The Northside Pets Superstore is a great place to grab a whole lot of different items needed for your pets, with highly trained staff included vet nurses and breeders of different species. I always venture into pet stores to sneak a peak at the adorable puppies and cute kittens that they have in stock, wishing that I could take them all home. What I was not expecting when I walked into the Northisde Pet Superstore in Hillcrest, was a variety of snakes and lizzards to impress me. Which it did. There were some amazing creatures in that store. A cute little baby childrens python even tried to attack me, and smacked its face on the glass - highly entertaining. A pet store with a different sort of livestock than your average domestic pets is definitely something worth 4 stars, especially when I got the impression that the staff were more than happy to talk to you about any questions you had. read more

I'd always duck into Northside Pet Superstore when I was going past, after picking up some quite rare fish for an absolute steal - browsing through all the standard guppies, tetras, platys and goldfish - nothing really unusual there, but it is a pet store, not a specialised aquarium shop - I found a tank full of algae eaters - again nothing unusual (and word of warning, they're only algae eaters when they're young, and hungry - as they get bigger, and find they can eat the food your other fish are getting, they get lazy - and they'll also latch on to slow moving fish, and use them as food too - not nice fish sometimes) except for five fish that definitely weren't your everyday algae eater - tall fins, and a much more elongated shape. I asked a staff member what they were, she told me algae eaters - I took a chance on them, as they looked really interesting, and I knew I could find homes for them even if they weren't compatible with my fish, and took two of the 'algae eaters' home. Turned out they were a variety of Hemoloptera - lovely fish that don't grow too big, and sell for about ten times the price of an algae eater - and when I went back for the other three the next day they even gave me a discount on them... *bonus* :) That aside, I see a good stock of the regular fish. There's often a special on something, tetras, goldies or guppies, which probably reflects a discount they've gotten from the suppliers, but it never hurts to get a good bargain. Overall the store looks good - I don't pay a lot of attention to the rest of the livestock, unless the kids are with me, but they have a good range of animals and products. read more

A huge pet store with a good variety of stock for every kind of pet really. Even found an Australian made bed for one, yes one of my cats, t he others will be jealous, it is machine washable, bonus. So we already have a house full of pets and children, a very cute guinea pig caught our eye, yes, so cute and small and cuddly, irresistible. The staff members there helpful and cheerfully answered all my questions, some probably silly concerning the small critters. So now I have purchased a two storey home for two guinea pig and so we add to the many pets in our home. They are doing well , putting on weight with nice round bellies. read more
