The cutest pet shop in Camarillo. I came in to buy supplies for my Frenchies 2nd birthday (Yes I'm a crazy dog mom) and I was immediately greeted by a sweet young woman who was working there. She gave my boys the cutest stickers as we looked around for our dogs treats. We left with cookies, treats and a dog toy. The prices are very fair and the quality is one you can't beat. I will definitely be back for all my frenchies needs! It's nice to support local businesses! read more

Petropolis is the premiere family owned and operated natural pet supply stores in Camarillo and surrounding areas! I've been shopping here since 2006, and have not found any other store that can compare with the amount of customer service, knowledge and experience that their staff can provide. The owner, Shawna is extremely knowledgeable about natural pet health care, all important nutrition (found her vast knowledge of nutriton to be superior to even our vet!) and behavioral issues. Petropolis carries an extensive supply of natural pet foods, kibble, canned, raw, and dehydrated. As well as a nice assortment of natural treats, toys, collars and beds. If they don't carry an item you're interested in, and it's available to them, they'll be happy to order it for you. They've even special ordered parrot food for me that they don't normally stock! The Lantana store has a great self service dog wash, they provide shampoo, conditioner, towels and a dryer. It's so nice to be able to have a clean dog and leave the bath mess with them! They also have Customer Appreciation events with awesome goodie bags and give aways. During the holidays they offer Santa pictures with all monies going to animal charities. Can't believe another reviewer would actually complain about a "loyalty card," they're giving you free money! :o Try Petropolis, for all of your natural pet supply needs. It's the only pet supply store in Camarillo where the owner is honest, knowledgeable, and has been in the pet supply business for nearly 20 years! read more

Though I live in LA, I come up to Camarillo every so often to help out an older friend of mine (she is 82). She has two small-ish and very wonderful dogs, a Mexican Hairless and a Corgi/Spaniel mix, and they usually constitute the bulk of whatever it is we need to get accomplished while I am here--I'm sure you can well imagine just how much she adores them! As we needed to find new harnesses for "the boys", as she lovingly refers to them, we went to both PetCo and PetSmart, finding pretty much the same, narrow field of choices at both places, none of which addressed the special needs of "the boys". So I turned to Yelp, as I do in times of need, to find some smaller, boutique-style pet stores that might just have the variety we were so desperately in search of... To my (at the time) delight, I located PETROPOLIS right here in Camarillo. Though my companion, who has lived here for the past 15 years, had never heard of it and was therefore a tad on the wary side, I was excited that we could find something outside the "big-box" sphere of influence that is the ever so generic shopping extravaganza that is Happy Valley... "They have such great reviews!" I squealed with joy..."and we don't have to go all the way to The Valley!" We walked into the closet that is PETROPOLIS, and though we were the only customers to enter, the two salesgirls were busy with each other and not only did they never once look up from whatever it is they were doing, they never even acknowledged our presence--which, in a space of about 250sf, is staggering, to say the least! We were looking at their dismal offerings of harnesses and leashes, which pretty much fell in line with the big-box crapfest. We were discussing the meager differences not 5 ft away from the 2 salesgirls behind the tiny counter, and still they completely failed (refused?) to even notice we were there! I see NOTHING inviting or different or attractive about this store (save the cool name, but that's not gonna cut it) that would EVER make me want to go there again...EVER. read more

Hands down the BEST pet supply store with the highest quality of products in the area. The staff is knowledgeable about the products and they bring in new items on a regular basis. If you haven't been there you're pet is missing out! read more

Great store. Perfect alternative to those big-box chain pet stores. Petropolis has turned me onto a few alt. pet care products that I really, really adore. My only (slight) issue with the store is that they often run out of the products I'm looking for and don't always replenish them. I'm told to go to their other location, but when doing errands, the last thing I want to do is cross town for one item. Other than this issue, I love this place. read more

Don't waste your time with this place I bought a large bag of dog food for my dog in February and was told if your dog did not like it for any reason they would replace it for something else. That was not the case. 50$ spent for nothing take your business elsewhere read more

Really great pet supply store. The owner is really sweet as are the young college aged kids that work there. Great selection for how small it is. We get all our pet food and goodies here. The other sister store across town has a self serve dog wash station. Has everything you need to bathe and groom your own dog without having the mess at home. read more

I have been going to both Petropolis stores in Camarillo now for quite some time for our little Boston Terrier/Chihuahua mix and we love the store. Every staff member there is very knowledgeable and very helpful. I love just going in and speaking with the staff about pets, pet food and dog care. I highly recommend going to this store to purchase all your pet supplies. They have a great selection of all natural pet products and even if their prices can be beat by purchasing online I would still go here to support them as again they are so helpful and it is great to support local businesses. Thank you Petropolis for carrying such great products and being so helpful and caring about pets! You rock read more

RUDE! Super rude! Very unhelpful and not interested in my business... walked in to inquire regarding my puppies nails and the girl at the counter said, "We don't take walk ups... the groomer is booked a week in advance and we don't have time for that..." walked out. read more

Daniel is the best! This store has everything you need. I always come in for treats/toys/food ect. I brought my dog to the beach and somehow adopted fleas while we were at it; thanks to Daniel for showing me what to buy and how to use the products. Crisis averted!!! If you want a good experience and products that work, go see Daniel at Petropolis! read more

I really love this place. It's wonderful and carries really good food for your pets. The grooming is wonderful and the staff are super sweet and helpful. read more

Petropolis - Iko and Lex got groomed here and the lady who does the grooming is the sweetest. She put the cutest bows EVER on both of them! - Pet Stores Near Me - Camarillo, California

This is by far the best Pet store in Camarillo! At first you may think the prices are high but considering the quality of the products it is a small price to pay. If you want the best possible nutritional options for your pet whether it be dry food, wet food, dehydrated, raw, or some tasty treats then shop here! They also offer bath time products, oral care products, medicinal products, and a large variety of fun toys. Oh oh, and one of the employees hand makes collars for cats and dogs! The grooming is excellent as well as the customer service! Seriously this place is the best of the best for your fur baby. P.s. Not a large selection of leashes or vests due to being a smaller family owned business read more

Love this shop!! We walk by every day with our pups and stop to visit.. they are great with their recommendations. We get all our pet food there! read more

Petropolis, besides being owned by a woman who loves animals is a perfect place to buy my food and toys for my Australian LabraDoodle, Grace. The energy inside the store is one of love and care. Adoptions and charity for animals is high on their list of being a. On scions business. The owner has so much knowledge of dogs and she has helped me with what to give my girl in times of stress. Plus they carry ONLY the top foods applauded by Whole Dog Journal. We make the trip to. Camarillo from Westlake each weeks. Plus. There is an excellent leash free dog park almost across the street! read more

This store is amazing in so many ways. The owner Shawna, is so helpful and courteous as well as her staff. All my questions regarding my wife's cat food were addressed. I really felt like I walked into a "hometown" store. read more

A short time ago I was given a medium sized young dog and as I had never bathed one before, I was at a loss as how to go about going about it at home. I searched the internet for directions and stumbled upon the DYI dog wash at Petropolis. What a deal! They have a separate room all set up with everything one needs - waist high counter, large tub with gentle warm water spray, shampoo, towels and a host of grooming supplies. Initially my dog was very apprehensive and feared the forthcoming ordeal, but after a few minutes he began to settle down and almost enjoyed it. For him the best part was the towel drying which did require an extra towel because he really balked at the noise and ferocity of the blow dryer. The extra towel was $1 but In MHO, well worth it. I would definitely recommend this place to anyone willing to spend the time with their dog. read more

This is my favorite pet store. I don't go anywhere else. They almost always have what I need and on the rare occasion that they don't, they'll special order it for me. All of the staff are wonderful and knowledgeable. I love that they rescue kittens and support the local rescues and the Camarillo shelter. The owner, Shawna, is incredibly sweet and always willing to drop everything to help council you on your pet's nutritional needs. read more

Petropolis is by FAR the BEST pet supply store in Camarillo. The staff is really knowledgeable about nutrition and all things pet-centric. Every time I'm in there I learn something new from them because they care about helping customers choose the best products for their animals. I was confused about my dog's severe itching problem and the owner, Shawna saved me hundreds if not thousands of dollars in vet bills by helping me switch his diet. I love these guys!!! Their grooming service is spectacular too and my dogs come out refreshed and not stressed. If you haven't been there yet -- GO! read more

I like the helpful staff, the quality products for my dogs and cats, and love the grooming service in the back by Danielle. I've taken both my dogs and cats to her- for a "lion cut" for a Persian cat with tangled hair to my large Siberian Husky dog who rolled in a creek bed, she makes them beautiful again. read more

Petropolis is great. I have to special order my dog's food and no one else in town would do it. Petropolis orders it every week for me so that I don't have to have a ton of it sitting around the house. They also always have the frozen bones my dogs love to eat and a the gentle leaders that I can't ever seem to find any where else. read more

Thought I had already written a review, since I love this place so much. My place to get Sam's Yams, the best doggie treats. And of course the best dog food and toys that are hard to find elsewhere. If you want treats and food made in America, you can find it here. read more

I love Petropolis. They have a great selection of dog food and pet toys. My dogs go crazy for the Deer Antlers. Don't worry they are "naturally shed", as that was my first question. The antlers are pricey but my two dogs get hours and hours of enjoyment from just one of them. If they don't have the antlers then get the Himalayan Goat chews! The owner could not be more helpful and the rest of the staff is extraordinarily friendly. Much better than the other slim choices for pet stores in and around Camarillo. read more

Cute store but they raised their prices for BBT Oxbrow for bunnies to $18. I guess they realized it was too good too.

There is a new location in Camarillo as well closer to me, but i have shopped at this location many times before the new one opened. The staff clearly know their stuff and love animals. They sell higher end organic food and products that you won't find at Petco. The new Camarillo location has a self service dog wash. They do Santa pictures at the holidays with proceeds going to charity. My baby loves coming here. read more

This is a great local pet shop. I mostly use them for their grooming services, which are great. No cages for dogs to be placed in and they usually take about an hour! My dog always smells wonderful and has a perfect cut! read more

We recently adopted a kitten and had to purchase a number of items for our new family member. Petropolis is a great little find. It had all the pet food brands we were looking for as well as some great kitty toys. We will continue to come back to this local gem. read more

Today was my first trip into Petropolis and it definitely didn't disappoint! My poor terrier mutt has some arthritis issues and the most frustrating has been in her jaw. She can't open her mouth too wide and it's hard for her to chew on her beloved chewy toys! I went into Petropolis looking for some small treats that she could handle and they were a HUGE help! Walked me through the stuff that I wasn't familiar with, made amazing recommendations for items that didn't break the bank. I will definitely be heading back in the future! read more

Cute store. Large variety of treats. Things you don't normally see. Kinda gross but yummy for 4 legged friends. Quickly greeted and offered assistance. Prices are a little high. Nice place to splurge every once in a while. read more

Petropolis had a great vendor table at the Dogtoberfest event at the Springville dog park. Everyone was so nice and the gift bags were filled with tasty tidbits that my dogs have already been trying out. Even though Petropolis is farther away than where I normally shop, I am eager to come to the store. The representatives are so full of good energy, and that is what every animal knows is what matters. See you soon at Petropolis. read more

These guys are great! They know there business and products! I just love going in there and shop for our babies!

We wrote a letter to the owner of Petropolis and the dog groomer hoping to get some kind of response from either of them and after a couple weeks with not even a phone call apology - we are posting the letter we wrote. This is a huge disappointment because we like supporting local businesses - never this one again. . . . To the owner of Petropolis and Dog Groomer, We have waited over a week to write this letter to process what we feel about the way our dogs were supposedly groomed and every day it feels worse! We brought our 3 small white dogs into be groomed Wednesday November 23rd with your dog groomer. We know her from when she worked in the front of the store a couple of years back and found her to be a very nice person. When I brought the dogs in I asked for them to brought down about half way. The little Maltese had a couple of mats on the sides from the doggie diapers that were used over a weekend but they were not that bad. The other 2 dogs had no mats because we brushed them all a day before bringing them in. She also told us that there was a multiple dog discount which is helpful with 3 dogs. Guess what . . . She sheared all three dogs! We have had these dogs for 4 & 6 years and never has anyone ever "groomed" them this way. It looks like scissors were used - these 3 dogs who have very nice hair, now look like crap! They all had baths 3 weeks before this so they were not brought in neglected. If there was a need to remove all their hair, why weren't we called? Did she think we would be happy with having all their hair removed? There is no way that we could have a little Christmas card picture this year because of the horrible way they ALL look. Why did she do this? I think she needs to go back to school to learn more. This is not the way a dog should look after a professional grooming who is charging $50. a dog!! When their hair grows out enough, we will be taking them to a real dog groomer to have their coats fixed since it is all uneven right now! My husband mentioned the multiple dog discount to the grumpy lady at the front. He said she ignored his question and did NOT give the discount and charged out $150. To pay $150. and have the doggies come out looking like this is outrageous! He tipped the groomer $20 because he said he felt awkward not tipping but honestly it was a huge waste of money because it is embarrassing the way they look right now. When our friends were visiting recently they asked . . . "what happened to your doggies"? By the way, Jonez, the Maltese Shih Tzu has NEVER had mats and has a silkiness about his. His hair right now seems very dry and we are wondering about the quality of the products used to bathe them. This letter has nothing to do with money - if they had come out looking really groomed not only would you not be reading this letter but we would have rescheduled for their next bath as we always do! Beware if you decide to use this groomer - it's been almost a month and our doggies still look horrible and it is cold outside - not the time to shear them!! Shame on this groomer! 3/12/2016 Just to add to this review: We have run into this groomer a couple of times in a local restaurant and she treats us like we are invisible. It just seems so wrong for her not to take responsibility or be even a little bad about what she did to these doggies. I can say that it's been months and the new groomer has brought our doggies back to clean, shiny and really groomed. read more

i really like this place. it's walking distance from the boyfriend's house so we end up meandering on over whenever we feel like spoiling the puppy. it's a small store but obviously run by a very caring staff. they have a great selection of chews, food, toys and bedding. and after we take care of puppy, we inevitably head over to the sandwich shop next door and get treats for ourselves. read more

This store has a great variety of healthy food and treats for my precious doggies...they also carry very cute special collars and "outfits"....Staff are friendly and gracious ..I always exceed my "budget" however...with no regrets!! read more

This is a true local gem. Shawna is an expert when it comes to nutrition and I'm not sure I've ever been in there without asking her or one of her employees a question that leads to many more. I have a 'high maintenance' Yorkie with a grain allergy and epilepsy, and now pancreatitis. She requires a special diet and I cannot imagine getting expert help on what she needs from a trip to Petsmart or Petco. We also go to Jersey Mike's and Dr. Miller's vet office in the same shopping center, so when we go to those places we also have to go by Petropolis to pick up special treats for the pups.. they have an amazing selection! I'm not a 'buy local' person if my local places don't offer what I need, but this is a great store and I'm so happy to support local business in the case of Petropolis! read more

Thanks so much for offering such a great supply package of doggy treats. I received a voucher to redeem at petropolis from Ventura county animal shelter for the puppy I adopted. This gift as awesome. Every single item I received from petropolis was high end quality treats. I'm so grateful to you for having introduced such great food. My 4 puppy's now only eat healthy. Thanks again. read more

I love this place! The staff is amazing. They really know their stuff. The owner is great and so friendly. They take the time to explain the product and give you advice if needed. Very clean. They carry a little bit of everything. Awesome place! read more

Awesome place! The prices are a little high. They have what you need without having to go into these Target style chain stores.

As a dog lover I like a store that carries a wide variety of the most highly rated foods and personnel that is knowledgeable about what they sell. Petropolis does that and more. They have lots of accessories for your best friends and carefully chosen toys as well. The prices are fair. I highly recommend them. read more
