Awesome store. The woman who helped me (sorry, didn't remember her name) was wonderful, helping me to choose my first reptile, one that my grandchildren would enjoy. We took home a Bearded Dragon and the supplies we need to get off to a great start The woman was patient, and shared a lot of great tips on how to take care of the lizard. 5 stars for sure! read more

It smells awful in this store they also treated me and my family differently because of our race. I over heard one of the employees talking about another customer and it seems u unsanitary please don't give them any of your monies ! read more

They are a horrible business that cuts corners and refuses to pay people of other ethnicities. They haven't paid for a 40+ hour work week, their work conditions are poor and it's horribly managed. They need to be held accountable for their actions WE ARE TIRED OF THIS. read more

I like to tour pet stores and look at animals in my free time and this place was unkempt to say the least. They have a good size ball python in the middle of the store in an enclosure that is far too small with poor husbandry. No place for it to hide so it say coiled right in the middle, practically filling the entire tank. I asked if the enclosure was permanent or temporary and was told it was temporary but that's hard to believe when they have a bundle deal for you to purchase the snake with the enclosure. A ball python of that size requires at least a 4x4x2 enclosure. read more

Vet says the live feeders we got most likely resulted in our 2 1/2 year old leopard gecko's death. Six months to a year ago I would have given them a five star review but I am finding it hard not to give them a one or two now ---so I will do an average. Starting in 2022, I had been concerned that the live insects we were getting weren't looking as good. The live insects I have bought since roughly February have started dying much sooner, like a few days after I pick them up I start finding dead ones. I also have noticed in the past when I would online order live bugs, instead of having the order ready to go, they had to get them from a large container where it appeared they were quite healthy.... In addition there was usually a little food inside as well. Now the live feeders are already in containers to go and sometimes have and sometimes do not have food in the container. I appreciate the speed with which they grab things but I would rather a healthy product Our leopard gecko was not eating, we took her to an exotic vet and after a thorough examination and plenty of discussion determined threat she likely had a parasite from the food. She died that same day --- the vet said most likely do to the added stress of the exam given how ill she was. The vet expressed there had been a change of ownership at Rainforest Pets from one family member to another. She also said there is a supply chain issue with getting live feeders so perhaps there had been a switch in the store's suppliers. All I know is I am going to terribly miss our gecko and it is hard not to feel it started with Rainforest Pets food supply. Sad read more

The staff here are truly amazed! Extremely helpful! They have a great selection of bugs, feeders, and always something new and fun to see! Definitely recommend this to any of my friends and family who have reptiles or looking to get one! read more

Love. Only place in town to get our darling snake dinner. Lovely people and cool store

A nice little store serving very niche products and animals to Houstonians. The owner was a little standoffish to me, But it is evident that the staff and owner care and are trying their best to provide good care and recommendations. They have been in business for over 20 years for a reason. Thank you for being a valued member of our community. -BD read more

This place is great, not any other pet store like it thats close by. They have great quality feeder rats, mice, and bugs. I have bought two snakes from them, both of which had been surrendered by a previous owner. They have both been healthy and had no issues. Animals seem well cared for considering how most pet stores treat animals. Prices may be a bit high on some things but generally this place is affordable. Workers are knowledgeable. read more

cool place however I bought a sling from them (baby tarantula) and I wanted to confirm my information and the lady misled me and my spider ended up dying yesterday. so def don't ask any questions here. read more

It may be a small place but it's wonderful! They pack a lot in; from the variety in reptiles to their food. This is my go-to place for my tarantula's roaches. The prices are fair and the staff is very helpful and friendly. Nowhere else can compare for your exotic pet needs! read more

We have bought several pets from Rainforest over the past years 10 years and have never been disappointed. This time was no different!!! We first went in and spoke to a young lady (not sure of her name) who was SUPER knowledgeable in the bio active terrarium for a leopard gecko, we were immediately sold on the idea. We spoke to the Manager this morning and by the time we came in this afternoon our tank was ready to go. Our daughter loves it and we are really happy with the way it turned out. Great job Rainforest Pets!!! read more

I give 2 stars because the selection is good. However, this place is not clean and organized. They are all over the place on price.... Total rip off on feeder guppies and crickets. Clean the place. Put in new ceiling. New floor. Clearly mark prices. If you asked multiple employees what the cost is on something they will give you different prices. That's ridiculous. The owners daughter however is extremely knowledgeable and a pleasure to deal with I wish she was the only employee that I had to interface with. I think she is the owners daughter anyway. The place needs a complete overhaul and a damn good manager. read more

I went here yesterday just to check it out--it was a typical pet shop nothing too special. When I walked in I wasn't greeted even though the manager or owner was sitting at the cashier in the front entrance. When I walked in it was two girls cuddling the kitties and when I looked down it was a black cat staring at me. WEIRD! I walked to the back of the store where the fishes were, and they were a lot of aquarium tanks. The fishes were $4.99 -- $16.99. Pretty pricey, but go figure. They had this one aquarium that was filled with the cast of Finding Nemo, I noticed Dorey first then Nemo and shrimp guy. It was so cool. Then after that I walked to the side wall and it was bird food, and a few dog items. They had more female dog dresses than male dog clothing. In the front the big spiders are behind the cashier. I didn't like the store and I won't be back. read more

I've been here about 4 times but my niece probably 50. She mentions this place on a weekly basis and her dream is to work here when she turns 16 cause she is so obsessed with animals and caring for them. The customer service here is great and I love that it's a local spot for us here in league city. They are located right outside my neighborhood. The animals are kept well and clean. I will always buy animals from them in the future. read more

Rainforest Pets - Pet Stores Near Me - League City, Texas

Amazing staff, amazingly clean and beautiful facility! So much nicer than other individually run pet stores I've been to. I love that you can interact with the animals there, and that they have hand sanitizer everywhere around the store for that very reason. It's very warm and welcoming in that place, like a family instead of a business! The animals are well taken care of, they seem very happy and healthy. The staff is knowledgeable and sociable. I plan to visit weekly if I can! HIGHLY recommend! read more

Recent transplant to the area and needed a new 22" T5 10.0 UV bulb for for my dragon to replace the one that broke during the move. They had it in stock, unlike the big box pet stores that don't really cater to exotics. Really nice selection of feeders as well, much better than I was accustomed to at my old home. All of the staff were friendly and knowledgeable. Prices are on point. Definitely recommend this place. read more

Dirty, smelled of urine.... Way too many critters per cage in my opinion... prices were high

This place is amazing and have a the best selection of reptiles and enclosures. I had a personal situation come up and they took care of me. Will recommend to anyone and they have the best customer service! read more

We love this store!! The employees have a lot of knowledge of the products they are selling. They always have everything I need or get it within a day! I will always shop here and always recommend it to other people! read more

I usually go in here and love every experience. Lately, however, the store is ALWAYS out of super worms. I have never had this issue before. Today when I went in I was especially irritated. I ordered superworms online and was told my order would be ready by 1:15. I drove about 30 minutes to get the worms just to get there and be told that I would get a text when they were back in stock. So instead of letting customers know that BEFORE they waste their gas and drive to the store, you guys just cost people money they shouldn't have to spend. Maybe before letting people drive so far, yall should let them know beforehand if they're going to have to wait for their order. read more

This place is extremely.... interesting... I feel like every time I walk in this place it looks different. I really do enjoy the black cat they have walking around the store (it's super friendly), but that's about the only thing that I like here. There have been several times I've come here and they're completely out of dubia roaches and super worms which is honestly crazy to me, but beside that the employees are always rude about it too..? Every time they're out of something I ask for it ALWAYS comes with an attitude which I really don't understand. They keep rabbits/small rodents in bins on the ground and sometimes they're just opened. I also came in one day and they had a bearded dragon priced at $400 and I almost fell over. They claimed she was their breeder dragon and that just rubbed me the wrong way completely. When I asked about her they had the attitude of "oh we're done with her so someone else can just have her now" instead of recognizing the dragon as a living being. I also hardly ever see food in any of the animals dishes in all of the times I've gone there. But the thing that upsets me the most about this place is the feeder mice.. I know this is an exotic pet store, but the feeder mice are literally out in the open and you can just see them all shoved into these tiny bins. I'm pretty sure the store wasn't like this before where you could see them out in the open, but you can now and it's truly disturbing. The last time I went there will definitely be the last time because I can't handle the rudeness of the employees PLUS the very clear neglect of animals that goes on here. read more

I've been coming here since I was a teenager and I love this store. They have a nice variety of different kinds of animals and fish and very nice prices. You can find different things here that aren't carried in a large chain store. It's a small space but packed with awesomeness. The owner, Dale, has always been helpful and answered many questions for me over the years. I visited yesterday and the guys there were also very helpful. The people posting negative reviews must be crazy. Plus according to their profiles they aren't even local. I've been coming here over 15 years and have always had a good experience each and every time I visit and have never had any issues with any animal I have purchased here. This store is one of the few gems left when it comes to a mom and pop pet store. read more

These people took my daughter's FFA bunnies that she worked hard on and advertised them as feeder rabbits. I turned to them to help find homes for them. I never would have left them there if I knew they were going to sell them as food. I gave them to them and they turned around and made a profit. It's very disturbing that people would be this cruel. My children were with me when we dropped them off. We made it very clear we wanted them to go to good homes. read more

Great locally owned store. We get all of our supplies for our bearded dragon here. We have also boarded her a few years ago when we went on vacation read more

I love this pet shop. They are my go to for feeder mice and snake supplies. Fairly priced. Friendly staff. They don't hover and make you feel obligated to adopt a kitten even though they know your willpower is weak. read more

This is a great pet store. The staff is very helpful and friendly. They have a good selection of food and supplies for our bearded dragon and have been able to answer any questions I have had. Definitely check them out. read more

Cleaner than most places but still really small for the number of animals in each cage. Just stressed me out a little. Had a good variety and they were attentive and really friendly. Customer service is very important. read more

Every time I have gone there all of the employees have been a big help figuring out what I need. They do sometimes have a shortage of supplies so it's a good idea to call them 1st if you're coming from a distance. Would definitely recommend this business to my friends and family. read more

The employees are extremely knowledgable and helpful with even the dumbest of questions. The prices are very reasonable, and the quality of the animals is above any chain pet store. read more

Meh, its a neat little shop. They are doing a lot to improve it. Superworms are a chance though. Sometime they're big so.etimes they are, well... not so super. read more

We come here all the time to get cockroaches for our bearded dragon. Everybody is helpful and friendly. They've got a good variety of animals and they all look healthy, unlike Petsmart or Petco where the animals sometimes look half dead as they're shipped in bulk in terrible conditions. I recommend Rainforest Pets to all of my friends. read more

Was on the hunt for cat flea shampoo and just googled pet stores. Obviously noticed it was called Rainforest pets but was considering that maybe it was just the name. We walked in and asked if they carried the shampoo. The blonde haired man rudely looked at us and said "it's called rainforest pets..." a no would have sufficed. He paused and said "reptiles man." There was no reason to be rude for mistaking the pet store in the first place. read more

I purchased a chameleon and two bunnies from this store. Chameleon was told to be 4 months old, she was 8 months, pregnant... and had a vertebrae fracture. She was also housed with other females in one dirty giant cage which is not proper, and died. The two bunnies were housed in a dirty cage on the floor with 10 other bunnies, both of those bunnies ended up being sick. Store manager stated that she hadn't had any problems with any of her animals. They recommended me several things for the chameleon, all that were not correct for the animals. Stay away from this store. read more

The owner is really friendly. His employees are nice. We buy a lot of millet and assorted other bird things from them. A fun place to shop and look at all the cute critters that they have. read more

Small family business with a big company mentality when it comes to making sure they have the latest and greatest products for their customers. They continue to stock and try new items that their customers need. I really enjoy the expertise and friendly assistance when I come in. This is my go to spot for reptilian supplies and an occasional new pet when I am in the mood. Give these guys a try, you won't be disappointed. read more

This place is awesome. We go there once a month to get rats for our pet snake. They have all kinds of exotic animals and they are very friendly. The staff is very friendly as well. The owner is a combat veteran and is really nice too. read more

I feel this place is a little small. Too many mice, cockatiels, etc in one cage. Loved the older, friendly black cat who followed me around. They had what I needed. Friendly employees. Thank you very helpfully. read more

They seem to have a lot of different kinds of pets, but its cramped & not very clean. The staff seems to enjoy helping customers. Have purchased anything here yet. read more

I come to this local pet shop to get food for our ball python. I have never had a bad experience at the store. Everyone has been nice/polite. No problems whatsoever from the staff. read more
