This was a cute little pet store in downtown Portland. The aisles are a bit small and it was hard to manuever with a larger dog. They offer a good selection of items being a smaller space. I wanted to find a "good girl" treat for my fur baby and they had just what I needed! read more

Went there two times, once to get my dog a harness, and two weeks later because we were in the neighborhood- and the second time the staff there remembered my dog by name. They are so attentive, considerate, and welcoming, making us feel like we've been regulars for years. Deserving of more stars. read more

The Fish & Bone - Outside - Pet Stores Near Me - Portland, Maine

The staff is always helpful and willing to help me navigate whatever issue my pup is experiencing! They've been great with food recommendations and have even allowed me to return a chew (we think) my pup is allergic to. They've helped me select brain games for my smart girl as well! read more

Love this place! Great quality and very affordable. They treat their customers like family.

Super helpful friendly staff. Great selection of treats and supplies. Will definitely return!

I stopped by The Fish & Bone to pick up a gift for a friend's pet and was delighted by the selection and friendly service. Supporting local businesses is close to my heart, especially as an animal artist. It's wonderful to see a store that cares for our furry friends as much as I do in my art. Check out my work at https://mariespauldingart.com/ read more

Fish and Bone is exactly the type of pet store I would expect to find in Portland: locally owned, locally loved and locally supplied pet supplies. It is clear the owners love animals and their customers. Just about anything you could need for your pet you can find here. Can't find something in the store? The owners will do everything they can to get it for you. Free snacks for pets even if you don't have them with you. Location is great because it's right in the heart of everything so you don't have to drive miles to get stuff you may need. read more

I recently called Fish and Bone for a product I needed. Because of the Coronavirus they are not open but ordering items for customers. Long story short after a phone conversation, I ordered the item. Colleen quickly called me back to give me a direct link to the distributor so I could save time getting the item and save $$. How many businesses do that? Fish and Bone! read more

It may be inflation Christmas this year, but as far as I'm concerned this means you just buy more for the animals in your life! I don't even have any of my own at the moment, but I discovered Fish & Bone and have treated the dogs and cats of my friends to the following: lobster-shaped toys (squeaky for dogs, catnip-stuffed for the felines); super stanky treats that taste like lobster, cod, and Icelandic fish (note: I did not actually taste these myself but the critters sure seemed to love them); dog and cat "wine" (stinky liquid in little wine-shaped bottles, I mean c'mon you can't resist); and other random little toys and things to bat around and chew on. Truly, this is a pet emporium of wonderfulness and treats, along with all the basics too (pet food, leashes and gear, etc.). Very friendly staff too, and each time I've been in there were cute dogs wandering around or snoozing behind the counter, so what's not to love? It'll be great when I have my own pet to treat here, but until then all the ones I know will continue to get lucky. This is a happy place to be! read more

Fish & Bone is my go-to for dog equipment recommendations. I have gotten a couple excellent Ruffwear harnesses here and the staff is so nice and awesome with helping size my lab mix. They even reply to short notice Facebook messaged questions! Highly recommend shopping local if you're unsure what your dog needs. Also a sort of unbelievable treat selection if you're training and need some high-value or very specific treats. And cute dog toys. read more

I ordered a low cost specialty item from their online web store and there was a minor issue with what we received. I contacted the store by phone (a half hour before they opened, but they still answered) and spoke with Sylvie who provided spectacular customer service. I also communicated with Colleen by email, who was equally helpful. After this experience, I plan to convert as much of our pet supply purchasing as possible from the big online retailers to The Fish & Bone. Thank you for being awesome! read more

The Fish & Bone - Lucy, Mila, and Badger - Pet Stores Near Me - Portland, Maine

Wanting to get my pup something for our long drive back to NY, we stopped here prior to getting on the road. At first, I was hesitant to bring my pup inside, as there didn't seem to be other dogs inside. I was proven wrong. There were a ton of other dogs taking refuge from the heat inside the shop! My dog, the ever curious one, was quick to walk in between the treat and toy sections. Their diverse selection of treats must have been wonderful to smell; she seemed like she was having the most wonderful time! The staff were excellent, both to my pup and I. One of the ladies on the floor gave her treats, which she seemed to really enjoy. Shout out to the young man with the short hair behind the counter, Shane, whose exceptional customer service skills make me wish Fish and Bone were closer to us. He seemed to be a true pet lover, which you can just tell by the way he acted towards my pup. I'm sure if Kathy (the wonderful owner) were to open a store in NY, it would be a hit. I very much look forward to bringing my pup here again. read more

They had a ton of cute stuff here. I was looking for a doggy birthday cake or cookie and got a whoopie pie with sprinkles that worked for us to celebrate Colton's gotcha day. Of course he loved it. I was also looking for some dog cologne but they didn't have any or ran out. The staff was friendly and knowledgeable. The prices are a bit higher than your average pet chain store but that is understandable. read more

Omg I don't understand how this place doesn't have 5 stars EXACTLY!!! Brought my rescue pup in yesterday and the employees were so friendly and helpful with EVERYTHING. So kind. The first thing they asked when I came into the store was if my pup could have a treat (and even asked if she had allergies). Which I was so impressed by. And I know my dog liked it cause she refused to leave and I had to carry her to the car. read more

The Fish & Bone - Thanks for recommending the puzzle feeder for little Mabel! We can't wait to come back. - Pet Stores Near Me - Portland, Maine

Very friendly knowledgeable staff who love all 4 legged creatures. They special order a dog food that they don't normally have on hand. Our puppy always feels welcomed and loved here. And drags his feet when we have to leave. read more

These guys are just the absolute best! Their prices are actually comparable to online websites and the service is spectacular :-) Shopping local is a great pleasure! read more

Customer service was awful, employees seemed more concerned with their own conversations then helping customers. I went in and out without anyone saying a word to me. read more

I've been coming here a while and forgot to post this review. I work in the Old Port and I love this shop. I first stepped in out of curiosity to find out what kind of pet store is in a tourist area. I'm glad I did since they carry all kinds of high quality pet food and treats. My pets eat Taste of the Wild which is hard to find and these guys carry almost every flavor. They have Primal and several other frozen foods and broths. Their treats are great quality and I grab my dog a salmon skin anytime I stop in. They have the necessities as well. Poop bags, litter boxes, collars, tags, food and water dishes, leashes, etc. Finally, they have things for humans. First, they have clothing, jewelry, and accessories. More importantly, they have a reward program that is pretty good. Definitely shop here for your pets if you work anywhere near the Old Port area. read more

Stopped in with our 6 year old yellow lab after spending the day on the beach with him. Had read you can "take the salt off your dog" after a day at the beach and didn't quite know what that meant. We first looked outdoors for a hose/shower but learned that meant they have an indoor do-it-yourself dog wash. The room is visible at the front desk via a glass door. There are two side-by-side self-wash stations in a room that fits probably 3 people max. The room does not have a ceiling which is helpful as the humidity doesn't build as you wash your dog. We have only used one of these once at a chain pet store and it was so hot and humid in that store. Towels, shampoo, aprons, brushes and a dryer are provided. We brought our own shampoo but used everything else. The staff pretty much pointed you to the room and left it to you to figure everything out. We're glad we had used one of these before so had a little clue. The positives; the staff leaves you alone, everything you need is there, the room is comfortable in terms of temperature/humidity, you don't have to clean up after you finish, the price is reasonable ($16 for a 60-80 pound dog). The cons: if you needed assistance, you would have to go out and get their attention, the dryer blows cold air and was making a loud, distressed screaming sound on high and a rattling noise above the room accompanied the sound. This must be "normal" as none of the staff ever came in to see what all the noise was. We turned the dryer off and then back on low but it still continued to sound distressed. We did buy a small bag of dry Fromme dog food for our lab (which is his "regular" brand of food) and it was reasonably priced. Convenient for anyone who is bringing a dog to the ocean but does not live locally. We would return again under these circumstances. read more

I really liked being able to shop at The Fish & Bone on Commercial Street in Portland. They have a wide selection of all things pet supplies and they feature many items that I have not seen anywhere else before. It is fun to check out all of the different supplies that they have available and I was able to find many things that I wanted to purchase as gifts. I like how this store was organized as they are able to fit so many things in the space they have available. The vibe and atmosphere here is fun and free and enjoyed being here among it all. The staff here was really cool and friendly and knowledgeable about all things pet related. I had a really good experience here and recommend it for all pet owners. read more

The Fish & Bone is a nice little pet store right in the heart of the city. It's across the street from the harbor. They have just about everything you need for your pet. Include Kong products and Blue Buffalo! A dog is not a dog unless it has a Kong in its life, trust me I know! Yogi & Benji play more with there Kong toys then they do with me. The staff was very helpful and courteous for us. We honestly just walked in because we were thinking of our dogs which were back home since we were on vacation. Yogi loves playing with chew rags and Benji pretty much chews on anything that squeaks. So in memory of our dogs and our trip to Maine from Miami. We got Yogi and lobster rag and Benji a squeaky lobster. Trust me I know the boys will love them. Thanks again! read more

Help was very kind, as well. Oh, also - I like their logo alot. Their website is nice - the owner has a blog, announcing events and other dog stuff. read more

I LOVE Fish and Bone and my dog love it more. There's a great range of products, the store is well organized, and the staff is wonderful. They are super helpful, knowledgeable and friendly. A couple staff members know my name and my dog's name. I needed some toys to distract my dog and I realize they close at 5 on Sundays not 6. I HATE being that person who comes in 15 minutes before closing. They were so sweet, and didn't rush me or the couple who came in afterwards. Please support them! Some people might think some of there products are a bit expensive but I've only ever had quality products from them and the staff is super helpful in giving a honest reviews regardless of price. read more

My dog came into the store and he loved the store. He got to search around and be able to see all of the toys and clothing that he wanted. A little pricey but definitely worth the expense. read more

We were in the area to pick up our new puppy and locals told us we must experience this store! I was intrigued by the name alone (I love it!) and we decided to head on over to pick up some things for our new puppy. What an adorable and friendly store!! The customer service was wonderful, the staff so helpful and attentive, and the selection is great, love the diverse! Picked up a fleece jacket for our new puppy to keep him warm this winter, I love and can't wait for long walks knowing he will be nice and warm in his smart looking coat! If we ever get back to Portland, we will surely stop in for a visit and some shopping again! read more

The staff is always friendly and helpful here. I can't remember how long this place has been a place (formerly Fetch from Munjoy Hill) but my oldest dog is 14 and we've always gone there for his sweaters or coats or toys, food or snacks. For Xmas we got a gift certificate from Mother who misplaced it before getting it into my stocking. She also had thrown away the receipt. All is lost right? Enter Sylvie. My wife and I were in shopping for jacket for our new puppy who upon meeting the bigger dog Dorrie, promptly wet the floor. All good. Sylvie just disappears for a second and pops back with paper towels, spray cleaner and a smile. She (and Dorrie) assist in trying on all the coats that fit our Picnic and at one point asks how much we wanted to spend. My wife mentions a number and laments that if we had our gift certificate we would spend more. So here's the thing. We don't even know what day the gift card was purchased. After some discussion we noted that a rubber chicken in a bikini was also gifted and that was all Sylvie needed. She found the purchase in the computer and credited us the $40! Seriously. I work at a luxury car store and can honestly say that this transaction will be brought to the attention of all on my team as an example of the highest level of thoughtfulness. I just made this Yelp account for this read more

They were so great with our dogs as soon as we stepped into their store! They showered both of them in treats, and when one wouldn't eat her treats (she gets shy and sometimes just gets overwhelmed with all the things) the cashier put extras in my bag to give to her later when she felt more comfortable. I thought that was just so kind. Other than treats I bought a couple of super cute pins that say, "I love my rescue" and "Dog Lover". Really well made and perfect! read more

Really cute pet store. Lots of toy and treat options. We liked the bone cookie that had "Portland" written across it! read more

This space is compact and has multiple names right now... Fetch as most of us know it, Fish and Bone as they recently changed it. The space is packed with all sorts of collars, leashes, beds, bowls, treats, food and everything a great pet parent can buy to spoil thier furry buddies. The staff is friendly and knowledgeable so ask questions! Also, they have a reward program so get the card too. read more

Was in Portland, ME recently and ran a quick errand for a friend (whom I was visiting). He had suggested Fetch as the place to pick up some food for his pet who has a special diet. I decided to make it a fun outing, and took a short walk through the city to Commercial Street to this store. The location is beyond cute, is easy to find, the prices are reasonble, and the staff is incredibly friendly. The best part was the help offered by one of the staff in getting directions to the nearest bookstore. (I found it without a blip due to that person's help). For Portland folks, I'm jealous, you've got such a jem of a pet store. read more

We were visiting from Chicago and were delighted by this store! The selection and variety for both dogs and cats was great. The items we wanted that weren't in stock were easily ordered by the friendly staff and arrived at our home quickly. We would highly recommend this store for all of your pet needs and wants!!! read more

From the outside, I expected a high-end store similar to Best in Show in San Francisco, but the inside was kind of crowded and disheveled. Nonetheless, we got a cute collar for the doggie and a bright green foraging toy for the kitties. read more

What could possibly top being able to bring your completely adorable cat with you on a weekend getaway to Portland staying at the Portland Harbor Hotel? (you can imagine the strange looks in an elevator with a carrier, luggage and a litter box for a 2-night stay haha) Fetch, that's what! We found so many cute toys and snacks for our 'fuzzy child' here, and I can't wait to go back to stock up on more goodies. I just love small businesses that know how to do it right, and Fetch is one of them. They have so many unique and really nice pet toys, accessories and food. Definitely a big breath of fresh air compared to the pet megamarts out there (and that sea air wafting from across the street doesn't hurt either) ;) I will be back!....actually, I just might be back tomorrow when we head up for another weekend away (sans cat this time. We gotta bring back some souvenirs for her! haha) read more

Nice little pet store that seems to be having an identity crisis. Sign says Fetch, FB page says Fetch, Yelp page says Fetch, all of the bags, etc you get inside say Fish and Bone. Despite that, it's a solid pet store. It's small, but has a lot packed in. For the first time in my life I witnessed a "tasting" at a pet store. Yep, they were giving out tastes of Weruva to any dogs that came in. They also offered some to my husband. There is a decent selection for cats, which isn't always the case. My cat has allergies and I am always in search of different foods to try. While none of the cat food they carried would work for her, there were plenty of premium options for a cat with a reasonable diet. The staff were friendly and helpful. Definitely worth a stop if you are a pet owner. read more

Probably the only pet-related place on the peninsula worth visiting. They don't carry anything low quality here, eith the exception of one or two food brands. You can choose from a great selection of frozen raw food for cats and dogs here! They have re organized the store recently and added some beautiful shelves for their sweaters and coats, and treat jars are now out of "dog level." My dogs love the mix and match treats sold here by the ounce, and I love that they add new things to this selection from time to time! My pets have allergies, and this store offers more grain-free and single ingredient treats than any big box store around. Prices are also great here! Trust me, locally owned doesn't mean you're paying any more for your pet's food! Staff is overall well educated, though two employees (Shane and Sylvie) notably excel as far as customer service and knowledge goes. I always look to see if these two are working- both are friendly and so helpful, they're willing to answer any question or concern! Both have gone above and beyond in the past for me, and I've seen them do the same with others in the store. It's great to talk to a person who can direct you to answers easily, and explain nutrition well! Great store, whether you live in Maine or are just visiting. read more

Amazing selection of super cute toys, treats and amazing customer service and product knowledge & selection to boot!
