Buddy in his habitat!!
Angela N.

On April 26th I went and purchased two bearded dragons along with all the tanks and accessories. We had the pleasure of having Jess help us. She is very knowledgeable and friendly. We had them put out tanks together so we knew it would be right for our dragons. I absolutely love the set up. I named my dragon Buddy! I feel Buddy is extremely happy in his habitat. These reptiles require live bugs to eat so we go at least weekly to get food for them. Every time we come in we are greeted and helped promptly. Everyone in there is super friendly and knowledgeable. I highly recommend this place!!! On another visit I took Buddy for a spa treatment. He got a bath and the complete treatment. It was a 30 minute procedure and he was pampered from head to toes....

I was asked to bring my bearded dragon in Aries my baby girl cause they wanted to see her for what i thought was parasites. Well i take her in and shes checked out by 2 workers the male worker looked and said she has a respitory infection but not in a bad state yet and to take her home and "bake her" basically just turn up the heat and let it clear. My dragon died 2 days later. Come to find out the heat which was properly and safely temp, is a no for resp infections because it basically suffercates them by taking the air they already are not getting much. I lost my baby. I have been grieving so hard cause she was not bad like anyone would think she would die and i was told to do something that basically killed her. They are not vets ill never take anyones advice whos not a vet i dont care if they have 50yrs experience with reptiles they gave me horrible advice that killed my baby cause they were very wrong. I hate this store they are trash.

Their idea of "jumbos..?"
J G.

Weird pricing choices. Went in a while back for hoppers. They told me they were sold out, and gave me the largest fuzzies available. But charged me for hoppers. Didn't notice until I got home, but let it go. Went back for small adult mice. I was told "these are our jumbos"...but they were small adult mice. I said "jumbos are a lot bigger than that" and he replied, "I know, but this is the biggest we have". Ok look, just because it's the biggest you have does not make them jumbos. And guess what I was charged for? Jumbos. Ridiculous. Here is a picture of a jumbo next to what they sold me and charged me for as a jumbo. Frustrating, because I really liked this place and the people, but I don't understand their charging practices.

I love how knowledgeable the staff is about every question you have. The price on different items are definitely reasonable. If you're into reptiles you should come to this establishment, they will take care of all your needs.

We bought a 4 month old Bearded dragon three weeks ago. He/she has been very healthy since I purchased her. The knowledgeable staff is always willing to help with any questions that I have. Would highly recommend going here instead of those big pet stores.

Mine on left are large adults on the right are "large" dubias that i received.

Quite hot and smelly inside but that's not what is most disappointing. Went in to return a ceramic heater and the person i was met with was sort of rude tone and she said i didnt even need the 100w bulb for my size tank and was making assumptions about my situation and didn't really have good communication skills. I instead traded off the bulb for some repashy gecko food and 100 ct mealworms and 12 ct LARGE dubias (important for later). She then went to check if she had them and left us at the counter so we just looked around and they found us and said i got them. So we went to the front and charged us for debit then we waited for the pay screen to pop up on the card swiper and she said i'll get ur mealworms so we continued to look around and saw such an emaciated malnourished bearded dragon in a tank. She said she could ring us up and we paid. We then waited for her to hand us our items because she only gave back our mealworms then she handed the dubias and food to what i found was a few super small dubias to which i paid extra for to make them large.

Bowie
Jennifer D.

AmaIng place! We got our little Bowie here back in November. We come her for all his items and they even check him out for a health check. He had issues with his eye and recommended a vet. They are awesome and we love going here! Great prices and they make you feel welcomed. Thank you guys!

He's so full of beans.

We bought our first reptile (a make tomato frog named Potato) from here a few months ago. All the staff are super friendly and knowledgeable. It's fun to look at all of their new animals and terrariums when we go in to pick up feeders for out little dude. I definitely recommend this business.

I went with my son to get ourselves our first reptile, a daunting prospect for us as neither of us have ever cared for one before.

So, I have been coming here for a few years now and it hadn't dawned on me to post a review until I…read morevisited yesterday for some pet supplies. Rachael and David, who I believe may be the owners, or at the very least managers (along with their staff), are always friendly, inviting and extremely knowledgeable about animals and what food, or toys may be best for your pet based on your circumstances. They are always inviting and willing to help. I have also found that the pet food products they carry are typically healthier for your pet, more so than you may find at the big chains and box stores. The quality and price points of the pet food are fair and they often times have promotions and discounts. Many of the promotions are buy 12 and get your next one free (ie; bag or case of food etc.). Also, on weekends they have vaccination clinics and sometimes adoption events. They even have a dog wash inside. Check with the store to find out when and how often the Vaccine clinics, pet adoptions and dog wash is available. This place is located in Modesto, in a shopping center that looks like an old western town (corner of Tully and Standiford). Bottom line, I am glad to have found a personable store for all my pets' needs and to be able to help support a local small business.

Always helpful, always kind, and knowledgeable! For anyone…read morewith farmina pet food, here is how to locate the coupons if you don't get the emails! First download the app FarminaGenius
