I went here while back pick up new leash for shio because old one cause rope burns for my hands and new one shio likes and gets super excited. He also likes his new collars because makes him stylish, but he told me he wanted that one to the work tie one I couldn't find it. I noted they had goat milk I had dreams to turn into shio ice cream. However, shio says if I behave I should rethink my ways. Store clerk was very helpful to my dad and I, on times I went with and without shio. Shio prefers to get snacks, outfits but one he wanted to get was goggles, not sure if they had online order means. If they had kiosk means at store would help them I think if sold out. My big ask: r motion fish toys for dogs, and intelligent toys have speaking means? bird toy for dogs? Strawberry squeaker? Petfun you can find toys, leashes, collars and treats, dog foods, but also shampoos and small pets and I did see wide variety means as well. I was thinking I could get fish and tank. Its very helpful and quiet. Also, I went to Walmart and other places previous for leashes all them had nylon rough materials which had material and leashes were too short and mostly chain. Leashes are longer and aren't the crazy device that cause your dog distress. read more

I haven't purchased anything here yet but I did go to scope it out. I'm getting back into aquariums and this seemed like a local pet store that had a good selection of fish. I will say they do and when I was there they had two staff members in the back at the tanks so there was no wait for the family that did purchase fish from them. The fish look healthy and a guy I work with has been getting fish from here and they all have survived and haven't introduced any sickness to his tanks. The prices are on the upper end of reasonable for the fish. Definitely will still drive all the way out there price range. They are limited on equipment but to be fair that's all mom and pop pet stores it's hard to clear profit on some items with distributors of these products. As far as the non fish stuff, they seem to have a lot of variety. I plan on going back for plants and fish and I'll update on how that goes. The only thing I think they could have done better is had the staff on the floor more engaged with people looking around. As lame as it sounds it makes them feel more a part of the community when they engage especially when compared to a box store. But still overall I think it's worth going to for fish and my coworker certainly agrees as it's where he shops for fish. read more

Always loved running through this small private owned pet shop as a kid. Wandering back in 10 years later and it's changed a bit, but some of my favorite elements are still here! We used to love standing around the koi pond and watching them swim around. Their assortment of both fresh water and salt water creatures is so fun to see! Shop small, shop local- if you're in this area it's worth stopping in here rather than the big box store. Thanks Pet Fun for always being a fun stop for everyone! read more

Me and bf went in today around 6:15pm and Patrick helped us out so much very honest and great customer service. He made sure we understood everything and answered all our questions. He even recommended us products that would be very beneficial for our tank while adding in our new fishes we bought. Every time we its always great service! read more

The people over at PetFun were super helpful with assisting me and my husband, answering all of our questions, which lead to this beautiful 5gallon Aquascape. Still a very young tank that we will continue to grow with their help. Best fish store in Salinas, with a huge stock, it's literally a little aquarium in there. read more

I used to buy dog food from here until very recently when one of the employees was super rude to me and my wife. I don't remember the employees name, but I do know that she had dark hair and was probably in her 40s. Not gonna go here again. read more

I can't believe that I forgot to leave a review for pet fun! They have an amazing staff that truly cares about your animals they have a wide variety of everything you need for any animal you need and if they don't know the answer they will go out of their way to find out what you're looking for. I have shopped there for a while for breed-specific dog food they have it in stock 100% of the time when other big box retailers do not. They have specialty items holistic items everything you can think of for your pet. I have a special-needs dog who is allergic to so much but they have what I need to get him feeling better. Even one time he came down with a cough and every place even the veterinarians were out of this medicine and why do you know pet fun had it! My frenchie loves this place,she gets everything from there her toys her food even her freeze dried lamb meal mixers that she now will not eat without them LOL One time we thought they were out and I was going to get another flavor however the staff helped me locate it and even offered to order it for me because they knew that I have been in for it frequently so they basically asked me how often am I purchasing and made a special order for me to have it in there every two weeks can't believe they would do that and the staff is unbelievably friendly and helpful about it . Stop by if you are a local make this your pet store you won't regret it! Definitely check out their wide varieties of food toys and treats beds fish everything just everything LOL they are a great addition to a family friendly locally owned and operated pet store in Salinas. read more

Pet Fun - Natural toys for heavy chewers - Local Fish Stores Near Me - Salinas, California

I have been here several times. I love that they carry FROMMS dog food and can special order one for me that they do not carry in store. I go here for all my fish needs, ie. filter replacements and water treatment solutions. They have quite a few treats here and I have purchased several small treats. I feel like the inventory is lacking on bigger chews. They do have a really good toy selection. Ive bought several toys here. I do wish I could send some treat recommendations. Unfortunately my usual go to spot is stocking more towards horses these days. This place is always well staffed and the staff always seems to be happy. Thank you guys for ordering my food for me. I literally don't know what I'd do without you. read more

I came here for some fish and Josh was an incredible help! He is super knowledgeable about everything fish related; he offers amazing advice and assistance all while being super supportive and patient. Josh answered all our questions and even showed us how to clean a fish tank efficiently and quickly. I will be going back for all of my fish needs. If you need fish, go see Josh! read more

WORST BUSINESS PRACTICES ever. So I returned the dog diapers, and I have to answer all these questions of why I'm returning them. I told her the diapers do not stay on, here's my receipt, my cc I used, and the diapers (only one missing). She proceeds to deduct the one diaper from my total. I'm like that's not even on the receipt to do that. She said she would call the supervisor The supervisor was lovely, but if that's the store policy, she couldn't do anything about it. She could not even show me the written policy anywhere w/in the store when asked. She offered that the manager would be back after lunch, which I did not want to wait for, so I took my refund, deducted by the one inferior diaper I used, and left fuming. I could see if 2,3, or 4 were missing, but one? Ya, I've never heard such ludicrous business practices as was used today. I won't be returning... read more

Went in yesterday evening trying to find another dog food to give my Frenchie. I was overwhelmed by the selection since my dog has skin allergies. Aki guided me in a selection of dog food that would best suit my dog. He informed me if my dog doesn't like the food I can bring back with store receipt. As I approached the front I was greeted by the cashier Omar. He also informed me about a program for the dog food. He made some small talk with me and I appreciate it. We sometimes forget how important it is to make a connection with people, even a simple hello goes along way. Both these gentlemen were awesome in providing great customer service. I walked out definitely making this place my store for my dog. Thank you both! * We need more stores like these that are willing to help in guiding there customers with there pet needs. read more

Employees were extremely helpful and friendly when I called to ask about bird cages, and even more so when I came in to pick one up! Their cages were excellent price, and Joshua helped me get the cage measurements so it was perfect for my bird. I 100% recommend for any bird-cage needs. They also have an excellent assortment of live fish, fish keeping equipment, and aquarium! Their fish seem well taken care of - their Koi are even in a pond-like setting. I 100% recommend for fish as well. They also carry dog and cat stuff (dog treats are up at the front for your friend!), as well as other small animal care. A very good pet shop, highly recommend over Petsmart and other shops in Salinas for pet supplies. read more

This place is overall super, with one or two minor things off. They have a great selection of high end and super high end pet food, stuff you can't normally find anywhere. Brands like Victor and Diamond are fully stocked with a large variety, which is perfect for our working K9s. The staff are marginally knowledgeable about the products, but really very helpful as much as possible. And they are really happy to special order anything you can't find on their very nicely stocked shelves. And on top of all that, the prices are really awesome. Join their club thing, it's really worth it. We have 2 working K9 GSD, one retired K9, and two pet GSD. So keeping this lot properly fed, with all the varied dietary needs can run quite a bit. Shopping at PetFun makes it fit in the budget nicely. We drive over 30 minutes to get what we want here, because they even beat the online pricing. And the staff are super friendly, so the trip is worth it. read more

This place isn't the same ever since John and Alejandro left. They have some decent fish since josh came back. The other staff just have attitude. read more

I would definitely come back here. Right when you walk on you are greeted. I live in Gilroy and was looking for places in San Jose all the way down to Salinas for places that have fish. The reviews were great and it looked like they had a good selection. When we walked in you hear the birds so of course my daughter wanted to check them out. They have alot of products that Most places do not carry. I have gone to Petco and Petsmart for fish, but at Petco they don't really know what fish are aggressive and have told me, oh these will be fine.... just to have my fish eaten by other fish. We went to the back to look at the fish area and of course my daughter says "ohhhhhh I want a dory fish. Oh look it's nemo" haha. I explain to her that we cant because they are freshwater fish. The employee there greets is and asks if we need any help. I tell him about our aggressive fish that ate our others. He asked what it was so I pulled it up on the internet showing him. So I asked him what other fish I could put with him. He showed me different options. I have a second tank and got a bunch of fish for the second tank also. I loved how they had a lot of options for different kinds of fish and plants. They didn't have a bunch if dead fish floating around like other pet stores. They keep their tanks clean. When we were done they walked us up to the counter with the fish. Was a quick check out process! read more

We had the pleasure of working with Josh, manager of the fish department as of 2023. Josh helped us procure about 100 fresh water snails for a summer camp activity without any stress. He was very knowledgeable, kind, and generous with his time and support. I highly recommend pet fun for their customer service, knowledge base, and in-store selection. read more

I love Pet Fun. They have a great selection, a convenient location, but the biggest difference between them and the other guys is the service. Awesome personal service with knowledgeable employees. The entire staff are helpful and will listen to all of your questions and give you the answers and suggestions you need. I especially appreciate the people who work in the fish department (Josh x2 and Zoe), who will give you a high level of service every time whether you're buying a 2 dollar fish or a 20 dollar fish. read more

I visit this store a lot. Kind of like a hometown business not a huge chain store, but they have friendly staff and a good inventory. I bring my recently adopted dog in, she loves sniffing around and usually she gets a treat from the staff. Also, they give military and veterans discount.I really appreciate that. They got my business! read more

My boyfriend and I went to Pet Fun for the first time today. I read reviews and was even referred to them by a few locals, I have driven by and it felt like a cozy place - so we were really looking forward to going in! We just moved here mid-June and tragically lost our 7 year old Fire Oscar just before we got to bring him with us. To cheer me up, my boyfriend suggested we finally check this place out and he would put together a whole new tank set up for me to start fresh with something new. The place seemed well-stocked, and being an animal behaviorist I was making note of what they had in order to eventually HOPEFULLY refer them to my large client base. But after today, I don't think I will be. My reason for the one-star is for the employees and their treatment of their customers. We were rushed by the fish room employee asking if we needed help. We very politely said "No thank you, we're just looking. But we'll let you know." He stormed off back into the fish room. When we walked in to look around, he started running in between my boyfriend and I. Shoving past me, stepping on my foot and pushing past my boyfriend to get to the other side of him. He wasn't doing anything with the tanks, and wasn't helping anybody else. Just getting in our way and standing on us. He did this two more times, circling us and standing RIGHT on top of me, stepping on the backs of my shoes! This is not ok - personal space? My boyfriend told him to please stop circling us, because he was pushing us around this very tiny space, orbiting us, and stepping all over me! He ran out of the aisle, said something to some other customers standing around the corner, to which they all laughed at. And then he went to the other cashiers and started talking to them and they all started glaring at us! What were we going to do? Steal a fish? We were trying to heal some grief! Feeling extremely uncomfortable and Unwelcome, we left the fish room - where the same employee got in our way once again, blocking us! We promptly put the one item we had back - choosing to not spend anything here! We walked out and did get a "have a nice day" from the woman up front. But after the treatment by the kids in the back, my day has not been that great after. I will continue to search for a nice small pet store to spend my money and refer all my animal clients to. Extremely disappointing. read more

One of my favorite fish places. I wanted some rocks for my aquarium and the dude called me when they got them in stock. Super helpful. And a good selection of healthy fish. I also get my dogs and cat food there. Excellent selection. Great staff as well. read more

I've been buying fish from Petsmart and most of them died...an angelfish, an African dwarf frog and two neon tetras :(. One ADF made it though. Every one I got from Petfun are all still alive which includes another Cute ADF, cute little black one, a black phantom tetra, a bleeding heart tetra, a red finned tetra and a gold tetra (not sure what he's called but he has gold shimmers, very pretty). They even do returns if a fish is nippy. I also just got an angelfish that they let me call and request a special order because I wanted a platinum white one, it's beautiful and doing great so far! Strongly recommend this place for buying pets! The pet supplies are a bit pricey but my experience with this place seems to have better quality and better customer service. read more

I love this store because of JOSH!!!!! going in having no knowledge of how to keep up with a fish tank I bought from someone. And Josh saved me and my fishes!!! What a great expert. I left the store with great hopes and confident my friends will be okay. I did everything he showed me to clean and feed them properly. He even helped me identify my friends lol if you're looking for help JOSH is they guy!! He won't be there Friday or Saturday. read more

Great place for fish and pet supply. If you purchase any fish stay away from the guy I think his name is angel. I think he might be the assistant supervisor or supervisor. He knows nothing about fish; his rude and will rush you to pick the fish. If you do wanna know anything about aquariums or fish the best person to talk to is ashley. Great personality and very helpful person. Maria and there's another white short girl there that are also helpful and knowledgeable workers with great personality and friendly people. I have purchased about 100 or more fish there and the owner ray is a great and knowledgeable person also that been in the fish game for years. So if anyone wants to purchase any fish ask for ashley and wait for it cause you will get the best experience at the store. read more

Great salt water selection. If you have any questions ask for angel or Maria they are both very knowledgeable and helpful and will make your shopping experience great, the fish manager only helps who she wants and is kind of rude! read more

Honestly, speak to an employee!!! They're supper helpful and informed! I was going to buy my dog aspirin for my dog and Kristine spoke to me about giving her CBD oil it has no side affects like aspirin does and she Informed me that it was actually harming one of the pets she knew was becoming ill from the aspirin they sold and the pet was dying. So the manager took that medicine out of the shelves!! Such a nice and considerate company. Not only that but she helped me more than my vet has with feeding my dog now I no longer worry if she's missing any critical vitamins! I promise I'm not a fake account I usually have bad experiences but this is the best one yet 5 starts to Kristine! read more

While visiting friends in Salinas, I stopped to purchase clippers and anything else I found for my chihuahua. After spending some time in the store, I asked if I could use the restroom and was told, No public restrooms. Due to medication I take it was an emergency. I was forced to leave store and find a restroom elsewhere. I refuse to go back and buy anything from there. Sorry, their loss of a sale. Poor customer service in my opinion. read more

On my first visit here a couple months ago, I asked about recommendations for switching my dog's food. I had done some research, but the woman kindly steered me in another direction. The woman seemed knowledgeable and recommended a food I hadn't heard of, but she swore by it. I tried it for a couple months and my dog didn't seem thrilled. Then come to find out, this is the ONLY store around that sells this particular food. I had specifically asked for something that was more readily available... Last week, I went in to get recommendations on a specific brand, after doing much more extensive research. The woman, a different one, was kind of rude right off the bat. I asked about the particular brand and she asked what I was feeding now. I then got lectured about trying all the options in my current brand. She then went on to provide her very strong bias towards a raw diet and the fact that my vet doesn't know what she's talking about. Well, I didn't ask about a raw diet. I asked about a specific brand. I didn't ask to get a rude, biased lecture about why I shouldn't choose this new brand, when her only back-up was that I should try other options in my current brand. The entire experience rubbed me the wrong way. I don't appreciate being recommended a food that they know they are the only local store that sells it - when I specifically asked for something readily available. I will not be going back. Two stars because of the selection of supplies. But the staff are a total and complete turn off. They won't be getting any more of my business. read more
