On our way to a dinner reservation at The Pig & The Lady, Jamie W and I made a point of stopping by…read morethis boutique. Even though we don't own a pet, we have friends who do and became curious about the shop through a local YouTube vlogger. What makes it unique is that it's a gay-owned business. As I accurately surmised, they offer locally sourced pet food and treats and specialty accessories in a friendly and inclusive space. Some of the treats looked appetizing enough for human consumption like ahi tuna jerky and dried duck necks (Photo 7). Of course there were Spam musubi squeaker toys and a variety of leashes in a multitude of colors (Photo 2). They even offered merch for non-pet owners like us. While I sadly bypassed the "Heated Rivalry" stickers (Photo 10), I couldn't help but get the rainbow toothbrushes (Photo 9). Wouldn't you? No surprise the staff was a kick.

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.

The return itself was alittle complicated, however, the guy who helped me, whos name is "BROOK" was AWESOME! Long story short, He took the extra time needed to make sure the return was done correctly,he was also patient and didn't make me feel like I was a bother. (I mention this because sometimes the workers arent the most friendly). Anyway, thank you Brook for being amazing and helping me with my return.

Manager SHERRY came to the door to point it out and walk away after I saw my groomer at the door of grooming watching Sherry walk away. My call rings twice just for her to come out to unlock the door. No one answered. What was the point because I mentioned it just for her to say "you literally just called" but I was relaying what I was implying on what I was told to do for my call to be missed. I get it, manager busy gossiping about the green turtle/frog right at the door front entrance with the other clerk 2 min after.... I recorded my experience this time. As a paying customer of 11 years my anxiety here is high because the last 2 were HORRIBLE. Sadly I won't be back.

I ended up buying my dog a Laulau toy where the leaf velcros and there's a "meat" stuffie inside. Honestly, I love it even more than my dog does. If you're looking for something unique and fun this is a great spot to pick up a gift for your dog or for a friend. The prices are a bit higher than some other places, but for the quality and uniqueness it's worth it. They also had some specials going on while I was there- so check with them if you're interested in a deal.

Wanted to upgrade my axolotl's tank and get a better quality filter. Stopped by pet depot after…read morework and was helped by Carina. She was very friendly and helpful, told her what the tank was for and what I was kinda looking for and she showed me some options. She then took me to her computer and showed me the dimensions of the tank I was looking at( just to make sure it'll fit on my stand at home) I called them back when I measured it and she told me she would have her boss call me and send me an invoice for the tank. Fast forward bought the tank and told them I'd pick it up the next day after work. Come that day to pick up my tank Ryan (the manager) helped me. I told him I wanted a good quality filter so I wouldn't have to really maintain it all the time. He was veryyyyy helpful and knowledge!! He gave me a few options of the filters, the best ones and the ones that he wouldn't recommend for my fish.He also gave me pointers on how to keep my axolotl cold. (They can only be in cold water) bought the filter (oase filtosmart thermo 200) he recommended and Ryan actually showed us how it works and how to set it up. $500 later, we had the whole set up. Even though it was pricy, I rather pay for the good quality things cuz who wants to keep wasting money on cheap/ meh quality. We tried setting it up when we got home and for some reason the water wasn't going through the tubes. I called pet depot and George offered to FaceTime us to see where we were wrong and walk us through the steps. 15 minutes later the filter worked and my axolotl couldn't be any happier! I truly want to thank all these people for their TRUE Customer service. I honestly haven't been this blown away with this kind of customer service in a really looong time. They went FAR and BEYOND just for us. They gave us their honest opinion and went that extra mile face timing us!! I still can't believe it! Thank youuu soooooo much for alllll the help!! Very much appreciated it! So anyone that needs any pet supplies pls go to this store! 10000%% worth it!
