Lovebird from Kalihi pets
Lesley D.

Excellent staff, so friendly, very knowledgeable. They are helpful, we got our lovebird from here. They will do nail and wing clipping services if your pet bird is from them. Excellent local business to support!

Kalihi Pet Center. Our One Stop shop for our pets. Owner Randy Ogata and his staff are awesome. Excellent customer service, knowledgeable, and very helpful. They have an amazing selection of food and products for our pets. From our puppy to our fish all of our pets needs and wants are always available. Nice size shop very easy to navigate the aisles and shop. Centrally located in the Dillingham Plaza.

Stopped by Kalihi Pet center today looking for a plastic cone collar for my friends dog. My friend said his dog been scratching and his fur is all coming out . He thought this collar might work . Well I asked an associate if they had such I thing I think he didn't know what I was talking about . He said they only carry flea collar or walking harness collar for dogs . Kalihi Pets is located in the City Square shopping center next door to Chuck and Cheese. Support local

Yesterday.. when I walked into the store, I was met with the nicest sale person Alan. I went specifically to this pet store for a red male canary. Alan took me to view the birds and to pick out a cage, find the bird food and helped with the sales process.. and then to carry everything out to the car. This morning he is singing.. I am so grateful for the fast expertise assistance. Thank You Very Much!

Storefront at City Square

Shopping for pet supplies in Kalihi, Honolulu, Hawaii... My friend is taking care of her daughter's cat... but still wants to buy treats for the cat... even though it's not her cat! LOL! She's very nice... Since we were at City Square on Dillingham Boulevard, I thought we should just go inside the shop. We already had free parking... may as well look, right? I had never been inside Kalihi Pet Center... even though there are four dogs at my mom's house. I just buy treats and toys at Ross. If I needed something specific, I would come here because: 1. the staff are helpful and friendly 2. the environment is organized and clean 3. there are many merchandise choices 4. City Square is conveniently located Also - if you're looking for a pet, I did see puppies, birds of various types, and all kinds of fish! I didn't see any bunnies, but maybe that's a good thing! P.S. my friend did find treats for her daughter's cat!

They sell a plethora of live animals here. They sell everything from fishes, turtles, birds, reptiles to puppies. They also have everything that you would need for your pet such as clothes, toys, food and medicine. I came here to get a catfish $7.99. I needed a bottom feeder to eat all the leftover food on the bottom of my tank. I found the fish I wanted. I motioned for one of the workers to help me. He scooped up one of the catfishes, pumped air into the bag and walked me to the checkout. Before I picked out my fish, I took a look at the puppies. They have the cutest puppies. I saw one that I seriously wanted. It was gray with blue eyes. It was a mix of Yorkshire Terrier and Pomeranian for $3499. The price was a little high for a dog that's not pure breed. I still would have bought it except for the fact that I need someone to walk him every morning and night to pick up the poop. That's my one deterrent. I asked the hubby if he would do it and he gave me the side eye, lol.

Pop's goldfishes had gone to goldfish heaven, and the worst part about all of this is those goldfishes he had purchased from another pet store in Kahala, he just had purchased them like two or three months ago. Aiyah! Pops was missing his goldfish, so he was badgering me to pick up more goldfish. I didn't want to go back to the pet store in Kahala, so the other night when I was having dinner with my homie in Mililani, I decided to stop by the Pet Hale only to find out that the business was no longer there (insert Sad Panda face). My 2nd stop was to check out the Mililani Walmart, only to find out Walmart no longer sells fish too. My homie - Gary T. then mentions to me about a pet store in Kalihi, and that is how I ended up at the Kalihi Pet Center. Where is the Kalihi Pet Center located? You can find this cool pet store at the City Square Shopping center, the same complex where Sugoi's, Kamehameha Bakery, & Pancakes and Waffle BLD is located. A cool pet store that sells a ton of pet supplies, fish, doggies, chinchillas, birds, & alot of other stuff I probably missed. Lol! Service here was friendly & very helpful! I found the goldfish that my pops wanted, and decided to buy eight of them, that way the goldfishes won't be lonely in the pond. Lol!

Guinea pigs and birds
Tessa R.

Came in here to buy crickets for my Jackson chameleon. $4 for 20. There is so much pet supplies in this place. I can't imagine you would need to go anywhere else. It is jammed pack with all your pet will ever need. Friendly service too. If I'm in the area again I would come back. I wasn't a huge fan of all the birds and Guinea pigs in their tiny cages.

Already feeling comfortable and showing her belly

See all

There's a reason why they won Hawaii's Best Local Pet Store couple years IN A ROW, it's because they are, HANDS DOWN.

I think they've got a really decent selection, definitely more fancy and expensive guppy strains to…read moreoffer at the moment, and some common fancies in a blond color. I think it's a bit less species variety overall than maybe the fish shops in Kalihi and the aquarium concepts shop nearby in mapunapuna, but a bit more selection of fancy guppies at the same time. The big-brain flower horns, discus, some display tanks, and axolotls were a cool surprise. Some of the resident loaches were huge, especially the albino dojo near the front! Too bad I forgot to take a photo. That thing must be like a foot long and a decade old, and maybe as thick around as a portuguese sausage. Huge hump of fatty muscle along its back. I'd been wanting to check this place out! It definitely is a little cramped and cluttered looking inside and the smell is a little strong, but not too bad. There was a long-gone hollow goldfish staring at the sky, that gave me small-kine jump scare when I squat down to look at a tank. It was just randomly drying out at the bottom of a bucket in the aisles, which was, uh... anyways. I wanted to know more about an unlabeled and unpriced freshwater plant that somewhat resembles seaweed, so the buff dude grabbed a handful to show to the cashier lady at the front. The buff dude was attentive and personable throughout my visit, and did his best to answer questions about the fish, which I appreciated. The cashier lady though, she mumbled a name but I don't think she knew the plant that well and didn't write it down either. What she was somehow very sure about was the price, lol... just plainly stated the price for a clump is $7.99, though the tank of plants above it were organized in much neater clumps, and advertised at $5.99 each. Not only that, she had to step down from the cashier box to get her hands wet, and manually separate the handful of plant that the man grabbed. Started as a healthy, natural looking clump that would fit nicely in an 8 oz container, and she tore it in half. So, now it's small enough that it fits in the palm of your hand! Did she think to wash her hands first after handling cash and coins all morning? Nahh... But she was very insistent to him that he was definitely (and arbitrarily) holding two clumps, not one! She knew I wanted to buy it, and I'd already got a few pricier fish in my cart, so I guess she felt I could afford to cough up an extra few bucks. Yeah can, just don't think that I don't notice the grubbing... Business goes on as usual. I needed to get on with my errands that morning and eh, the shop has some local mom-and-pop vibes so I gave it a pass.

Just wanted to know if you guys have rabbits for sale and how much need one for my son asapread more

With our dog passing away 2 years ago there was a clone of him sitting there (but already sold). My heart sank as I never thought I'd see another. To our surprise his brother sat by the glass and crossed his front paws just like our previous dog. Again my heart sank. With a bunch of thinking and going back and forth for a couple hours we made the purchase. The staff were extremely nice, able to answer all my questions with ease. Unfortunately, he wasn't and to come home with us until his vet appointment. We were able to come in as often as we wanted and hold him until the day he could come home. I didn't know I was being helped by the owner/wife during this time. She was extremely sweet, and that made me feel better about purchasing from a store. The dogs areas were constantly cleaned by staff, they wouldn't handle them until they were able to clean and sanitize to ensure safety. That also made me alot more comfortable. All in all this experience was great. I also feel line the merchandise is to par for the prices. Thank you koolau pets for adding a new baby to our ohana.
