    Joe and Ray holding Olive & Penelope in their The Pet Stop store front. PHOTOGRAPHER: Karen Bednorz

    3/7/24 We've been loyal customers of The Pet Stop for over 20yrs. Joe & Ray were our multiple pet's family. Olive & Penelope's lifetime groomers. Recently Jacob & Francine bought and has picked up the torch of this community benefit business. An ever-so-slight preference learning curve, by third appointment, our Twins are as adorable as ever, and we are so pleased. For us, the transition is near seamless.

    My fur babies after they're grooming

    The New Owners are Great ! Very Patient and Caring to my dog's needs. Addressed all their grooming needs. Very happy and pleased with the outcome..( I took both my fur babies)

    Jacob and Francine are very friendly and my dog coco loves them. Our fury pets don't lie when it comes to good and kind groomers. Thank you for taking care of us just like Joe and Ray did for years! I want to wish you all the success you and your family deserve ! Welcome to our community and please keep up the great job! I love all the changes and the organization you have made to the shop it looks amazing. JOE AND RAY must be very proud they passed on the torch to you both. People must remember you bought and invested in the business it wasn't a donation. With new owners new ideas and great changes are welcome!!!Happy New Year 2025!!!

    Pepper!

    They don't know how to groom dogs. Very inexperienced. Not sure if they're even certified. Thankfully, they refunded my money.

    Called this store on the 11/26/2025 as I had a coupon for a free paw spa treatment. The coupon was…read moreexpiring that day, so it needed to be used. When I spoke to the customer service representative I was told that there were no groomers on site and that i could get a rain check and use the coupon on the weekend when the groomers were back. I called over the weekend and explained the situation to the groomers department, at which point they informed me that I would need to add a bath service in order to get the "free" spa paw service. I asked if I could speak to a manager and was transferred back to the front. The lady that answered was the same lady that I had spoken to on 11/26/25. She said she remembered the conversation and went to go speak to the store Manager, Sean. Sean stated that they could not honor the coupon but stated he could give me 20% off of the service. This is false advertising, and aside from that I was lied to. I asked Sean to please pass my information over to his boss, Nick who is the district manager. I waited 3 days for a call but I did not receive one. I called today and spoke to a rep. I explained the situation to the rep. He put me on hold and said he sent a text to the district manager and he too said they could only give me 20% off of the service. The rep stated he would pass my information on to Nick so he could give me a call. These people do not keep their word and do not return phone calls or reply to messages requesting a call. I love this store but sadly will not be returning and will be reporting the false advertising to the BBB.

When I asked the young woman at the front desk if they had any mice, she said, "You mean, frozen mice?" I said, "No, like for pets." She said unfortunately they do not. So they might have frozen feeders but no live mice. Anyway, I'd stop in again if I needed something I thought they would have. They're in a convenient strip mall just off the 101.

This is literally the place you need to go. My son has been begging us for a snake for years, and as he is pretty young, we didn't want to just dive in with it. He's in sixth grade now, and his little sister's in third grade. We figured they're probably old enough now to be able to take care of a reptile. I had seen this place advertised previously and we happen to be down in Ventura so we went and checked it out. We talked with who I would imagine is the owner, an extremely knowledgeable person who also happens to be friendly and helpful. He gave us what I would call almost too much information as we are brand new two the whole reptile thing, there's so much to learn and there's so much knowledge he wanted to impart on us The kids are interested in a baby snake of some kind, and we were lucky enough that they had a fair amount of young snakes in the shop of all kinds of different exotic varieties. We ended up taking a small python home in our kids are over the moon with it. It's a beautiful creature and they had a lot of of the items that we needed in stock there to be able to set up our terrarium correctly. I would highly recommend the shop, as everybody we spoke to there was very kind, professional, and knowledgeable. We will definitely be back

The employees are incredibly helpful and genuinely knowledgeable about all kinds of pets--you can ask real questions and get real answers.

See photos I never leave yelp reviews but I was completely disgusted about the welfare of the animals being kept in this store. They have WAY too many chickens being kept in tiny cages. I noticed some of the chickens pecking on one particular chicken's back / rear. Then I noticed blood on the chickens beaks and looked closer and the poor chicken is bleeding all over and is basically being eaten by the other chickens. I let the person behind the counter know and she looked horrified. I told her I think there are way too many chickens in the cage to which she agreed. She promptly removed the chicken and another employee told her to put the chicken in another cage that had a single chicken. I asked if they had anything to apply to the wounds and the guy looked confused and said yeah and disappeared to the back. I once again noticed the other chicken start pecking at the chickens bloody rear and told the guy once he came back that it should be by itself. He moved the chicken and sprayed something on its wound. I wish I could've taken the chicken but I don't have the means or space. To the owners - you absolutely shouldn't be selling chickens / other live animals. You clearly don't have the space / enclosures needed to house that many chickens and you clearly don't care about the animals you're selling. Your employees seem to have a lack of knowledge on animal care and should be trained to know what to do to care of injured animals. This is clearly an animals-for-profit type of pet store that anyone who loves animals should absolutely avoid. I usually avoid this place because the birds already sadden me, and I've heard of the poor care given to the live animals. I'll absolutely never return and I really hope the owners think hard about keeping these living animals. At the very least, keep a smaller amount. It doesn't seem like they're even selling much of these animals. It's just cruel. I'd like to know what happens with their chickens once they're too large for these tiny cages!

So I didn't come back for a while. Now I come here when my regular store doesn't have good Orchard hay. Ojai Valley Feed usually does. I've gotten good hay from them, though their hay is on a dirt lot so last time it was dragged across dirt before going into my truck. Maybe doesn't matter if you're tossing it for cattle or horses? But I'm feeding guinea pigs so I'd rather it not be dusty. I get it though, it's a feed store. I guess that's just the reason they're not my #1 go to for the hay and rather my #2. Prices are fair for the area. I like the guy who seems to own/run the place. He's super nice. The younger employees are fine but not enthusiastic. One time I visited and it was only the younger folks taking care of the store. I inquired about the fresh chicken eggs I'd seen here on Yelp and I was told pretty flatly that "Oh, you have to be on a list," and that was that. I felt totally shut down and felt the employee missed an opportunity to engage me as a customer, maybe ask if I wanted to be on the list, or tell me what the process to get on the list was (is there a time they expect to add new names to the list??) That's the only downside. Shop is small, but I was also super happy to see they sell feeder animals like crickets, mice and rats. I had just paid for a $60 purchase and realized I really needed 2 crickets. The shopkeeper gave them to me no charge. I know they're cheap but he didn't have to do that and I really appreciated it!
