    #myboybeau loves all of their treats!
    Michelle N. H.

    I cannot speak more highly of the owners Marla and Kelley, they put their heart and soul into each treat. Thoughtfully, playfully and with care. I purchase cookies every month for my boy, always speak to the owners so keep doing what onto are doing for our fur babies and our community!

    If you've never seen a dog go to town on doggy ice cream, you haven't witnessed pure joy. My fur babes and their dog pal all went nuts for their peanut butter banana ice cream, and it was a perfect treat on a sunny and 83-degree day. They also snacked on 'pup-cakes'. Items are gluten-free, grain-free, and dairy-free. And these treats were hand delivered by the owner, and everything arrived packaged nicely and the ice cream kept frozen in their special packaging. I highly rec this business, whether you're ordering for your fur babies or as a gift for another dog parent... enjoy!

    What an experience! From start to finish I can't say enough about this place. I called and spoke with Marla the day before my sweet boys 1st birthday - worried it wouldn't be enough time to get the large cake they sell - but it was plenty of time! We ordered the 6" round peanut butter cake and it did not disappoint! Our 6 dogs LOVED it! We even had leftovers. Customer services was above and beyond; they texted me the morning of with a photo of the cake letting me know it was ready. When we went to pick it up I had to restrain myself from buying a little bit of everything; ice cream, cookie treats, fruit treats, etc. Marla even made sure she came out to say hi after talking to me the day before. We will definitely be coming back for cakes, treats and they even have social events! We are so happy we found them, being new to TX it was such a treat!

    I can't say enough good things about this place. Drove by and saw the sign so I decided to swing in. Cute shop with friendly people. They have such a variety of designs and my dogs absolutely loved their treats.

    Called short notice seeking a cake and treats for our mini poodle's birthday party at Happy Snoutz day care. Marla and her team made it happen and I picked up in time for his pawty. It all looked beautiful and nicely packed and seems the doggies loved it all! Best is no upset stomach whatsoever despite feasting all afternoon. Great service and products, highly recommended!

    This place is so cute!!! The owners were so wonderful when we walked in and really cared about my dogs experience. We got a small cake for my dogs birthday & they decorated it for us which was so sweet. Definitely will be back - my puppy loved it!

    His 4th Bday cake

    First time order cake from this place and definitely love it. Marla is so friendly and willing to work around with my schedule. The cake is beautiful. I've been order cake for my dog the last 3 years and it seem like Pumpkin didn't like it much ( we had to throw away the cake because it was so hard, I meant hard!!) he actually love his 4th Birthday cake, he asked for more after his first slide! Overall definitely love it here. Beautiful cake and I'm sure it taste good as well. Thank you Marla for all your help! Highly recommended

    Treats

    This is a wonderful place for dog lovers to get treats and to spend time with their pups! My pup and I came here for the first time, on a Saturday afternoon. We came in and were greeted with a delicious smell of the baked goods!!! My puppy started sniffing and attempting to reach out for treats while I took in the smell (which reminded me) of freshly baked coconut desserts! A lady came over to greet us and was very helpful. She explained the variety of treats and services, provided the list of ingredients, and gave us a tour of the establishment. She was very patient/helpful to me and my pup despite that we came in the last hour to closing. In addition to baked treats, they have variety of party hats, ice creams, meaty chews (chicken, beef), cakes, and mini muffins. They have an outdoor area for dogs with seating areas for paw parents which also, can be rented for a paw party. I got an ice cream, treats, mini muffins and meaty chew-chicken. I opted to open the meaty chew-chicken that I bought while at the store. The glass container was sealed tight and the moment the lid popped open- Wow!!! it smelled fresh and yummy! It did not smell like any other meat jerky with so many other ingredients. We got home and my pup liked everything we got. I am coming back next time to get more. This is a place where every dog lover should come and get treats for their doggies!

    6 inch cake, peanut butter

    We absolutely loved our cake for our baby's 1st birthday. We bought the 6 inch, made with peanut butter. Staff was absolutely amazing, so kind and welcoming. It was our first time there and they gladly showed us around and explained all of our options. The shop was so cute, clean and organized. Had many options to pick from. Will definitely be purchasing from them again.

    We love these cakes!! Delicious for dogs and humans We've ordered three cakes on separate occasions and each one is unique and so cute. Also, we love that they deliver. We will continue ordering from them!

    This is Cass. He was dropped off at a Petco because of dire circumstances of the family. Cass had…read morestressed so much because of the situation that he had plucked all of his feathers off but a small ring around his neck and the ones right on his face. He had no wing feathers, tail feathers, crest feather, covered in sores, bleeding in places, .... he was stressed. At this time Cass was only 8 years old and his pet parents were older and the mom was ill. The family found out she had cancer and she shortly passed. Then because of all the bills, the house was foreclosed upon. Dad didn't know what to do when he needed to go into the hospital and he didn't have a place for Cass. He stopped by a Petco that I worked at and asked about boarding. I explained that at this moment we didn't have boarding and referred him to a Vet Clinic close by that I knew was familiar with birds. He explained that he already checked with them and it wouldn't be feasible. Here Cass was wearing a sock with the toe cut out because he had plucked all his feathers out and was mutilating himself. I explained to dad that Cass could be relinquished and we could make sure he received medical care. Two days later dad brought Cass back and relinquished him. We weren't set up for a Umbrella Cockatoo. I personally bought the cage that was appropriate for him and the food that he was used to. He had already been through hell, I wasn't going to make him deal with more changes. That first day we had him at the register while we were getting things ready. He perked up, started bobbing and swaying, started singing, and he was going up to each person that checked out saying "what, what" . I took him to the Vet that I knew had bird knowledge to tell me how to help him. They basically wanted him on birdie Prozac. They stated that he was nervous because of all the changes in his life and he needed to be medicated. We did that, he didn't pluck but he wasn't that stimulated bird interacting, playing and talking animatedly. I took him to another vet and they gave him a silvadeen spray for his chest in case there was something wrong with the skin. The sores healed up quickly but he still didn't seem happy. I took him to a third vet, Dr. Grana, she had worked at the Zoo for awhile, then went to a regular clinic. She said that she wanted to make a few calls to her vet friends at the Zoo. I get a phone call from her the same day as the first appointment. She told me stimulation was what he needed. I spoke to my District Leader and told him a little about what was going on and that I had adopted Cass because of all his needs. My DL said that I should do Meet The Critter events with him so people would understand the needs of big birds. So it started, for 4 years Cass was a regular at the store for Meet The Critter. He would talk and Play with people, he would get bored with one situation and climb down to go to the next. We found that he loves Taylor Swift and that he understands some Spanish as he yells "baile baile ". He has regulars that come in that he sings to so they will come pick him before they go shopping. He has us trained. When I tell people about birds, I let them know that birds are perpetual 3 year olds. The toys have to change often, the interaction has to be significant and they can be destructive and throw a temper tantrum. Cass finally got to the point that I can lay him on his back and snuggle with him. I felt as proud as a mother whose child said their first word. The day he said "want some " instead of trying to take the food out of my hand was another great day. The day I realized he didn't like hoodies, but hats were fine was another growing experience. Or the day I found out Cass was purposefully pooping on me because he was mad at me.... that was interesting. He is a 3 year old trying to teach me to understand his moods, his nuances and his language. He's smart and he's going to outlive me. I received a crash course in what can happen if all the little things aren't paid attention to. Do I know everything about birds? No, but I keep asking and keep growing with knowledge because I have this forever baby that I have to keep working with. Petco taught me that people might want a pet, but that some people might not need a pet and it's okay to say no. I have never gotten in trouble for telling someone that we couldn't sell a companion animal to them. Petco puts companion animals first.

From the moment we walked in, the energy was warm, welcoming, and genuinely kind. The store manager, Summer, was beyond pleasant! She is friendly, attentive, and truly authentic in the way she interacted with both customers and pets. This is the kind of customer service that makes you feel valued and keeps you loyal to a specific store. My baby doggy, Chai, loved everyone in the store. The staff was so sweet, patient, and engaging with her, which made the entire visit feel relaxed and enjoyable instead of stressful. On top of that, our experience with the mobile Vetco team was outstanding. The veterinarian and vet tech were incredibly kind, gentle, and thorough, taking the time to explain everything and making sure Chai felt comfortable and cared for throughout the visit. Between the amazing in-store team, Summer's leadership and genuine kindness, and the wonderful Vetco staff, this experience truly stood out. It's rare to find a place where customer service feels this intentional and heartfelt. This Petco has absolutely earned our loyalty, and we will continue coming back because of the people who make it such a positive experience.

The grooming team (CeCe, Ozzy and Kim) do a wonderful job on my dog's nail trims. He's quite dramatic when getting his nails trimmed but they put him at ease and take their time to trim his nails well and shape them well too. I appreciate it when they know he's kind of anxious and treat him well with pets and positive reinforcement. They do such a great job. This location is one of the better organized and managed stores I've frequented. They have a good selection of food, treats, and toys for your furry friends and their staff is great.
