    This spot isn't that big inside but well organized. I came in and was greeted and helped by the worker behind the counter who was very helpful and insightful of items I was looking for. Come to find out he was the owner. This place carries products that when you got to those petsmarts, natural pawz, your looking for those items you just cant find there, but it seems that Great Outdogs has them. They've got great selection of squeaky toys, LED collars, and balls at night. Floating vests for dogs, and functional leashes that don't tangle or twist. I enjoy coming here with my canine to shop around and Matt also has a beautiful boxer he keeps behind the curtained wall.

    Stellar place. This place is everything online shopping is missing. Feels so good to shop local & have real people help you. Matt is very friendly & went out of his way to really help me find something very specific for my dogs. It would have been really easy for Matt to have sent me on my way with a "no, out of stock". Instead he was truly helpful. I keep coming here & will continue to do so. Fair pricing. Helpful. Knowledgeable. Caring. Understanding. Patient. My pup monsters say thank you & love it when I come visit your store. Thank you!

    Great store for our furry friends. I found quality food at a great price. I was welcomed by a dog in the front door and he was the sweetest. You'll find a great selection of food, treats and toys here!

    A one stop shop for all dogs supplies No more dog goodies from Amazon. Endless choices for your dogs. Full disclosure. It's a tight squeeze trying to maneuver around the inside. Don't let that stop you though. It's worth your time.

    Love this place! For dog owners downtown, who might actually have to drive to one of those big stores with "Pet" in the name; or happen to find themselves downtown or in the 04, in need of a dog collar made from a recycled bicycle tube or some sweet potato treats from Healthy Hound, you need look no further. How smart is this? I stumbled upon them during a town lake walk with my two furkids in tow. It's a mobile dog store and you can find it right smack next to the off-leash dog park at Auditorium Shores. They cater to people who have dogs with an outdoor lifestyle "outdogs" - and have smartly brought the convenience of buying those right to where those dog owners are playing with their dogs. They have life sized dog stuffed animals placed around the outside wearing various harnesses, life jackets and collars to greet you. As you walk closer, there are racks of toys and accessories for your dogs. They frame the way into the back of the truck which is a moving truck ramp cleverly decorated with big yellow paw prints and the words "come inside" peppered along the way. There is a "wipe your paws" mat at the base. Once inside, there are more and more dog accessories, gadgets, dog treats, and items to keep your dog healthy, oh my! The guy working there was cool, friendly, and attentive to my dogs. This particular day, I had the minimal $5 and a drivers license on me, as I was walking and not expecting to shop. You can definitely bet I will be back with wallet (or at least a credit card in hand) to do a little spoiling of my kiddos. Leroy & Ivy give it their paw of approval too!

    This place is simply amazing I want to thank you for your amazing help in every way. You see I have the small Chihuahua she such a joy to me her name is GORGEOUS about a year ago she was struggling with her weight I couldn't even get her to eat .I tried dog food after dog food one to two days later she would not eat you recommended a dog food for her and I remember when you said she will not turn it down I was a little apprehensive of course because indeed she would always turn it down I open the bag all excited she's walking around the house here we go again I rip the bag open , and she looks unexcited at me with that little baby face now withglee and her eyes with my surprise when she took one bite I was so happy that cried ... But it wasn't over yet day one came and pass a week came and passed now a year later GORGEUS is healthy happy and is soon as I bring out her bag of dog food her tail starts wagging she's jumping in a big circle she's healthy with a normal Weight gain I think you so much you've changed my dogs life and for that I am grateful...

    We love Austin's first mobile pet store! I don't know how Matt does it but he carries pretty much every pet accessory or toy you could possibly be looking for inside a freakin mobile truck! Wish I had of taken more inside picks but the walls and ceiling are filled with leashes and collars and toys and treats and bowls and backpacks.... All very focused on the outdoors - get it OutDogs:) Today he was scheduled to be at Auditorium Shores at 8 AM and we were there waiting for him and Dot was proud to be his first customer of the day or in the way while he set up:) see pics... I was specifically looking for a hiking backpack for my 80Lb 7 year old puppy who is a bottomless pit of energy. I got the idea that weighting her down on hikes or daily walks would give her a job and tire her out faster. Matt had exactly what I was looking for a doggie back pack/halter with removable packs for rest stops or dips in the creek/lake. He also sells Swamp Cooler Cooling Vests for these long hot summer days. If you do not want to chase him around town like I have you can also shop online.

    Tiniest life vest ever.

The staff are always kind, knowledgeable, and willing to go above and beyond to help. The owner is such a wonderful person who genuinely cares about pets and people alike. What makes this store stand out even more is how much they give back. They're constantly supporting local animal shelters and staying involved in the community. You can feel good shopping here because your money is going right back into helping animals and the people who love them. I love supporting small businesses, and this one sets the bar high. If you want quality products, amazing service, and to support a store that truly makes a difference, this is the place to go!

    I have been coming to Paws on Chicon for a couple months now and it's my favorite place to get food…read moreand wash my dogs. I personally use the dog wash station when it's cold outside. They have a very clear process of how to use the dog wash. I believe it's 15 or 18 per dog and you have a limited amount of time. I usually take both my dogs for a wash and never use up the time. Things included in the dog wash: - private room - variety of shampoos - conditioner - towels - doggie perfume (that's what I call it haha) - ear wipes - blow dryer All products are dog friendly and very gentle on my little dogs. I also like to buy all their food from here. They have a special where you can buy the same brand for a number amount of times and then you get the 12th bag for free. I'm on my 5th bag so far so I'm looking forward to my free bag! Actually today, for purchasing the bag, I got free treats. I really like the variety of good kibble and wet food they offer. The service is beyond great. Everyone is extremely friendly. They offer you free beverages when washing your dog, offer to take your dog food to your car, and are so sweet to pets. I love it here. My dogs love it here. I will be continuing to be a customer here :)

    I was looking for a gift for a cat and dog lover when my neighbor recommended Tomlinson's,…read morespecifically this location near Target. I had never been to a Tomlinson's before--honestly, I had never even heard of it since they don't have any in California. I learned during my visit that there are 18 locations in Austin, and WOW, what an amazing store! The customer service here is on another level--it honestly felt like the hospitality of a high-end hotel. The staff is incredibly kind and welcoming, even opening the door for customers. They truly go out of their way to help, and I'm not exaggerating! I believe the employee who assisted me was Vanessa, and she was fantastic. She helped me pick out the perfect gifts, especially for the cat-related items since I don't have a cat myself. I was shopping for an 8-year-old who has two cats, so I wanted the best toys. I ended up choosing a faux rabbit foot toy with feathers for self-play, a classic "Lambie" plush, and a handmade hemp catnip mouse with a long tail for interactive play. I even learned a lot about catnip, which I had heard of before but didn't actually know much about--this staff is truly knowledgeable! I also brought my dog with me, and not only did he have a blast playing with other dogs, but the store also gave him free treats to try. They even sent me home with some freeze-dried sample treats, which was such a nice touch. The selection of dog toys here is incredible--I'd honestly be hesitant to bring a child in because the toys are so high-quality, they could pass for children's toys! I ended up getting an amazing eco-friendly crocodile toy made entirely of recycled materials. Its legs are ropes for tug-of-war, and its hollow body holds a replaceable water bottle that creates that satisfying crunching sound dogs love. Once the bottle is chewed up, you can swap it out for a new one--such a smart design! This store has everything--leashes, collars, treats, and a huge variety of toys for both tiny and giant dogs. They also had the cutest little plush toys shaped like root vegetables with adorable faces--absolutely melted my heart! Prices were super affordable, too. Honestly, after seeing what they offer, I don't see the point in ordering pet supplies on Amazon anymore. Stores like this deserve our support, and it's a place my dog genuinely enjoys visiting. I was also looking for travel-sized dog food for a trip and found some perfect 3.5 oz pouches for only $2, which I could take in my carry-on. While browsing, I noticed a lot of repeat customers stopping in just to grab their favorite treats from a self-serve treat station, kind of like those bulk snack bins at Sprouts or Whole Foods. Next time, I'll have to check it out for my dog! Another thing I need to ask about is their nail trimming service, which my neighbor mentioned. While I was there, I even saw the staff helping deliver an adopted puppy to its new home--such a sweet moment! And as I was checking out, I learned they offer same-day delivery, which is so convenient. I haven't placed an order yet, but it's good to know that option exists. Overall, this was such a fun and memorable shopping experience. I'll definitely be coming back and getting all my pet supplies here from now on!

    I can't scream my love for Prime Pet loud enough. No seriously, I can't, my neighbors are over me…read morescreaming, "I LOVE PRIME PET!" in my backyard. It's like a thing now. Anyhoo, I love them. 1) They're just so darn caring. We met them yeeeeears ago when we lived across the street from their OG location. They were always SO warm and welcoming when we walked in and so helpful finding our baby Jake the right kind of food. 2) Speaking of, they carry the BEST food, treats, toys and bath products for our now two dogs! Psst... they have cat stuff too. 3) Did I mention they are so darned caring? We just went to visit their new spot located right next door to the best vet ever - Paz. Our new rescue dog has been eating grass and apparently not getting enough nutrients so after visiting Paz, we went next door to get some recos from our trusted friends at Prime Pet. Of course, they knew what to send us home with. We picked up some new grub, the boys picked out a couple of treats that smelled good to them (ahem, it all smelled good to them) and we also picked up an adorable squeaky toy that resembles mama's favorite treat - a bottle of Tito's Vodka. ;) I highly recommend making Prime Pet your go-to for pet supplies. If they don't have something you want, let them know! They're also taking all the precautions during COVID so you can be sure you feel safe when shopping. If you don't want to shop in-person, they offer curbside and same-day area delivery. Bonus: if you're lucky, your pup might even get featured on their Instagram @primepetaustin!
