I have been going to this particular pet food store for a while now. Why? Well... let me explain... THEY ARE GREAT! So they have this awesome special that if you buy three bags of pet food, you get the 4th FREE. AND, you can mix and match. That alone is not why I love it so much though. I like the variety (Well... my CATS like the variety), and the folks who work there are very knowledgeable about all things PETS. in my last trip I had a conversation with a team member about buying grass for my cats and I took their suggestion. I brought this little thing of grass and my cats went nuts. Just another thing to add to make my kitties happy. I've also gotten some tips on OTC stuff I can give me cats when they have some respiratory stuff happening (L-Lysine FYI) and it seemed to help! One of my girls has issues and doing great. They have a huge selection of Stella & Chewy as well. If you haven't purchased this for your dog or cat, you should. THEY love the stuff. The ONLY drawback, parking can be a challenge because everyone is going to Jolibee, it's still doable though, and I'm not taking any stars for that! Just the "quick" tip, GO THERE. Nice people, great selection, and the 4 for 3 deal is great. Plus your pets will appreciate you. read more

Pet Food Express - A snippet of all the TREATS you can get at Pet Food Express! - Pet Stores Near Me - Daly City, California

The staff is always so friendly and I love their policy of being able to return anything if your pet doesn't like it. It shows that the owner really cares about the well-being of your pet rather than the profits. I love the open treat bins because I let my dog pick out his own treats. I have a 83 pound husky mix, so the bathing stations are super convenient. Although the price has gone up from the self-service over the years. I remembered paying $40 for 5 baths, you pay for 4 tokens and get one free. My partner used up our last one and this time he said he paid $60 for 4 tokens. I asked if there was a deal and the seal was $60 for 3 tokens, with 1 free. The jump in price is pretty crazy, but it saves my pipes from clogging. I'm not sure if it's something they can fix, but once in awhile the pressure from the water spout and the dryer is a bit weak depending on the station and it is not consistent. This happened to me maybe 2-3 times and the staff always allows me to switch stations after I had already inserted my coins. Doesn't always fix the issue, but the pressure can be slightly better on a different one. read more

Reese is the realest! Helped me get my puppy his tag made and find his new food. Fuck Petco fuck petsmart. Pet Food express for life

This place is amazing! Great staff (Reece or Reese knows her stuff and is super kind and helpful)! I have taken my dog here for awhile and it is very clean and pet friendly. I would highly recommend PFE Daly City and I live in the Stonestown area. read more

My go-to place to order more kitty litter - I use their pickup function on their website and my order is ready for me an hour or two later. Haven't had issues with them being out of stock on anything that I needed. read more

I especially like the wide dog food selection and the kind staff. The VIP care services are very helpful when you need to get a last minute booster for travel and can't get to the vet. Dog bath options are a must for people with big dogs and tiny houses read more

It's been almost a year since my last review. I still am a loyal shopper at the Mission St store. The new staff is absolutley the most professional and friendly. My Lab, Stella, knows when we're close to the store and starts whinning, and I have to take her in. She loves all the staff also! It seems this store has had a lot of staff turnover in the past 3 years, but the current staff is great, and hope HQ keeps them. I met the new manager, and he's very focused and committed.Reese and the others are perfect. I'm also happy they have a membership now, because I spend way more than I want because this store, it's like a candy store for pets. I have the fussiest cats, and have gone through so many brands , and finally, they like Tikicat, and they like all the varities. Thank goodness, Petfood Express has so much variety because I think I tried them all for these cats. I am more then overwhelmed with the variety though, especially the treats, but that's a good thing for them, because vendors know they are popular. read more

I recently started fostering dogs (and already foster failed, one month in) and therefore have been a regular at Pet Food Express. It's hard to decide what my favorite part is: the deals, the shower stations, or the friendly service. The shower stations are what first drew me here, as my foster dogs don't come in smelling the freshest, haha. As of summer 2022, each shower is $18 (or you can buy 4 so each comes out to $13.50). They provide aprons and towels, and the elevated shower stations are super useful, as they have stairs to get the dogs up to our level, plus hooks to hold onto your dog's collar so they don't move or escape during their least favorite activity. You then use the dials to switch between a shampoo that comes out of the showerhead, warm water rinse, or blow dry. I absolutely love the Buy 3, Get the 4th Free deal that they have (as long as all 4 of your items are within the same category: Dog Kibble, Cat Kibble, Canned Food, Treats, Litter, Toys, Wash Tokens, etc.). Sometimes they are low or out of stock during this period of challenging supply chain issues, but I just check their inventory on their website before making a trip. I just picked up half a year's worth of my dog's food and treats today and saved over $80! Plus, everyone who works here is so nice and is able to find the balance between helpful & eager, while also giving you space to browse at the same time. Between the customer service and the prices that are hard to beat for "bulk" items with the Buy 3, Get the 4th Free deal, I rarely find myself visiting any other pet stores. read more

Friendly and attentive staff, plenty of pet food to choose from, lots of supplies, and even a self serve bathing station, would def return again Sometimes at a pet store, employees just point you in the direction of something and run off before you come up with questions, but today was the complete opposite. (Thank goodness) It was my first time coming here today and I came here specifically for a certain brand of dog food. I found it on my own really quick and had questions about the different choices this brand had. I asked the employees at the cashier for help and immediately Nate came over to answer my questions. He provided knowledge about the brand, was able to help me narrow down my choices, and even gave me brochures about the brand. At checkout, the register was being a little glitchy but he remained professional and the staff that came to help was able to fix the issue. The store was a lot bigger than I thought it would be. I've never been inside until today and wish I had check out this place sooner. There were plenty of different pet food, pet supplies, and even a bathing station. I had no idea they had that here, so we may use it one day! I recommend checking out this place out if you haven't yet. Lots of variety of food and supplies, and great customer service. I'll def being returning with my fur baby next time! read more

Pet Food Express - Friendly and attentive staff, thanks guys! - Pet Stores Near Me - Daly City, California

Nicole did an outstanding job helping my mom and I buy new dog and cat food to buy. She even taught me so many other tips and tricks about feeding my cat after me telling her I just adopted a new cat from my sibling. I am highly grateful for her going above and beyond giving us a variety of recommendations. I learned so many things about what and how to feed my new cat in such a short time. I love coming here. Again, thanks Nicole for being so kind and passionate about caring for our pets. It really does mean a lot and has made our day amidst this pandemic. read more

From very knowledgeable staff and the convenient VIP Pet Care service, this place is great. During my last visit to get my dog's nails trimmed, the display at the front of the door housing multiple kittens for an adoption event toppled off. The. Vet and vet techs for VIP Pet Care didn't waste time and ran over to not only to get the display back up but also checked all the kittens to make sure they were all OK. Although I was next to have my pup get taken care of. The Vet and team's quick action made me feel glad that they were here to take care of those kittens. The Pet Food Express staff in the past also helped me find the right food when my dog just went through the ER for a major stomach issue when she would not eat anything. But with the right advice, she regained her appetite and has been a happy and healthy girl again. Much thanks to everyone here! read more

I don't often write reviews for non-restaurant establishments but this is an exception if I've ever made one. Conveniently around midnight, my Malinois happened upon a skunk and learned his first lesson that when the butt is turned, Mr Skunk is NOT your friend. Subsequently, he took a major face/eye/chest blast of 'perfume'. The service I received/was shown this morning/noon by Mark/Mike (unfortunately I forgot his name, but the manager I believe) and the rest of the crew was nothing short of amazing! I'd be overjoyed to get this level of customer service at a bourgeois type groomer let alone a chain store! Mark took one look -excuse me - whiff, and immediately knew exactly what I'd need (both physically and emotionally/reassurance as it turns out...). He quickly went over how best to go about cleaning the odor with a brush he selected in combination with a deodorizer I had previously purchased elsewhere then directed me to the self service baths. Both he and his crew went out of their way to make sure I had everything I needed: even went so far as to keep my Mal happy (as could be under the circumstances) with treats and assured me that I could stay as long as needed regardless of time limit at no extra cost. I ended up staying for nearly two hours 'wash-rinse-repeat'ing the process and the crew even made sure to check in occasionally to make sure I was doing all right/hadn't drowned. They even let me wash/scrub out my Mal's transport crate in their wash area! Talk about going the extra mile! Thanks so much for making my first (hopefully but probably not last) skunk encounter as smooth as it could be! read more

Pet Food Express - My Eye!!!! - Pet Stores Near Me - Daly City, California

I went to this location years ago out of convenience but never had a good customer service experience there. My transactions there are not complicated. I know what I need, I find it and bring it up to the register to check out. Every time I found the clerks to be unfriendly, un-engaged and ungrateful for my business. I stopped patronizing this location but never said why. Recently, I found myself needing to go there for some dog food. I hoped there would be new, better trained and pleasant employees. No luck. Honestly, I don't think their customer service could be worse. There is simply no reason to be so rude to an average customer. Guess I learned my lesson. I won't be back. I'll be looking for alternatives to PFX. read more

This is my go-to pet store! Being from SoCal, I had never heard of Pet Food Express until I moved up here. I always have a great experience and the workers are super friendly and they have given me some great recommendations on products. I also like that the store isn't too big like some other pet stores and there aren't a ton of aisles to look through, but they have all the essentials. They also have a great return policy so I've been able to return items that ended up not working out for my dog. They also have a pet wash station which is super cool. I haven't been to any other locations except this one, but will definitely continue to going to their other locations if I move. There's also ample parking in this lot which is always nice. read more

Since my last review a lot has changed. I decided to come back here and wow i remembered why this was my go to store to begin with! I'm so happy this store really showed me how a business can turn around their customer service and support. Tasha always helps me out and she is super knowledgeable on what I need! Thank you! read more

If I could have given zero stars I would. I've been coming to this PFX for years an it used to have good customer service. Not anymore! I am done with the sh*tty customer service and total attitude these employees have, they act like they're doing you a favor by talking to them. They're constantly rude and don't help you at all and I don't understand why because their pet products are so expensive. The least upper management can do is train their employees in some basic manners! I hope corporate reads these complaints because all the stores have young imbeciles, working there! Ugh! I'm so done! I'm so angry at the way I was treated by a quote "manager" is unacceptable. Goodbye! I'm going to Petclub! Much Cheaper there! Bye! read more

Albert at the PfE in Daly City is incredible! He goes above and beyond to ensure my pup has whatever he needs always! Recently we ran out of our Kiwi dog food due to supply shortages and Albert called all of our nearby stores and ensured our pup had the supply he needed to eat for at least a month! We are so thankful for his incredible service! read more

We live in Daly City area but now we have decided to go to Millbrae just to avoid poor customer service. We won the sweepstakes from a dog food company and we advertised this location on our Instagram which is unfortunate. So whenever we come to claim our prize, which we get every month, they always initially try to decline us from using it and inform us that they don't take the coupon and they have to contact the manager. Last time we went, they entered it incorrectly (because they didn't even bother to read it) and did not provide us with the correct item plus the Female staff that "helped" us gave us attitude. This will be last time we visit this branch. I suggest management educate the whole team when it comes to manufacturer coupons to avoid poor customer service. read more

Came here for the self serve dog wash station, first time customer of this chain and this particular store. The staff was great! Very friendly and helpful, you can tell they really love animals. The wash was top notch, you get 25 minutes for your 15 bucks, a multi function warm water wash and rinse nozzle with several shampoo options, a blow dryer, an ample supply of clean towels and an elevated station that's easy on your back and has anchor leads to keep the dog from jumping out. Our big dog loved the staff and was super excited to get a treat and do some tricks for them. This is our go- to place from now on, absolutely A+ recommended. Plenty of easy, free off street parking too. read more

All the staff here are so friendly and knowledgeable! Definitely our favorite place to go wash our pups and look at what new things they have! Jax and Daisy enjoy all the attention and treats. They let us know that they're going to be raising the prices for the pet wash soon but are having a promotion this weekend. $100 for 10 wash tokens! What a great deal! I didn't catch the one employees name who helped check us out but we appreciated the heads up about the pet wash price going up and also a thanks to Travis for being so knowledgeable and answering all of our questions! read more

Very bad customer service here at the manager level. I hope this review can help train employees at this pet food express. Hope the area and district managers can see this review and create an action plan to improve customer service. Currently, all the pet food express stores have honest kitchen goat milk (powdered form) on sale. The product is located right next to the cashier, on a small shelf. The original price was $16.99 and the discounted price is $13.99. There are two forms for this product, one is the cat form and the other one is good for both dogs and cats. The reality is both forms are on sale. The manager (with black hair) at the store told me only the cat form is on sale at $13.99, but the one dog form is still $16.99. She even checked (or looked at) the computer and confidently told me the dog form is not on sale. The question here is - did she type the code for this product on the computer at this time? Or did she just give me a random answer? I walked out of the store, called the stores in Pacifica and SF right away, and confirmed that both versions are on sale. I went back to the store after the call verification, she typed in the code (the dog form) one more time and it was indeed $13.99! She was mistaken that the dog form should be on sale. Wondering what was she looking at the first time when she checked on her computer. The other person (who was also a manager according to this manager) almost overcharged me as well. I bought 7 chews, and she scanned them 9 times. I caught it before I pay. Please improve the store staff's professionalism and treat the customers with respect, especially at the manager level. Here are a few things that the two managers at this store can improve based on the job description for the store manager at pet food express: - Eagerness to learn, you consider yourself a lifelong learner. -- I received no apology from the manager with black hair that she was mistaken regarding to the dog form, that the dog form was indeed on sale! Please treat your customers with respect and learn from your mistakes. Don't always think you are correct. I was confident that I was correct, so I called the other two pet food express. Yet the manager was so confident that the dog form was NOT on sale LOL - Demonstrated ability to set standards and hold team members accountable -- as a manager, please set high standards for yourself. If you are not doing well, how can the staff be motivated to do well? - Commitment to delivering an outstanding customer experience -- my experience was awful. - Become an expert in pet parenthood and nutrition staying up-to-date on new products, industry trends, developments, and opportunities, and sharing your knowledge with your team -- not understanding the product fully after reading the product. The price that was given to me was wrong. In my case, both probiotics powdered goat milk is on sale. For customers, please double-check your invoice before you pay. Try to call other stores to verify information if you are certain you are correct. One thing to add- this review has nothing to do with the exclusion criteria for buy 3 get 1 free product. Just a review for the three things I experienced 1) poor customer service; 2) the manager gave me the wrong price; 3) the other manager who almost overcharged me. read more

The staff here is always very nice and welcoming. I recently came for the VIP Pet Care Clinic and it was great! I've been searching everywhere for the flu shot for my dog because there's a shortage right now. I walked in, signed up for the virtual queue via the QR code at the door and was seen immediately. It's fast, efficient and no fuss. read more

I came here to wash my dog today and the store was lacking. The store was out of plastic collars to wash my dog (which is typically offered) and no soap coming out of the water. When I asked the person who was cleaning the dog wash area about the collars he abruptly said, "people stole all of them". Also not every wash are has a bottom latching system, therefore, I had to climb up to dry my dog. Due to all of the tugging from the wash, my dog's collar broke; if I knew that the collars were not available, I would have brought a different collar or went somewhere else. I've been going to Pet Food Express for ~15 years and this is the worst store so far. Visit the Millbrae or Burlingame store. read more

The staff here are always super friendly. I was stressed because I found fleas on my dog so I stopped in to see what they had. Someone immediately came to help me and explained all the differences between the products. What I appreciated the most was that the person helping me didn't try to upsell me too hard. He helped me choose what was best for me given my situation. It's actually crazy how knowledgeable these guys are. They walked me through all the steps on dealing with my issue. The cashier who helped me checkout was also really nice and friendly. I love the buy 3 in a product category and get the 4th item free. read more

My dogs love this place (we'll, I like to think they do) as it is conveniently located where we live. It's like a 5 minute drive from our place for this one-stop-shop for everything your pet needs. The best part is the do-it-yourself doggie wash station. After taking our dogs to the beach, we often come here to clean and shower them. This beats cleaning them up in your backyard or in your shower as we all know how back breaking a work that can be. And, you don't have to clean up after it's done. Our Lab, Maxie had a so-so experience her first time as she didn't know what to do and what to expect. After several visits, she'll gladly hop in the tubs and gets ready for a rinsing. The water is lukewarm so it's comfortable for both the Master and Pet. They have different settings and shampoo selections to your preference. I always go for the Mango scented one as I am biased towards anything tropical. Our Bichon smells like hard boiled eggs as my youngest son recently discovered so this helps to get the smell off. Amazing how my son was right on about her smelling like hard boiled eggs. So typical, he's always thinking about food. I wonder who he got that from? (guilty) So back to the scene: You can buy a token for $15.00 for 25 minutes. That's more that enough time for us and we usually take care of both dogs in that time frame. If you're coming back, I suggest you get the special buy 3 and get one free deal. It's totally worth it and saves you money in the long run. So after inserting your token, you just simply shower, lather, rinse and blow dry. You can bring your own shampoo and brush as well and towels are provided by the staff. It doesn't hurt to bring extra towels if you have a big dog to dry. You don't have to worry about getting wet as well as matching aprons are also provided for your convenience. They have small and large sized aprons and are both adjustable. The best part about this place is the staff. They are always friendly and helpful. They will even pass by to give your pets a treat or two. You can tell they are animal lovers and love the work they do. They are very engaging which makes your visit very comfortable and relaxing. I'll give you a secret...other owners usually takes way less than 25 minutes to shower and dry off their pets. If you get lucky, you can use their remaining minutes to dry off your pets. read more

I just love this place! The staff is super helpful, their reward program gifts us great gifts and treats and their liberal return policy ever has me afraid to try something new! Thank you for all you do for Cyprus. read more

Shoutout to Isaac and Tasha for holding it down. Made my trip to PFE smooth as can be.

I decided to try this store, since my regular spot, PetSmart, in Westlake, closed. Travis was amazing. It was time to upgrade my cat's food, if I can afford better coffee beans. I said I was looking for Wellness catfood. Without being preachy, he explained why my cat might like Kasiks cat food. He was so right! And, I am so grateful he didn't just point me to the Wellness food, but asked questions, and offered insight. I wasn't expecting that kind of customer service. Thank you, Travis. My cat loves her new food! read more

I cannot recommend this place enough!!! The customer service is immaculate! The staff is very knowledgeable and makes you feel like you are part of their family! Every staff member I have met has been very helpful, Stephanie recommended great products for my puppy to help with teething and recall training, the lady with the pink hair recommended kibble that my puppy absolutely loves and Tasha recommended a probiotic because my puppy has picked up a grass eating habit. I always leave this location with my wallet empty but with a big smile on my face! I never feel like I am being pushed a product just to meet a quota. Their help is genuine and I will continue to come here for all my pet care needs!! read more

Very Good Services & a Portion Of My Purchases Goes To HUMAIN SOCIETY. Love This Store

This chain is one of the most expensive - I've ordered from them before. They do have same day shipping, that is great.... BUT three of the items I ordered , (they contacted me after the order was placed), are not available. So I had to take a smaller more expensive size. And one can was half crushed. So now I'll wait days for a refund- I've also asked them for a clear invoice-not hand written so can understand all the subtractions- if I shop with them again- I'll go in person or buy online with another business. read more

I only came here for the self-service dog washing station. The shampoo they provide is so watered down, it doesn't even foam and I was applying it by the handful. So I pretty much paid $20 to spray my dog with water. read more

This place continues to demonstrate good service from friendly workers but I didn't need their help this time. I'm just going to have my dog try a new brand of dog food every time he runs out. Seems like they're suppose to ease into new nibbled every time. He seem to take a liking to that taste of the wild.. previous from this time but he got real beast from eatting it! Need to cnarefully read the instructions next time since he is only 7lb I Dont want to over do it. The new lack of wellness grain free ocean formula has instructions at the bottom of the pack wish it wasn't so hard to find .. almost thought they didn't have it. Again this PFE has a pet scale located by the door. if you could get your pet to hold still standing or sitting on it it's pretty accurate!! I love it!!!** read more

VIP PETCARE ROCKS!!! Affordable prices for superb service for our fur babies! My pup got a cocktail of treatments here mid August 2021 & they were able to get him up to date with his shots as well as fit in a nail trim! Also the company has a hotline that answers phone calls with actual human beings who are informative & patient. If you need pet records, get them emailed directly to ya! I tried to support Vetco, but found PETCARE VIP instead & so glad I did. Yes they do wander around in various locations with different time slots, but for what they charge & the professionalism, prices & friendliness of this company it's worth a go! PRO-tips: 1. Call or email the company for updated info such as times & what not. 2. Always get the $15 off coupon. They do accept them after every service!!! 3. Try going to the Stonestown Petfood Express cuz the Micro Dog park in front is bomb for folks who want to kill time before or after the vet clinic. It's got everything your pup needs. So no need to drive to another dog park when it's right on site alongside pet supply shopping & vet care!!! read more

I go here way too often- I love spoiling my pup! Pet food express has a wide variety of dog foods and brands that many places like PetCo and PetSmart don't carry such as Nutrisource. Nice selection of dog beds, supplies, treats, etc. I see a lot of supplies for other pets like cats and birds as well-but I can't speak too much to those as I only own a dog as my pet of choice. Employees here are very knowledgable and always willing to help! I always have a positive experience coming here. And of course another big plus is I'm able to bring my dog in the store! read more
