    Leilah's 4th birthday stuffed toy, dress, and bday cake
    Leilah M.

    Went in not too long ago to buy my baby some bday stuff. I was a little sad that Oscar was no longer there. Oscar helped me shop (my last visit) and suggested stuff to me if they didn't have inventory on things that I wanted. Don't get me wrong, the new guy I saw was nice, but every time I asked him something, he gave me the same answer over and over and over and over of "you need to email the owner". In my mind I'm thinking "I have an hour to kill to find bday stuff, SELL ME SOMETHING!!!" I ended up leaving with a stuffed toy, a birthday dress, and a cake. Not too sure if I'll be back.

    The giant cut on my dog (scabbed over).
    Zippy L.

    They cut my dog during grooming and shaved giant chunk of skin off. When I picked him up the guy at the register told me that the groomer had an issue with tangles but that's all. I didn't think anything of it, maybe he had a small bald spot or something. But NOT that they cut him. I saw it later that night--it was hidden behind his ear and it was huge. I got busy with work and didn't get a chance to take photos earlier. But here's what it looks like now--all scabbed over. My dog is extremely calm and docile, so there is no reason why this would have happened other than carelessness. I just moved into the area and this groomer is the closest to my house. So disappointing and disheartening.

    Medicine where groomer cut his ear.

    My Pomeranian chihuahua mix's hair was getting a little long and his normal groomer is out of town for a couple of weeks so I came by here to try them out. The groomer cut my dog's ear, something that has never happened in his 8 years of getting groomed. I've seen him groomed before and he will stay motionless on the table the entire time so how a groomer manages to make a slice in my dog's ear is beyond me. His cut will heal in time but he's not coming back here.

    I've really grown to love this place. I used to get distracted by the doggy outfits but they are amazingly well-stocked with useful items for such a small store. They have great antibacterial rawhide chews, pill pockets, and breath freshening dog treats. Julia, the owner is super helpful and let's my dog Roxy, try on all the costumes.

    Worst business ever
    David B.

    Worst service ever. I was waiting 5 minutes before anyone helped me and a woman rudely asked "and what do you need?" I asked if they had paw soother and was quickly interrupted with her response. " no we never carry that" I never recommend anyone coming here that cares for their pet these people obviously don't have a true love for animals.

Our maltipoo in particular had very difficult grooming experiences prior to Dennise. Dennise is dedicated to serving every dog she grooms regardless of age and temperament. We can attest that she built a strong relationship with our maltipoo that has helped her feel more at ease being groomed (a true feat). Dennise also is the only groomer we have trusted with our bernedoodle puppy which has clearly paid off: our puppy seems to truly enjoy hanging out with all the groomers and other pups when she is in the shop. Dennise is clearly passionate about her work and it is an added bonus that she gives her clients excellent hair cuts. Shout out also to Brian for all of his hard work behind the scenes keeping the business side streamlined. He is kind, friendly, and makes scheduling appointments easy for us which is greatly appreciated. We look forward to continuing to work with Dennise and Brian for many years to come. TLDR; Highly recommend VIP grooming to any dog owners in SF who are looking for compassionate groomers who are passionate about individualizing dogs' care and serving their clients with the upmost professionalism!

They were careless with the lives of YOUR animals. Two dogs without collars or leashes ran out onto the sidewalk behind her and luckily followed her to the other side of the store. They could have just as easily run into the street without collars and been killed! I yelled out about the gate and the lady DIDN'T EVEN REALIZE DOGS WERE FOLLOWING HER. Then she carried one dog back to the other side and the other dog, again without a collar or leash just walked back onto the sidewalk and back to the other side again. They were lucky these two dogs were so well behaved but no matter how well behaved a dog is, they should ALWAYS be on leash when out on the sidewalk. Fortunately all the dogs are safe, but seeing this carelessness I would NEVER BRING MY DOG BACK HERE. If they are that careless with other peoples beloved animals they shouldn't even have a business. Do not trust them to protect your animal while in their care. ** edit in response to owner below: Well it seems other commenters have seen the same, including with their own dogs being off leash outside. So I highly doubt what you're saying is true. Either way, never bringing my dog here again and I'm going to continue to tell others the same. Lastly, if you let shops dogs outside off leash then you are still an irresponsible dog owner. Leashes are required by law for a reason. If you don't care enough about your own dogs to leash them outside, I don trust you with my dogs. You should be fined and your dogs taken before they are harmed.

    I love birds so much and I know the folks who work here do to! I talked to some of them when I…read morevisited this store. But sometimes we love animals in a way that supports their exploitation and harms them. The issue is that this store is misguidedly treating these sentient beings like merchandise by buying them from breeders (possibly even breeding mills, they would not tell me where they get birds from) then selling them to make money. Birds, and no animal, should be bought/sold for profit and in doing so we are commodifying them and contributing to the existing crisis of birds who are already in need of homes. If people stop buying/selling birds, people would instead adopt them from rescues and shelters and alleviate the stress and burden on rescuers while getting animals who actually need homes in to homes, instead of breeding more and more in to existence. Additionally, many birds suffer immensely in captivity and rip our their own feathers out of distress (a behavior that does not happen in the wild) these animals are not domesticated, are highly social and should be living in huge flocks and flying free in their natural habitats. I really hope someday this store will do the right thing and prioritize what is in the best interest of the animals by ceasing to buy birds from exploitative breeders and selling them like merchandise for profit, and instead host adoption events with local bird rescues as there are thousands of birds who desperately need forever homes. I love pet stores and I shop at them all the time as I have 20+ rescued animals I need supplies for. The vast majority of pet stores in SF thrive without selling animals, and I know the Animal Company can too! :) The folks at the Animal Company are nice people and my concerns are not a personal attack on them.

If they haven't had the item I'm seeking, they make helpful suggestions. Longer: I have an extremely picky cat and there have been times over the years I've forgotten to order her special food or the delivery is delayed, so then I go hunting through the City. Plus, I love animals and stopping in a mom and pop pet shop "just to see what there is" happens frequently xD Unfortunately, the Animal Company hasn't carried what I needed in the past, as the cat and dog food selection is fairly limited (yet varied) given the hundreds of varieties of foods nowadays. I digress... just last weekend my kitty's special kidney food was delayed in transit and the lil chonker ate through her last order in record time. Kitty has gotten accustomed to a mix of kidney+core wellness and she let us know allllllll night Friday into Saturday that her food was not right. After two nights in a row of poor sleep, I was determined to find (Weruva) Wx Low Phos tilapia+tuna somewhere in the City. PFE website says they have it, but no stores have in stock (thank goddess I called before trekking). Called a few of the smaller shops around town with no luck. As options were dwindling, I gave The Animal Company a call and imagine my surprise when a cheery voice on the other end of the phone confirmed they did indeed have what I was looking for! It was 4th of July and the person on the phone informed me they were closing early, around 3pm, and put 4 cans of food aside for me. I immediately hopped off the couch and we got on our way to the J. Within an hour I had kidney friendly food plus some kidney friendly treats (!! Wx Low Phos new product) in hand, a full belly (stopped at Subs Inc. across the street), and we were on our way back home. Note: yes, about half+ the store is dedicated to birbs. I'm glad I took some time to read reviews+Rick's responses here on Yelp, 'cause admittedly it made me a lil sad to see some of the birbs in the store, I realize now I subconsciously avoided it. Turns out, many of the birbs in store are being boarded (and very! well cared for). Totally understandable some may look sad given they're in a new environment and very likely missing their humans. I know my kitty would be absolutely out of sorts if taken out of home while I was away (and sure, birbs are different than cats, but these birbs are VERY smart). I've been following a woman on YT, I think a random covid SiP stumble, who has educated me on these magnificent, fascinating creatures (birbs). Even if you never want to own a parrot/tangential, I recommend giving a watch https://www.youtube.com/shorts/ET3cCXsKZ1Q
