Furbaby all smiles checking out their chews. I liked how exotic some of them were, especially the frog legs and the fish wrapped beef. The workers were super nice too and the selection was vast! Water in the front too for the dogs! I'm so excited to come back. read more

Good and prompt responses to my messaging questions, have not taken my dogs there yet.

I called to see if my dog can get groomed the day of and the worker was so nice and was able to squeeze me in! The groomer Lei was so nice and accommodating to my dog. She seemed very gentle and nice to my dog which I really appreciated because my dog can get a little anxious with grooming. Overall the service was great, the interior is so cute, and I'll definitely be coming back! read more

I love this store. You need something, they have it. If they don't, they'll do their best to get it. Fernando is awesome. I requested for broth and he got it. Very happy with the service, product and all around very helpful people. I always find something new. Thanks Fernando for the variety. :) read more

Expert Pet has been an absolute dream for our Samoyed, Elsa. She has been going there for over a year now, and before that she was under the care of the daycare manager, Thalia, at a previous daycare--so in total, Elsa has been working with Thalia for over four years. Thalia is truly incredible, and having that continuity of care has meant everything to us. Elsa genuinely loves going to daycare--she pulls me to the door at drop-off and can't wait to get inside. She's made best friends there that she clearly adores, which is such a joy to see. We receive detailed updates and photos, so we always know how her day went. What really sets Expert Pet apart is how much they go above and beyond. From fun activities to adorable holiday photo shoots, it's clear how much care and effort they put into each dog. We also love that it's a small, neighborhood daycare rather than a kennel-style facility with dozens of dogs. The personalized attention, thoughtfully matched play groups, and access to both indoor and outdoor space make a huge difference. We are truly heartbroken to be leaving for another city, but we wanted to make sure we shared the strongest possible recommendation for Expert Pet. Any dog would be incredibly lucky to be cared for here. read more

My go to for shopping food and treats for my dog. Friendly staff, lots of options to choose from, great location as well.

We stopped in briefly just to check out the place since we were nearby walking. We were warmly greeted by employees. The place was fully stocked with high quality cat food brands and treats (many of which I hadn't heard of). Also lots of cute toys.  We weren't looking for anything in particular but was told that if there was something and they don't have it, they could probably order it in. A very welcome addition to the neighborhood! I'll be back for cat treats. If the loss prevention officer doesn't greet you immediately, make sure to ask to see him or her. What a cutie! ;) read more

I booked my appointment 5 days before my grooming date, Angelica was cancelled my appointment on that day with a text which I didn't see it, so I went there became no appointment then I was disappointed by them, maybe next cancel by voice call as a better alternative, well I decided blacklist Expert Pet from now on. Dog owners please go somewhere else. read more

Just discovered this shop as I started a daily walking gig in the neighborhood. What an incredible inventory of pet goods. I found a a bunch of treats on sale and stocked up. Nice young man at checkout too and they have a rewards program. Excited to return. read more

Ocean paws is such a cute Pet Store Boutique on Ocean Ave! There's a hidden doggie playground in the back for your dog to socialize or get trained. They even have a pet spa and grooming service. I checked out their everyday dry foods and it looks good! Their doggie birthday cake looks especially yummy that I'd even eat it. Haha. I got some dried chicken and salmon snacks for Koda and he loved it! It's seems like a great one stop shop and there's even social hours for dogs! They all look so happy to be playing in the back. Such good vibes. read more

Angelica has groomed our family dog 3 times now and she's been very consistent. To be more, she's consistent with time, cut and professionalism. Her appointments have not been delayed and time quoted has been spot on. Though our dog isn't difficult she can be nervous and move around a lot. She's shown patients and figured out how to handle the situation. Overall Skye looks good as labradoodle aren't easy to groom. I've went to numerous groomers who's shaved her down due to being matted. I honestly think it's out if frustration. Kudus to Angelica at Expert Pet! read more

Excellent job on our two 50 pound doodles. Location is very easy to get to and nice shop, lots of healthy food options for your pets.

Great place for all you doggie needs. The staff there are super friendly. They have almost everything plus more that you can get for you dog or cat. They also have grooming and daycare services, which are great and fairly priced. Awesome shop way better then going to a chain store like pet I. This is a neighborhood family owner business which we all should support. It's a neighborhood gem. So go support your local businesses!!!!!!! read more

I love take my doggy Ziggy to Ocean Paws! The owner and store associates here love pets and you can really tell by the warm service they provide here! They have EVERYTHING you would want in a pet store - fun toys, yummy treats (I got Ziggy peanut butter gelato), and cute clothes! They also have a backyard where dogs can have fun and join one of their hosted socials! I also took Ziggy here for grooming and he came back a clean, happy boy! I will be coming back to Ocean Paws on a regular basis. :) read more

I reconciled the discrepancy with the special order I put in. We are now on the same page as respects the monthly delivery date (the 9th of each month unless I need additional food which I must order on Saturdays to make the Monday special order deadline.). Hoping it is smooth sailing from here on out. read more

Such a great addition to the hood! My boy Malo loves coming here. He pulls me to the store when we are near. His favorite is the chicken heart treats! He likes all the treats there really, but chicken hearts are his THING. We swing by for play time in their back yard often! We get his ears cleaned here, groomer is super cool and can handle my pup. Owners are really nice! We love it here! See yall soon read more

Welcome to Ocean Ave! Brought my pup in for a last minute nail trim, and while they were available late Saturday afternoon, they nicked the quick so we'll be back in a week to wrap up. My pup didn't seem traumatized, so I know they were gentle with him. I managed to pick up some unique treats out AND schedule an affordable teeth cleaning for my pup. So far, really impressed! read more

Haircut was average, hard to communicate with groomer. Groomer decided not to trim toenails. And pretty much rushed.

brought two dogs in for grooming. One dog not good. Told them that and they sold me small bag of CBD cookies for $36. No problem. I told them I wanted short - they said shaved - no just very short. I picked them up and thought they looked ok. Didn't bend down to take closer look at legs and paws because they were losing their mind and wouldn't stop barking. thought I was doing them a favor by taking them out of shop quickly. When I got home I saw that legs and paws still very long. Thought I would trim myself but then I thought I paid $100k/dog and I should have them do it. Owner said I needed to say something when I first saw them. I know he remembered what that was like but he wouldn't budge. If anyone wants to get their dog groomed I would say go to the Pawber Shop a few blocks away. I would have gone but they were booked solid and I was leaving town. This place had lots of openings. That should tell a story. Very bad customer service for an independent dog store. Will never go in again. read more

Love Ocean Paws! The store owner and staff are always welcoming! The store has cute decor with a wide variety of treats, food, toys, and pet supplies. Came here to get my pup groomed a few times now and have been pleased every time! He's a Maltese-mix so he usually gets dirty fast and has eye stains but they're able to remove it. He comes back smelling nice, very bright, and extra fluffy! My pup really enjoys the cheddar & bacon froyo from here and still loves his Teepee so much! We have yet to come to the puppy socials! Highly recommend checking out Ocean Paws if you're a local or ever in the area! read more

This is purely from shopping here! I was on Ocean to run a few errands & had to replace my dog's nite lite tag. Sadly they don't have the rechargeable one, but I did a twist on/ off o e that is battery operated. Service here is great as they treat each client like a professional shopping assistant. The shop is clean and organized. What makes this shop so special are the DEALS!!! I was able to get 13oz wet dog food cans at just $.99 each at the register! Also a bag of smart bones twists for $5.99! This sure beats Amazon & Walmart.com !!! I can't comment on pet hotel nor grooming since I didn't get those services here yet. I do hope they offer more rechargeable devices because of eco friendly clients like myself. I will return for the deals & the wonderful staff. If you own a pet, please come here & support them because the staff take deep pride in their work & the prices are even better when on sale. I hope Pet VIP will set up a mobile clinic with this store someday in the future. read more

This is a good little pet store that you'll find on Ocean. The building itself is a piece of art, with high ceilings. They have good selection. I have a cat and she likes only a certain wet food, they had it with a discount. There is also chubby Golden lab named Lorax who wanders around the store bringing joy. He's a good boy. The discounts are not amazing, and even though it's in a great building, finding parking in that area can be challenging. But if you're walking down Ocean Ave and you need pet supplies this would be a convenient stop. read more

My hound and I love Ocean Paws. Their staff is friendly and helpful and it's been great having somewhere in the neighborhood where we can get food, toys, treats, supplies, etc. I love that they have a nice space for dogs to play. Their daily playtime for dogs is a great idea; my dog has really been enjoying having the ability to socialize with other dogs again in this pandemic world. read more

Angelica groomed my minature schnauzer today. She did an excellent job, and you could tell she took her time!

My fur baby just had an operation and somehow due to the confusion and stress , I misplaced her tooth brush . I was looking all over for one and I ended up passing by this store. The store clerk was so helpful and unfortunately we were not able to find one that my baby likes. I bought a treat and I was on my way out to search more. The owner called me over and ask me to wait. He went to the back , came back and handed me the same exact toothbrush that I was looking for. I was so happy because I was really looking for that exact one. He also said I could just have it. It is also the one they use for their proffessional grooming . I highly recommend going there because of their awesome customer service. It was a sign our favorite color is green. We have been backed at least twice for treats and my baby Lucky loves it there . read more

The Ocean Ave corridor was sorely missing a retail spot dedicated to our animal family members and we're so excited Ocean Paws decided to open here! Just took our first trip today and our dog Blitzen walked away with a new stuffed duck, a jerky treat, a cookie and even our Cockatiel got a new toy. They also have a cute little area out back for doggy socials and grooming services which we will definitely be back for. Also the owners and staff are super friendly and live in the neighborhood. Please check them out and support local small business! read more

Ocean paws is a really great place to bring your pets. As soon as Yogi and I walked in we were greeted by warm smiles, pets and all of our questions were answered regarding foods & treats.

I really hope I could leave 0 star or even negative. Everyone should really reconsider if you are planning to take your pet to this place. The owner was awful and no customer service at all!!! I took my dog to have his nail trimmed on Saturday and only found out 6 of the nails didn't get trimmed when I got home. This is the third time I got my dog there and the first two times were okay even they missed one or two. The groomers were nice so I let it go. But this time, I specifically asked the groomer if she covered all the nails and she said she did. One of dewclaws was really long and that's the one I wanted her to trim the most, I even told her about that but she still didn't do it. I wanted to call them back right away but they already closed and not opened on Sunday. So I waited today and asked if they could fix it. The person who answered the phone was the owner and he declined!!! Basically what he said was it's my fault that I didn't check at that moment when it's done, it's their store policy that I have to check and they won't provide any service after that. I BROUGHT MY DOG THERE TO GET SERVICE AND I TRUSTED YOU GUYS AND I VERIFIED WITH THE GROOMER!!! I gave trust to them and they are blaming on me not checking!!! I asked him since you guys are expert, can't you tell if the nails got trimmed or not by looking at the nails? I'm willing to bring my dog back so they can take a look. He said they could review it but I need to pay another $20 if I want they to fix it. THIS IS TOTALLY A JOKE AND UNACCEPTABLE!!! THEY DIDN'T DO THE JOB RIGHT BUT THEY ARE TRYING TO CHARGE ME AGAIN FOR THAT!!! He kept saying it's their store policy which I should have read it and dog nails grow. This is nonsense, I brought my dog for a nail trimming, not so kind of adventures to give up my life!!! Besides, how fast can dogs' nails grow in a few days or in a week. If that's the store policy, they should inform the customers to read. But no, not even when I went there the first time. Then he said oh it's behind the register, you should have seen it. EXCUSE ME, who cares about what's behind your register!!! The customer service that the owner provides is horrible. No apologies but blaming on customer and trying to get money again. I will never go back to that place ever again!!! Folks, think twice if you are planning to go! I recommend you find another place because that's what I'm gonna do!!! read more

Always a fun time coming into ocean paws! I absolutely love visiting with my pup because the store owner and everyone who works there always makes you feel welcomed. The conversations with the staff there are always fun, it makes us feel as if we've known the staff for some time - as if we're just visiting some friends. They also have doggie socials every evening in the backyard, I've yet to visit during this time! Prices on all items are pretty decent, I never feel like I'm breaking the bank here either - I'd rather be spending my money at Ocean Paws, a local shop than supporting pet smart or any other chain pet store. #supportsmallbusinesses Would definitely recommend this spot to anyone! Thanks for being awesome Ocean Paws :) read more

So glad to have found this place! I brought my two Chi-Chi mixes in for a wash, nail trim and anal glands and feel so lucky they were able to see both of them at the same time! My older girl Penny HATES having her nails trimmed and I have been a terrible mom and have been neglecting them. Alfie, my new boy has probably never had a professional grooming either! Everyone there was so kind and are clearly animal lovers (the owner has a little Chi too!!). The groomer was VERY careful with Penny's long quicks and Alfie's long black nails, and they were so soft and smelled so GOOD when I picked them up!! What I loved about this place: -Online grooming appointment scheduling- so quick and easy!! -excellent selection of food! They have everything for my two cats and two dogs (who eat better than I do), which is hard to find! -aDORable clothes!! See my pic of the jackets I'm still drooling over!! -warm, friendly staff!! I always prefer to shop small and am SO glad I found a place so close by that has everything I jesd read more

I popped in after going to Whole Foods and was pleasantly surprised that they have my senior dog's CBD oil brand, Pet Releaf!

My partner and I had paid $700 for dog training, first couple training sessions were great but not the rest. The person that was assigned to training our pet had called and advised us that he was not feeling good one weekend and was not able to make the training. Totally understand, the following weekend comes around, we messaged and asked if we were good for coming into to training that weekend he then stated he had to get emergency surgery that weekend, AGAIN my partner and I totally understand. Two weekends go buy and nobody from the place had reached out to us letting us know when it was okay to come from training. No call or no messages from the trainer. $700 just gone. AND Now YOU WANT TO SAY THAT YOU DONT charge that much read more
