Sam was super helpful with making my purchases. He was able to direct me in the right direction when it came to my beta fish.

Cory did an excellent job knowledgeable of pets and products he went out of his way to make sure that I was well taken care of thank you for an awesome and amazing team read more

Need to go back because the little shop is adorable! The animals they have up front broke our hearts so we rescued a medium sized rat. She has ear mites though so I have to get those taken care of. Shop Local!!! The place is very local so definitely support this small business. A little expensive on the cat food but that's alright! It was clean and very busy!! read more

Elliotts For Pets - Our new family member Ruthie the Rat - Pet Stores Near Me - Riverside, California

Our dogs enjoyed going here when we lived in Riverside. They don't care if your dog steals treats from the bins. I really don't like how they keep a rabbit displayed in the glass cage for its entire life, even if they let it out after hours. That's no life for an animal. read more

The staff is caring, helpful and informed. Love coming here and making new discoveries while finding my reliable supplies available. Have successfully ordered through them numerous times, when items I need were not on the shelf. Local business. Employs smart younger staff who are super to work with and set a bar for younger pet owners' knowledge. I saw a post that said the same variety of free bag was not honored when 12 bag required purchase was made to receive free bag. I did not have that experience. I was given same brand. No problem. Great store! Super helpful! read more

Elliot has a deal when you buy so many bags of dog food you get one free well I've always bought an expensive dog food for my franchise Oh 12 bags when it came time to get my free bag they told me to get the cheapest food that they have for sale they would not let me take the bag that I've been buying previously, they wanted to charge me extra that is a rip off. You have these young kids working there as a looked at my phone number and my history it shows what I bought there and how much I've shopped but I would not recommend a place like this. It's not like they're gonna go bankrupt $80 a bag of dog food every two weeks I would not recommend this place. My choice is TOP DOG It's not as big, but you can find what you want. The staff is really nice and helpful. You can ask him a question and they can answer it was experience not like those young kids at Elliot's . This place is located off of Van Buren. They honor the same dog food as they do the same special. read more

Great selections. Great, helpful staff! Everyone are so eager to help and right on top of it!!!

Love the selection !!! I was helped by multiple staff and acknowledged every time someone passed me. Good place for pet supplies.

Elliot's is my favorite local pet shop. I love bringing my dogs here, after I take them to the groomer as a treat for them. Selection: you can find some gems in here from their refrigerated section like goats milk meant for the fur babies. I also love getting duck head treats for my lab at home. The tiki cat prices are better than petco's and that's great for me and my cat because he loves them so much. Parking is usually easy, some days the lot gets packed during prime times. read more

Amazing Little Pet Store! Everyone there is pretty knowledgeable, and very friendly! Has pretty much everything you would need for any pet! Love just stopping by and looking at all the animals they might have. read more

Good sized selection of dog food, a bit less for cats. Plenty of supplies for the other pets, too. It's a good local pet supply shop.

Good prices great selection Variety of products for all animals I can always find what I am looking for but they can order it if the item is not good n stock read more

I like Elliott's. They have a good selection of cat food & toys - they carry my brand of cat food and I almost always find a new toy for my cats while I'm there. Seems like they get new inventory pretty regularly which is nice, always seeing new items. They have reptiles, mice, fish, bird, and dog items as well. They have a resident bunny, Midnight, who is not for sale but very cute to look at and pet. Private parking lot. Customer service has always been fine. read more

Love this store, reasonable prices and very informative and friendly ..If your looking for something that's your place

The employees working here are surprisingly well informed about just about anything I inquired about. I've learned a lot about what to buy and what not to buy from their knowledge. I am learning how to care for my new pet buddies. It was very helpful. Thank you for all the help. read more

Their selection is great. Aisles of collars pet medication n play toys You can buy snacks out of barrels so you can choose to fit your budget. Customized pet tags. Community board offering services etc Wednesday is discoubt for seniors? They employ our neighborhood kids. Super helpful read more

really wanted to support mom and pop shops when my dad said he wanted to surprise my son with a new fish tank filled with neon fish. my husband and i made it a point to both go and properly inform ourselves. but despite that they gave us all the wrong information. we asked what was allowed in a 10 gallon tank and they sold us 12. 9 days after we got them 5 unfortunately died. they also said to feed 3xs a day but its only supposed to be once. we went to petsmart because it was closer and they told us a 10gallon tank is meant for 5. thanks to the staff there we are now better informed. read more

I've been coming to Elliot's for probably 30 years and have always gotten stellar service. Tonight was no different. It's nice to see that when I go in there's a bunch of employees that seem like they're having a good time at work and are still very attentive to the customers. Each time I go someone greets me and is more than willing to help answer questions. This isn't the case with many places nowadays and with the young employees that Elliot's has it gives me hope for today's youth. Great job Elliot's for hiring great young men that have a good work ethic. Shout out to Jake tonight for great customer service. read more

They always seem to have whatever I need and over the years, in rare times when I was searching for a rare item, the owner has ordered it for me. I wanted dog food out of Canada, and he got it for me. I love this place. And the people that work there are all super friendly and helpful read more

I come here 1-2x a week for feeder fish and other supplies super helpful staff and excellent customer service 10/10 prices are way better than petco/pet smart never have problems going here after 2 years staff always ready to help out recommend coming here for you pet supplies read more

Prices were high. Lay out was not organized. I felt like I had walked the store 5 times and finally asked where the bird food was. No wonder why I couldn't find it.... Out of site with the out of site prices. Made the trip down the mountain from Big Bear hoping to find better prices than Petco and I wasted my gas. read more

CHRIS was annoyed when being asked for help during our visit. Such a horrible experience when i simply asked to get frozen mice and crickets. CHRIS Don't blame paying customers for your life choices of having to count mice and crickets for a living, and then get upset for then being asked for help! read more

I like the size of the store, not to big, and it is close to my house. They have a wide variety of pet food. Plenty of help. read more

They carry an amazing selection and the staff has always been friendly and helpful. Glad to see family owned pet stores are still in business, it makes me appreciate the service even more since it's not a huge chain like everywhere else. read more

Elliotts For Pets - Glo fish! - Pet Stores Near Me - Riverside, California

I was recommended by one of my co workers about this place, bought my turtle (Boba) some snails, rocks, live plants, feeder fish, food etc. I really love this place, they have everything you need here from pet supplies, medicine, pet snacks, just everything! Sometimes you want to walk into a store and see the stuff you see online, I would rather support a local pet shop than amazon at times. They have friendly staff always willing to help out when you need it, on Wednesdays they have some discounts Store wide (except dog food) but hey it's still a little bit off my total which always helps. Since I discovered this place, I have been coming almost every week on my day off from work. I will continue to support this store! Would highly recommend this pet store! read more

Great service! This is gonna be my new spot from now on. Good prices, Compared to other retail stores.

Went to buy the normal 20 lb bag of Merrick Backcountry dog food which was stickered at 65.99, it rang up at 69.99 and they would not honor the sticker price. I asked to speak with a manager and she told me that the sticker was wrong and I had to pay the additional $4. The $4 was not the issue, the false pricing is. I've gone out of my way to support my local business instead of ordering the same food delivered to my house. I will no longer be using Elliott's because I am not supporting these deceptive practices. Very disappointed at the bait and switch tactics being used here. I've been buying all of my pet food and supplies from Elliott's for many many years but will no longer. read more

Love this place! From the 1st owners, too Mark and his staff. Plenty of pet foods and toys! Beds, grooming products. Shout out to Evan and Miles Soto. Went there yesterday, was looking for a certain cat food. KD prescription Hill, cat food, my cats older and has kidney problems. Couldn't find it. The young man was so helpful with asked the one gal that works there. She informed me that they do not carry it. It has to be okayed by a vet because they have no vet on site. I had no idea about that so I learned something new yesterday. So support this local business. read more

They convinced me to switch my dogs food flavor same brand just a different flavor they said she wouldn't get sick if I switched the flavor so I took their advice she got sick immediately after the eating her first bowl of dog food with the new flavor don't listen to these teenagers advice I should done my research by a professional customer service isn't great and they are unorganized I won't be coming back read more

Wow! The superstore for pets! I stopped by here to pick up dogfood. They actually had the brand and the flavor that my dog likes. In addition to a variety of pet food (premium and some more mainstream brands), they had accessories, treats, and OTC remedies. Also saw lots of freeze dried food products. Lots to choose from and they also had supplies for reptiles and fish. This store is better than the chain brands. The store also has plenty of parking in the back. BTW, the main entrance is in the back by the parking lot and not off the street. Will be back here again in the future. Shop at Elliotts and support local business. read more

Updated review: Another stop in for a few things and the staff was yet again five stars all they way around! Very pleased with the friendliness and helpfulness of the staff. Great job team! Original review: Been coming here for years, but this last visit questioned if I've left them a review or not...five stars all around! Spent Saturday with my fur baby and decided after a morning filled with running errands, we'd support small businesses in our city. The staff is insanely friendly and helpful! No need to lift any heavy bags of kibble, they will take care of you! They are also very patient when it come to puppers and shopping. The store is very clean and organized. And have a huge variety of product for all animals. And while I was shopping for my dog, I notice they had dry dog food, lots of assortments of treats and even cooked/wet dog food. Overall great store and customer service read more

Elliotts For Pets - Another visit to Elliot's pets for a new toys and no-hide chews! - Pet Stores Near Me - Riverside, California

Kid was extremely unprofessional. Had me waiting with other clients with nobody at the cash resgister for 10 min then when he does come with his coworker looking stoned.. like he didn't have us waiting. Then gives me the wrong change and thinks it's funny that I'm frustrated and has the audacity to text someone as I'm waiting for the rest of my correct change and laughs again. Grow up read more

Thank you so much for hiring well educated fish personnel. It's wonderful to know your being heard & given excellent advice. I had no idea that there truly are compatible fish for your Betta! A lot depends on how aggressive his personality. Possibly starting with a very young & small Betta. But please, don't take my word for it. Ask the fish specialists. Most of all, have fun & enjoy your water pets. Betty read more

I always go here to buy my critter babies and pups food, they're always very helpful and help take the dog food to my car. And I love big momma read more

Well, I have been a fan of this store for a long time and they have some great deals, but I went there last Wednesday as an employee picking up stuff for my boss and there wasn't one employee around to help me. I needed the largest bags of rabbit and guinea pig food possible- I found 25lb bags on my own- But I'm not kidding that I said loudly, "Does anybody work here?" And I got no reply. Usually I'm not helpless- lol But since it's on the bosses dime and my time- it just makes sense to get as much as possible and I had back surgery and I'm trying not to have another one. I even made a point in telling the cashier "No one helped me" Because seldom do I want, or need it- sucks when I do and it's not available. Also, to the manager- When most people get good customer service, they tend to spend more. read more

I come here for fish. Everything is mainly healthy and all. But like every other pet store you'll run into sick animals especially fish. The prices are great especially on the reef fish the tanks could use some cleaning but I get it just to hold the fish til someone buys it. The reason I didn't give 5 stars is because every time I purchase a fish they end up with ick but no big deal. I just think cleaning and maintenance would prevent this. read more

I come here all the time to get my bunny Timothy hay since they have such a wide selection. I decided to get my bunny some of the Bunny Banquet pellet mix that I didn't know has Corn. It might be the Kaytee brand but you're able to pour it yourself into plastic bags. Feeding your rabbits corn can cause serious digestive problems in your rabbit. Just to let you guys know! It also has peanuts that have no nutritional value it's more of just a filler. I also just noticed there are bugs in the bag that Im pretty sure didn't come from my house.. i just threw the bag away. I wish I could post a video. read more

Great store. Friendly staff and plenty of them. It's not your usual grocery store pet food but more rare. They have just about everything you can imagine your pet could need or want and usually in a large quantity to boot. I like Elliott's because I have been a lifetime member and check out there pet food deal. Buy so much and get a bag on certain brands. I like Nutro. read more
