They had toys, leashes, a bathing area and treats, but we didn't see a selection of dog food. It's possible we missed it, but if not, the store should consider stocking some.

Since Ridgecrest doesn't have a chain pet store and it's usually over 100 degrees, I was very happy…read moreto find this store on yelp, after taking our new little stray pup to the vet. It's a small pet store with large prices, but the owner/employees there were über helpful and sweet. I didn't realize they also have a doggie wash station, where one of the employees will give your dog a nice wash. I went to the store to grab a can of wet food and some soft chewy treats for the pups and found both. The wet food selection is towards the back of the store, pass the bath tubs. This pet store definitely has the essentials of what you'd need but the only downside is there aren't too many options.

As soon as I went through the door I got yelled at, why? Because I have an electric scooter. No…read more"sorry sir, scooters aren't allowed in this store." What I got was a "NO, PUT YOUR SCOOTER OUTSIDE OR NEAR THE FRONT DOOR!" It's not that serious... like what?? I been in this store before, and Ive never had this problem. it's not like I'm going to grind my scooter on their shelves, or go full speed through a bags of dog food. You know what, that's fine, the people at Home Depot are nicer anyway. 10/10 for rude customer service though, that's for sure!

They have a particular item, one I consider a staple, for a very good price, which other stores sell for 2x the price IF they even have it in stock. I think it's really neat that they have supplies for beekeeping. Never seen that elsewhere in person. All the employees I've interacted with have been pleasant and helpful. I like it here!

Their condos are clean and the laundry room next door is also clean and full of nicely folded blankets. Ultimately, we adopted an older female cat and also had our own older male cat fixed and chipped on the same day. The coordination of these two events was organized, accommodating, and seamless. Our boy did not seem to be in any pain, and has healed as expected. Our newly adopted female cat is precious. I wouldn't hesitate to adopt from them again.

She took the time to help me find high-quality food options and explained everything in a way that made me feel confident instead of stressed.

We even tried the self serve spa and our dog Bailey never felt so soft. Her coat was glowing after we just came from the dog park. We're from out of town but we travel in and make this our stop every time. They have helped assist us with getting our dogs familiar with different foods with the samples we get. We get to see what our dogs like and don't like before we commit to it. You don't find that kind of service anywhere else, and it's really nice because it's all dog safe instead of trying to take it into your own hands of trying Google. Place is always clean, well stocked and someone is always around when you have questions or need help.
