If your dog is suffering from endless licking and scratching, you need to visit Marin Raw. We had been dealing with our dog's severe skin issues for years and felt like we had tried absolutely everything. Our vet had us on Apoquel first, and then we switched to Cytopoint shots. Nothing provided lasting relief, and we frequently had to put a cone on our dog just to stop him from tearing up his skin. Then we met Elizabeth, and everything changed. Elizabeth is incredibly honest, knowledgeable, and extremely result-oriented. Some people might find her direct approach a bit strict, but it's because she has years of experience and is absolutely sure of what works. She told us right away that we needed to follow her advice exactly, or it wouldn't work. She explained that the entire foundation of the treatment is structured around diet, and nothing else would help if we didn't fix the food first. What I appreciate most about Elizabeth is her integrity. She insisted on taking things one step at a time so we could actually see what was working. She wouldn't even allow us to add any topicals or supplements at first. We changed his food as instructed and saw immediate relief. Because she made us wait, we didn't even need to move on to the second step, which saved us a load of money. She could have easily sold us $100 worth of specialty shampoos and creams that day, but she didn't. She isn't interested in just selling products or slapping a bandaid on the problem; she goes straight to the root of the issue. We are so grateful to have a happy, comfortable dog again. We cannot recommend Elizabeth and Marin Raw enough! read more

Marin Raw has a stall at the Clement Farmers Market on Sundays. Some of the best treats you can give to your pup! Mostly single ingredient unless you buy the mix bags. My pug loves their Lamb Lungs. One of his favorite treats and I buy him a lot of different treats. We also sometimes get the rabbit liver and or the chicken hearts. We have been feeding him these treats since he was a baby and now he's 3. Very friendly and helpful people that run this stall. read more

My experience with this company and its owner has been great. The owner hasn't been what the previous reviews have said- she's been communicative, helpful and eager to be of service. Not to mention, I don't feel like someone's people skills, or lack thereof for that matter, dictates the quality and affordability of the product they offer. With that said- the comments stating you shouldn't support a local small business solely based on the owner's people skills are a little harsh, but to each their own. I'm very happy I found a local company which offers affordable prices. Ordering and pick up were very easy! All of my dogs are happy and so am I. Will be a return customer. read more

Elizabeth, the owner....I can't say enough good things about about her. I found Marin Raw in September of 2023. Thank God! My 13 year old Doberman had been diagnosed with Cushings Disease. I have owned 12 dobermans in my life and had been feeding dry dog food up until this diagnosis. I did the research and found out that the dry dog food, for so many many reasons should NEVER be fed to dogs. I immediately started grinding my own food. Ordering bone and hearts, etc and having it delivered from across the country, until I found Marin Raw. Elizabeth is like family now. She gives me so much information and even the code to her store, when I needed food late at night and she was closed. She is dedicated to educating dog owners and she is someone you can trust. As far as the Raw Diet and all the controversy over it. My veterinarian at Central Animal Hospital in Petaluma told me in no uncertain terms that raw is dangerous!! I have to say that in 8 days my dog showed no signs of Cushings. I had blood work done a month after putting her on an all raw diet and her blood work was completely normal. I found a holistic vet in Santa Rose, Wise and Wonderful Veterinary. Our second doberman is now on raw too. My daughter is a vet tech who lives with me. She is against the raw too. My sense is to feed closest to real food. I buy my raw meat from Elizabeth and grind vegetables to add and my dogs have never been healthier. I can not recommend Marin Raw enough. In fact I am like a representative for the raw diet now...I tell everyone, as I do think it has saved my 13 year old doberman's life. She could hardly breath, she had thick mucus coming from her eyes and had to have steroid cream 2x a day, she could not hold her urine and was drinking bowls of water and having accidents because she could not hold it. She was loosing all the strength in her legs, so could not even squat to urinate. Her coat was dull and dry. 6 months later. Wow!! A beautiful Speciman! She and her sister love their food. I even buy Elizabeth's raw Sardines and grind them in my food processor. I do not know what I would do without Marin Raw, as I did find out that the company I was buying from Blue Ridge Beef, Lily's Advantage....Santa Cruz. Shipped to me, however, they have a rendering facility. (Not regulated - basically a place where they dispose of animals that are diseased and die). Do not listen to your veterinarians. They do not know enough about a raw diet and will tell you it is bad. I know better now...wish I had know for my past dogs... read more

Liz changed my dog's life. My dog has been suffering from food intolerance, allergies and bowel disease her whole life. It got so bad she lost 20 lbs, her fur was falling out, completely itchy all over. Vets were prescribing all kinds of meds that were making her sicker. I thought she was going to die from the malabsorptive bowel disease. She was 11 years old. It was a slow and steady change to raw food. She is an insanely picky eater. Now she is 13 years old and mostly fine! I know she is an old dog with arthritis but her digestion issues have gone away. read more

Stay away from this business, The owner is extremely rude. I ordered from her several times and 80% of my orders were either missing something or wrong meat. Every time the owner screw up my order she never apologies and never admit she made a mistake. Her way of solving the problem is by give you refund and she hope you never come back. When you go to her shop she barely engage with you and if you ask her questions she get annoyed This lady is very rude and i will never buy from her ever again and i'll spend my money somewhere else where my business is appreciated. Those review who say otherwise, they are either her friends or her family seeding good reviews to paint her as a good person. read more

My dog and I stopped in today to Marin raw, never been in before so we were going in to ask questions and hopefully walk out with some good food for Mr Oliver. Well that didn't happen. As we walked up to the store her dog was in I'm assuming her car "Marin raw" License plate, her dog starts barking so she closes her car up all While on the phone, we walk Inside and look around her other dog was inside a sweet dog and was playing a big with Oliver again she was still On the phone. I Finally sat down on her bench inside and her dog jumped up totally fine with me but she comes in takes him off me and puts him in her car, again all While on the phone. At this point we were there for 15 minutes never did she say hello or give me a minute or I will be right with you, she ignored us the entire time all While on the phone. We finally left and will not be back. This is a small town small business and sad that this is how you treated us. read more

Same thing as the other bad reviews say. This women is rude, judgmental, condescending. Either she is on the spectrum and doesn't know how to talk to people or she's genuinely like that and has no clue. Basically scolded me, talked down on me, and told me my cat was dehydrated and would get sick (over feeding cat wet n not dry food, I feed her both) What the actual heck, I was in here for 5 minutes and her demeanor is absolutely unpleasant. Maybe I would be open to listening if she wasn't as condescending. I'm all for learning. She's an animal nutritionist so I wouldn't discredit her but I would much rather support a different business. It almost seems she must not get a lot of business and waiting for someone to come in so she can drop this bomb on you but rudely read more

People seriously think my pup is a puppy and he's 12 years old. Take my advice and treat your fur baby to some Marin Raw chow. It will save you on vet bills bc the quality is superior. read more

We love this store! It makes feeding raw so much easier and we can trust that all the meats are high quality and humanely raised. Elizabeth has clearly taken the time and care to educate herself, and has helped many fur family members over come discomfort and illness. She also carries Chinese medicines and all kinds of great supplements. Thank you Marin Raw! read more

The owner, Elizabeth is super nice and honest. She doesn't try to over sell you. In fact I was about to purchase more items then she would advised me that I don't need that since the other items have all the nutrients my corgi with late stage kidney disease needs. Most will start buying dog foods here. So support your local dog food business! read more

The owner gaslights you into buying her food. My pup and I woke up excited to get some treats from her at the market. When we got there, I told her about our struggles with food allergies and sensitivities and she rolled her eyes. She proceeded to tell us that food allergies were not real. Then when I looked at her packaging, some of the foods said the opposite such as "good for food allergies, great for dogs with sensitive stomachs." Then she also started pulling out more of the food she made. I was genuinely curious about her food and getting help for my pup, because I want my pup to be healthy. So I was totally open to hearing her opinions. However she was condescending the entire time, and didn't want to listen to what I said because I bought kibble and went to the vet. Then she told us her dog (who was also at the market saying hi to other dogs) was unvaccinated because she only believed in her healthy food. I understand why people don't want to engage in corporate kibble, but please don't gaslight people. read more

Before opening, I thought this was going to be a butcher shop. I was pleasantly surprised when it turned out to be a pet food store. The owner is extremely knowledgeable and committed to providing the best for your pets. She also provides treats to her pet clientele. read more

I had a much similar experience to Stephanie p! The woman working in the store (I assume the owner) is extremely rude, judging, and condescending. I support the idea of this store and the healthy diet they provide dogs; but I have no felt so violated and judged by a stranger. DO NOT SUPPORT THIS BUSINESS this woman needs a huge lesson in being humble and learn to accepting of others; she is an extremist. Plus she's a vegan selling all meat products to dogs?!? Make it make sense. She claims to be a vegan for animal rights yet she is selling rabbit hearts and chicken lungs read more
