I'm not a marine guy but looks like they have a lot of cool stuff. The entrance is unassuming and is just a door. But they do have a big store banner. Just walk right in.

I first visited about 1.5 weeks ago and purchased a fish that died within 24hrs. I took it back to the store and was offered a slight discount toward a replacement fish. The new fish has also now died (~1week later). I have a well-established tank (10+years) with three other adult fish who haven't had any issues, and we closely monitor our water conditions especially after that first fish. I can only conclude that this place is selling sick/poor quality fish. Not worth the risk when the store refuses to take accountability for the quality of their product.

The tanks are clean, the fish look healthy, and the plant variety is far better than what you usually find in most LA shops. You can tell they put real care into their aquatics section. The staff is super friendly and knowledgeable. They are easy to talk to and always willing to help without any pressure or upselling. Their hardscape materials are great quality as well. The supply selection is a little more limited, but everything they carry is solid and well chosen, so it still feels like a complete shop. They also have a very impressive collection of reptiles. Some truly beautiful species that are clearly well cared for. If you're into snakes, lizards, or other exotics, it is definitely worth a visit. And the bird section is surprisingly nice too, with a good variety of healthy, active birds. Overall, this store is incredibly well rounded and one of the better pet shops in the area. Very impressed. Highly recommend stopping by whether you're into aquariums, reptiles, or birds.

THIS PLACE HAS DEVOLVED TREMENDOUSLY!!! I have been a customer of this store for awhile! Over the…read moreyears, we have always had a good experience but lately the customer service has taken a nose dive into the dumpster!! Today, I went into get a couple of items. The cashier, who had the attitude of too good to be there and drywall combined, overcharged be on several items and then when I politely challenged it, he could not cope and another person came over and took over and corrected it. It was an overcharge of almost $9!! Not one single apology for the issues from either employee. Just rotten attitudes and I told them on the spot " and this kind of attitude is why I will never shop here again" to which one of them responded, sarcastically, as I walked out & cowardly to my back "have a blessed day" which is also disgusting christian behavior!!! I responded with choice words as I am DONE with this place!! There are too many options to endure this rude behavior & to be overcharged!!! We will spend our dollars elsewhere!!

I was out walking my dog when we stumbled upon what I can only describe as the greatest hidden gem…read morefor dog lovers! This place is basically the ultimate playground for dogs -- packed with premium dog treats, vitamins, stylish clothes, dental chews for hygiene, and so many healthy goodies I didn't even know existed. What really blew me away was the amount of FREE samples they let my dog try. It made it so easy to figure out what he loved before buying anything. The only "problem"? My dog loved EVERYTHING . But the clear winner was the duck neck -- he grabbed it and wouldn't let go! I've never seen him so determined. I also loved how thoughtful this place is. They even provide fresh water for the dogs, plus comfortable seating for the humans to relax while our pups enjoy their shopping adventure. It truly feels welcoming and down to earth, not pushy at all. The employees are incredibly knowledgeable and genuinely passionate. They took the time to explain what each treat does, whether it supports dental hygiene, antioxidants (like blueberry treats!), nutrition, or overall wellness. I walked out feeling confident that everything I bought was actually beneficial for my dog. You can truly tell the owner deeply cares about the quality of every product she sells. The way she talks about the importance of what we give to our pets shows how much she genuinely loves animals. Her passion really stands out, and it makes you feel good knowing the treats and products are thoughtfully chosen with our pets' health and happiness in mind. A huge shoutout to Kelly, who was full of positive energy and made the whole experience so fun. She was incredibly patient and helpful while we decided between treats, and my dog loved her so much he literally jumped into her arms . Long story short -- this place is a MUST VISIT. If your dog could design their dream store, this would be it. It's basically the McDonald's PlayPlace for dogs, but healthier, happier, and filled with love. Highly recommend bringing your pup here so they can experience it for themselves!

The foundation also encourages more humane treatment for dogs worldwide and also assists dogs domestically. As part of this initiative, she opened the Vanderpump Dog Rescue & Retail center in Los Angeles. 100% of proceeds from sales & adoptions go to the foundation. They also offer grooming services. A few years ago, a friend of mine adopted a dog from here - a beautiful tripod chihuahua mix. She was happy with the adoption process and loves her little princess. I was having dinner next door and stopped in to check the store out. As expected, the place is meticulously perfect and the décor is bougie with lots of cute plush dog toys & merch. Off to the side is a section where the fur babies that are up for adoption reside in posh play pens with white picket fences. There is also a nice area on the rooftop where potential adopters can spend quality time with their future fur baby. The staff here are very friendly, and I got to meet one of the pups named Meatball as he was on his way out for a walk. Thank you LVP for your dedication to helping our furry friends. *Metered street parking
