    They sell zombie chew toys- how cool is that?  Our pooch gets a fun chew toy.
    Ric C.

    "My name is Earl" What does this have to do with a pet store? Read on. I'm a fan of the mom and pops as opposed to the big box or chain retail operations where possible. The big boys have their place but in many cases you can't beat the personalized and friendly service of the mom and pop. One such business is "The Pet Shop" in the Maui Mall. Since 1973, this little shop has been catering to the needs of Maui's pet population. They have separated themselves from their big brother counterparts by offering not only "standard" items but also unique pet items including a line of chew toys for dogs that I have never seen before. Like most of us who have family pet companions, whenever I go on a trip I like to buy an omiyage for the pooch. I was delighted to see that The Pet Shop had a fun lineup up of stuffed toys that made my purchase choice pretty easy. With a free rewards program sign up, the items can become even more of a bargain. The employees are very helpful, pretty knowledgable and friendly, very easy to talk to which is always appreciated. So it came to pass that the recent Maui trip produced a cool "zombie" toy for the pooch that has become a favorite chew and toss buddy for her. And the name of the chew toy? Why of course his name is Earl.

    Wonderful, helpful staff recommending several cat food brands for the 3 feral cats that I have adopted (a mom and two daughters!)

    Everything you can get at the big box pet store but it's from your local small town "Mom and Pop" pet store.

However, on…read moreTuesday 3/31 around 9-10 am we were met with an employee named Alex- a female employee with Short colored hair. She was incredibly disrespectful and unhelpful in coordinating an in-store pick up. We expressed that we came early to ensure that the products on our order that were listed as only one in stock were still available. Us arriving early clearly frustrated the employee which led her to communicate in An extremely unhelpful, condescending, dismissive, and rude manner. We expressed that we had no problem, leaving the store and coming back for pick up. She gave us no estimated pick up time, in addition to walking away while I was speaking and having an over all incredibly rude and condescending demeanor. When we returned for pick up we were helped by Rys- who always has exceptional customer service. She is lovely in all aspects. I'd suggest Alex receives additional training on both policy and customer service as her behavior was distasteful enough for me to write this review.

She stated I should've known when I bought the box that it was empty. Why would I think Petco would sell me an empty box, and the cashier that sold me the box didn't say anything when she picked it up to scan it. The manager Melo also gave me an attitude like it was my fault that the box was empty. The manager ended up exchanging the item but slid the box across the counter and rolled her eyes. I didn't know at the time, but later informed by my wife that the manager Melo said "It's pretty f*****g obvious" in front of my children as I was walking away. As a store manager, Melo needs to have better training on how to treat customers. Some of the most unprofessional workers I've ever dealt with. I had to leave a review here because my review was taking down on google.

    Maui Humane Society - Sand + shade make for a nice kennel break!

    A friend and I decided to have an adventure with a MHS doggo. An afternoon walking on the beach,…read moresnoozing in the sand, enjoying the quiet and the sun, and having a bite of Mexican food and a pup cup before returning to the noisy and overcrowded shelter. Our doggo for the day was JT, a smaller black pitbull mix, who turned out to be a real gentleman. JT was happy to join us in our adventure, jumping into the SUV like a pro with a stuffy in his mouth and a wag in his tail, which matched our vibe exactly :) He was such a good boi at the restaurant, ignored the chickens begging from us and took a quick nap under a chair, waiting for a shrimp or a morsel of chicken to be offered from the gods. JT jumped for joy when he exited the car and smelled the sea air, life is good! We had a leisurely stroll along the sands, then he plonked himself down in the shade of a tree to destroy a tennis ball, then sploot out and have a nice snooze with a sandy nose and a smile on his furry face. We gave him a good hour, as it must have been a nice break from the noise of the shelter, with the trade winds gently cooling him and the murmur of the waves in the background. Once he woke up he was ready for the next part of the journey.....a pup cup from Starbucks :) In and out of the SUV like the pro he is, he waited patiently at the outdoor table with our friend while I sourced the pup cup. He wasn't sure for a second what it was then after his first lick he became a connoisseur of pup cups with a creamy smile and a glint in his eye. After a lot of lip licking and grooming we realised it was time to return him to the shelter. Once there he gave us a downward dog bow of thanks and he was off to his hopefully temporary home at MHS. What an adventure for all of us, and so enjoyable! If you have time to take a MHS dog out for the afternoon (12 noon pickup, 4pm dropoff), please, go on an adventure and give them a pup cup and some beach freedom, go jogging with them, take them on a drive and let them sniff the smells of Maui, give them a mini vacation. MHS provide a backpack with everything your doggo will need, blankie, stuffie, chew toy, treats, water and bowl, a safety belt addition for your car. All you have to do is provide a vehicle, time and fun! JT was a lovely boi, very well behaved, and he was a good example of a MHS dog. Unfortunately black dogs are the last dogs in the shelters to be adopted, I know I adopted one myself (I have 2 rescue bois at home), so hopefully there is someone out there waiting to meet JT and see what a fantastic doggo he is....could it be you? Why not spend some time with a MHS doggo and find out?

    Really bummed to leave a 1-star review, but this is based on mine and my husband's recent…read moreexperience. We've been coming to the Humane Society for as long as we can remember and never had issues until this visit. Service: When we walked in, we were greeted, but the lady at the front demanded we sign in. Normally we don't have to because we're just in and out to visit the animals. We love animals, but we can't adopt yet due to our living situation. We signed in online, but honestly, we've never had to do that at any other location even on Oahu. We went to visit the dogs first - the facility there was clean. But when we got to the cat house, the smell was horrible. We've been coming here for years, and it has never smelled that bad before. Opening the cat house door was like getting smacked in the face with a strong, unpleasant odor. As we were looking at the kittens (and we always sanitize in between touching them), a lady wearing a mask walked up and asked, "Are you visiting the animals or adopting today?" We told her we were just visiting, and she walked away. I was barely even touching a kitten's paw through the cage when she suddenly said, "MAKE SURE YOU SANITIZE YOUR HANDS IN BETWEEN!" I told her, "Yeah, I know." There were plenty of other people around us, but she only told us that. We moved to look at more kittens, and even though we had already sanitized, she came up behind us again saying, "MAKE SURE YOU SANITIZE IN BETWEEN TOUCHING THEM." My husband and I looked at each other thinking, what the heck? It felt so uncalled for, especially because she was only talking to us. For context, my husband and I were the only local Hawaiian couple there. Everyone else was Haole, including her. She wasn't telling any of them to sanitize, just us. Honestly, it felt kinda racist. We were minding our own business, doing everything right, and she kept targeting us for no reason. We probably won't come back until we're ready to adopt - and even then, maybe not. I don't see what's wrong with visiting and showing love to the animals. We left feeling really disappointed and uncomfortable.

We had plenty of time & interactions with the goats, cats, pigs, guinea pigs, chickens, roosters & guinea pigs. She helped us to know them as individuals where we saw their little & big personalities. For instance, Matthew, the Turkey, is super cuddly & likes hugs. Henry, the tuxedo cat, also likes to be carried. The property is lovely, a true paradise with blooming plants. She takes volunteers on some days each week, but the admission fee was well worth the time & the cause. This is a great spot for all ages to visit. We stopped at Paia on the way there & back too, so pick up a snack or some kitschy or artsy store time on the way.

There are lots of farm animals in addition to Guinea pigs and cats. It seems the only life mission of the cats is to greet and love the visitors. There are several large tortoises and they love to be brushed! I had no idea they have so much feeling in their shells. They will even fall asleep during brushing! The animals are very cuddly, and even the turkey loves to be held. This visit may be the highlight of my year, and I am fortunate to have many highlights. Laurelee is a treasure.
