If you live out in Bedford this might be worth the trip. Everything else is out there so the…read moreproverbial "killing two birds with one stone" would definitely be happening. Funny though, I was really looking forward to what this PetSmart had to offer. Being from the states I'm used to the large warehouse feeling of most places. But the difference is the Petsmart where I'm originally from was less than a 5 minute drive. Now you really have to travel out just to get there and if you're just going to see if they carry your brand of food only to find out they don't it can feel like a waste of time. Luckily I had a friend in tow that was looking for a new cat tree so it wasn't a total waste of time for me. As with most warehouse type shopping experience everything is going to be slightly cheaper and you'll probably have lots of options to choose from but again if you're just going for one thing: Meh. There wasn't anyone there (customer wise) when we were perusing for cat tree's. I don't think this particular location has caught on just yet so the employees seemed overly eager to help us. Two of us vs five of them = too much customer service. But they seemed nice and really I don't blame them if they are having to stare at the windows all day at the empty parking lot. If they put a Costco out there, business would probably be mad hopping. Get your 50 pounds of ground beef for you and your 150 pound bag of food for your four-legger!

Other than that, the store is great! They are very welcoming of all breeds of dogs, which is nice. Price wise it can be expensive, but if you follow their social media and have signed up for the rewards card the sales can be AWESOME!

We found Jennifer and she responded promptly, agreeing to take care of our 16-old-Gus for 2 weeks. What makes her business really special is she provides daily updates and photos of her visits so you don't have to worry about your furry friend back home. Gus is a senior cat with few teeth and specific dietary needs, and she was very caring in preparing his meals. Jennifer also kept our home very clean, considering beloved Gus loves to throw his litter around. She is very reliable and we will certainly be using her services every time we are away. We'd highly recommend her to anyone in need of pet care.

I will never be returning to this location. So far have had…read moretwo horrible experiences with the staff there and I will not be going back for a third. Sunday I had purchased a inflatable cone for my dog at the Elmsdale location, the manager there had told me that if i brought it home and decided it didnt fit/ I changed my mind that I could bring it back as long as it haddent been blown up for full credit, and if I had blown it up then I could get a store credit (which I was fine with). I had left the Elmsdale location and on the way to sackville had decided to return it. It haddent been out of the box, the seal wasn't broken, and I still had the original receipt. Since the sackville location was closer to me than going back to Elmsdale I had decided to go there. I walked into the location being completely ignored by the two workers chatting, looked at the collars and then went to the counter and politely asked if I could return it. The woman who I was speaking to was very rude and told me that she could only give me store credit even though I said I was speaking to the manager of the Elmsdale location. The worker (Anna) was very rude, I had asked to speak to the manager when I had begun to get frustrated, and she had said she was the manager (come to find out, she was the assistant manager, therefore lying about her position). I asked to get in touch with the owner, which I could tell Anna's attitude was becoming worse and she said she would write down my name and phone number and that the owner would give me a call (still haven't received a call). I left upset and drove back to Elmsdale to return for a full refund, and even they couldnt believe that Sackville Pet Valu wouldnt return it. The Sackville location is the closest to my home, I normally buy my dogs food here, but from now on I will be making the drive to the Fall River or Elmsdale location, unless something changes at this location. Customer service is lacking.

Did I just find my new neighbourhood pet shop? After my half-hour long first visit last week, I…read moredefinitely think so! Conveniently tucked in between my house and my favourite dog park (Shubie park), this shop was built as a custom extension off a video rental, pizza place, ice cream joint combination dealie on Montebello and is really quite lovely on the inside! Built around a lovely (and big!) faux-tree, the interior is worth a look whether you have a Fido at home or not. All your pet supply table stakes are on hand: tons and tons of food brands (plus the offer to order anything in that you don't see on the shelves), treats, toys, leashes, collars, sweaters, vitamins and supplements, even cookbooks for home-cooking for your pooch's palate! Now, I could easily stop there and land at a solid three-star but it's the added steps that this crew has taken to enhance the community that really push into four, borderline five-star territory. This I know, again, because I insisted on asking them 127 questions while I was there. Here's the scoop: - They custom-make 'Shubie Snacks' with Kathleen from Tailwagrrrs (my favourite doggy daycare), with all the proceeds going to maintain the dog park at Shubie. I think they mentioned they've raised some $30,000 since August? That sounds crazy...but I'm pretty sure that's what they said. Are you a regular at Shubie Park? You know that gazebo and all the brand new benches? Yeah. Planet Paws built those. - The owner is seriously educated in the pet nutrition (for example, did you know some of the biggest brands of pet food are made by Mars and Nestle?) and clearly very passionate about helping his customers. Long story short: one of my dogs is a delicate flower who can't eat anything without full-body meltdowns. The owner has given me tons to think about when it comes to his health including some options that would basically keep my money out of their hands (non-kibble/store-bought diets, etc.). For him, the health of my pooch is more important. And that's pretty awesome. - In addition to all the mainstream food options, Planet Paws also carried a huge freezer full of raw meals. I won't get into the whole nutritional side of why that's important but will instead leave it at them supporting other local pet food suppliers rather than sticking exclusively with the big corporations.
