be the same at every small pet store apart from the big Pet Smart or PetCo, everything is so dirty and full of dust! I ended up buying a dog toy, but I washed it at home before giving it to my dog, it was just so dirty! I will stay on my side of the bridge in the future and go to Pet Island where the owners are really trying to help! read more

Extremely reliable. Every occasion I've ordered delivery from them it's been correct and on the timeline they note (they deliver at night after the store closes). Thanks for making it easy guys, super appreciated read more

What a great store to open up just a couple of blocks from my home! They have just about everything that you or your pet (cat, dog, bird etc.,) could want and many other items that you may not think of. Plus they will order in anything that your 4 legged baby may want and deliver it to you for free -- woohoo! The store is very clean and well laid out, the staff are incredibly friendly and obviously animal lovers and their 2 cute kittens are to die for. Couple all that with the best prices in the neighbourhood and you have one happy mamma with 2 satisfied cats....meow :) read more

The pet store around the corner from my apt was totally out of my dog's brand and were not restocking until three days later. After getting nowhere with two other pet stores that were slightly more conveniently located, I took the B43 up to Animal Planet. Super nice owner and their prices beat out even what I could find online. EVO is not cheap food -- Animal Planet cares about providing a healthy selection for your pets. Not sure of their delivery area but they were very nice about coming down to me by McGolrick Park. A+ service. read more

huge store with everything you'd need. seems like the space is a little too big for their stock, which gives it a warehouse feel. the guy at the counter was friendly. prices are what you'd expect. and it's right around the corner form my apt. word. read more

This place offers exactly what I need for my cat. It has a nice selection of nice organic hard and soft food as well as the less expensive varieties. Two sweet cats follow you around as you make your purchases and the two guys, father and son, who own it, are really nice and very helpful. It's purrfect! read more

There are quite a few locally-owned pet stores along Manhattan Avenue in Greenpoint, and this one is my favorite. It's run by three guys (presumably a man and his two sons), and they were always so friendly and helpful whenever I went in. More pros: - As another commenter said, they're open until 9PM - They have 2 adorable cats there, Kobe and Cece (Kobe, the orange one, is very inquisitive and affectionate) - They post photos of their customers' pets all over the wall by the door, and have encouraged me to bring one in of my own - They almost always had what I needed in stock, and if they didn't, they'd offer to order it for me This is just a really great place. If you live above India, it's your best option! I'm sorry to have moved and not be able to go here anymore. read more

This family run business is the best. They take good care of me and my neighbors and have really earned these 5 stars in the time they have been open and serving the neighborhood! read more

They stay open til 9:00!!! I work in retail and so most of Manhattan Avenue is closed by the time I walk home, but I can always get to Animal Planet by 8:40. Phew! The prices are reasonable, the family are great people. I love not having to carry heavy bags of litter more than half a block home. Sure I could get my canned catfood a few pennies cheaper at some chain store, but I would rather those pennies go to this store and it is worth it to not have to schlep 40lbs plus cans of food on a bad ankle more than a block. Also, as my cat ages, he needs more specialized stuff than in his youth. Animal Planet has a fantastic selection. read more

This place is legit. I've lived all over Greenpoint for the last five years, been to all the pet stores many times. This one is by far the best. Solid prices, but honestly that isn't even why I go there. The store is run by good guys who like animals. Friendly vibe. My Stella always pulls towards there when we walk. A couple times a week I allow her to pull me in. They give her a treat, I buy a bone, she carries it home proudly. Animal Planet has become a place we both really like to go. Could you ask any more from your pet store? read more

They don't wanna sell you anything they can. They care about the pets and are willing to find with you the best solutions about food/toys/litter etc. Great place. read more

What can I say that hasn't already been said? This place is a gem. I'm in almost every day since I live next door, and my dog is obsessed. They never care that I usually come in just to do a lap with my dog on our daily walks. When I do need something, the prices are the best in the neighborhood. Service is incredible, and I think they even offer delivery if you need. Definitely deserving of 5 stars. read more

Very good pet supply store with reasonable prices. They carry Wellness brand products for dogs.

Owned and operated by two of the nicest people in Greenpoint. Always there to help you make a decision and/or shower your dog with treats. Our little guy LOVES going here, and we do too. This family-run business is definitely worth the walk from our apartment. read more

Great local place for pet supplies. Walking in for a new bed for my black and tan coon hound and walked out with a nice one and some new toys. The owner gave some advice on food for her and gave her some treats. I have found my new place for my Buffy! read more

It's worth the trip down Manhattan Avenue... really nice guys behind the counter, 2 store cats that come over to say hello & birds chirping happily make this a pleasant place to shop! They have a terrific selection of products & reasonable prices. I casually mentioned I was buying the last of a particular cat scratcher & was told we'll get more for you. Service... how delightful! read more

Great store, clean, plenty of great food for my dogs, Abady, Primal they have it all. Always well stock Definitively recommend it read more

This place is honestly the best pet store in G-point.. They are family owned & will go out of their way to help you. There were a few times that they didn't have what I was looking for so they ordered & stocked them for me.. Don't be afraid to ask for something you're looking for.. If they can get it for you they will.. This store is truly a rare find.. read more

This pet store is very nice to have nearby. It is organized and has a variety of food and supplies for our pets. The owners are very friendly and informative too! And I'm always looking forward to petting their cats at the store :) read more

Excellent selection, super-friendly staff, reasonable prices. We love going in, even just to say hi (and mooch a treat). They actually like their customers' pets, which is not the same experience I've had at some pet stores. read more

Extremely friendly staff , very knowledgeable about pets and even feeds my puppy treats and posted my puppy on the wall of fame

This is a great pet supply store. They have a full inventory of a wide variety of food and litter, etc. including excellent healthy brands of food like Wellness, Weruva and Kats in the kitchen, and eco friendly litter. The man who owns this store is very friendly and helpful, a person who creates a neighborhood feel and means it. Two silly store cats and a few squeaky birds greet you when you cross the threshold. I just moved to greenpoint and I'm so grateful to have found this excellent pet store. read more

Hubby and I have a menagerie at home, at one point 3 cats and a demon in the shape of a dachshund, we're now down to 2 cats and the demon. We were so excited when Animal Planet opened two blocks from our place, now we wouldn't have to wait and get deliveries from NYCpets in Williamsburg. What we didn't know was just how friendly and caring the owner and his sons are. Anything you need that they don't have they will order it for you. Recently another customer had mentioned holistic frozen pet food and the next week the brand was available in the store. I love that they also deliver so I don't have to try to juggle 2 bags of pet food, 25lbs of cat litter and the demon on a leash. The demon loves Animal Planet because he always gets lots of treats from the owners. Animal Planet is the type of establishment that has disappeared, great product selection, friendly caring owner and a very pleasant environment. I wish more businesses were like this. read more

I love animal planet. Aside from being genuinely nice people they have everything you need and are fair about policy and prices. My dog drags me in there whenever we walk by for treats. I love when businesses operate on trust and care about their customers (and their furry loved friends). read more

Animal Planet is great - the selection of food and toys is extensive and if they don't have something you want, they will order it. The prices are fair and the owner is always willing to answer questions. It's a family owned business that cares about it's customers - both animal and human! read more

The folks here are very very kind and will order all sorts of things for you. Highly recommended.

Wonderful store. I have actually never had such a good experience in a pet store. The customer service was perfect and they carried every brand and item that I was shopping for. Nice!! read more
