We just moved to Chico and I think we've found our new groomer! Even though Benny is used to being groomed, this was his first time with TrailBlazer. He went in being long overdue and came out looking so good! He got a bath, groom, and haircut, and couldn't be happier! The groomer asked questions to get to know him. We appreciated the care and kindness she showed towards our dog. We've booked his next appointment and look forward to this being our regular groomer! When rating our experience, we definitely give her 5 out of 5 barks! read more

So since they upped the price $20 for grooming; claiming supply costs and was not informed till after grooming was done. They decided to delete the review, cancel the nail trim appt without calling to let us know. They have lost me as a customer and I would think twice about doing business with them. Customer Service is awful. BTW the groomers are great. Too bad ownership is not! read more

Very disappointed with Trailblazers. They cancelled my dog's grooming appointment without notifying me, and I only found out when I showed up. When I called to rebook, they said they'd get back to me--then the next day, I was told they wouldn't groom my dog at all. Total waste of my time, and now I'm left scrambling to find another appointment elsewhere. read more

Love trailblazer! They carry good quality brands and have a TON of variety to choose from. Their groomers are especially great! Staff is always very welcoming, sweet, and very knowledgeable. I also appreciate that it is a local chain with more selection than bigger chain pet supply stores! read more

Absolutely wonderful and kind staff. I brought my dog in for a nail trim and they made so easy, in and out. I told them he was nervous but for the first time his tail didn't go between his legs. The groomer took him back without me and I could still hear them being so kind and sweet reassuring my pup it was ok and he was a good boy. This will be the only place I take my dog for now on. Thank you groomer Lou and the rest of the staff! read more

Len at Trailblazers is such an amazing groomer. For our Bernedoodle puppy, he nailed the first grooming (face feet fanny). He got her through it with grace. Today he did her first full haircut. Fabulous! Thank you!!! read more

The folks at Trailblazer are so wonderful -- my dog is a sweetheart and not all groomers take the care I expect. But she emerged happy and so cute. Also, staff wore masks (per covid) and all customers I saw did also. Thanks for taking care of my pup. (p.s. thanks for not cutting her eyelashes, they are sooooo long) read more

TrailBlazer Pet Supply - Pet Stores Near Me - Chico, California

This is my favorite pet store in town! The staff is knowledgeable and friendly. They treat our fur-babies as if they are their own. We have adopted two older Pomeranians in the last couple years with various skin conditions and health issues. They have always offered wonderful advice on different treatments to help with these conditions (such as food, shampoo, etc.). They have a a great selection and if they don't have what you're looking for then they are willing to help try to find it online, offer other alternatives, or offer suggestions of where to find what you need. We always take our dogs here for grooming. We absolutely love Jeanette! She (and the rest of the staff) always take the time to get to know our dogs. Our German Shepherd is extremely vocal and has high anxiety when my husband or I leave him, but they're always very patient with him and willing to work with him. This pet store goes the extra mile and prides themselves on taking care of their customers with advice and knowledge, a great selection of supplies, excellent customer service, and, most importantly, loving our pets! Thank you, Trailblazers! read more

Great place to go if you're looking to feed your dog or cat a biologically appropriate diet. Pricey, but the dogs deserve it

We took our small dog to be groomed here on several occasions. Our groomer was Emma. She always did an amazing job! We were sad to move out of town and lose her as a groomer. I would highly recommend this store and specifically Emma for your grooming needs. Our dog loved going to see her and always left looking adorable. Thank you Emma! read more

Re: Grooming. I had a really great experience with the staff and felt comfortable to leave my Husky there. You can tell they care a great deal about your pet and their overall experience. They did an amazing job! My husky is happy and the bandana was a cute addition ti the groom. We are looking forward to the next visit. Thank you! read more

Great selection of products, competitive pricing, and friendly staff. However, twice the store has not called me back to set up a grooming appointment for my dog. I have had Trailblazer perform this service before, and it is frustrating to not receive a return call. I'm afraid I'm going to have to change businesses. read more

Best pet supply place in Chico. Our go to spot for Veggie Mash, Stella and Chewy patties, Orbee Balls, raw bone and green tripe... Too much to list. Owners are amazing. Staff is super friendly. read more

I found out about this place on the Nextdoor App. Lucky for me they were celebrating their 10th anniversary and everything in the store was 10-20% off and they had free goodie bags for your dog and free snacks (great appetizers and wine) for adults! This place is very small but uses every nook and corner and fills every space with great products. The staff is very knowledgeable and I bought items I had never heard of before such as Buba Chews Water Buffalo Horn, Lamb horn, deer antler, beef marrow bones and more. With the discount I saved almost $14.00. Oh and did I mention they do dog grooming too? I will definitely be returning. read more

This is a great place for Dog Grooming because they great Dogs with kindness, and are caring! They helped me fit Harnesses on our Bassets too. We also enjoyed seeing the Groomer hoist our Dog a little above the Grooming Table, while trimming their nails. Nice, friendly Girls there that day. read more

We are so glad we found this store. Such an awesome small business. We come in regularly for treats and pickup Nutrisource grain free (we love that they carry it!). Thank you for always being so great and friendly. There is a points system which is also a great incentive to pick up food here! read more

We really appreciated the customer service. The staff was genuinely interested and helpful! Sadly we chose the wrong size hiking pack for our dog but we were pleased to return it without any hassle. We will certainly be back. Thanks for it all read more

Took my mom's poodle here for the first time yesterday! First off I must say how nice everyone is, as soon as I walked in I was greeted with a smile! For this being a new place for both me and Belle I felt comfortable as soon as I got there. Belle's hair was a mess but Katie was still able to do a great job with her. I was also impressed it took just under 3 hours. The one other place I've been to everyone drops off dogs at the same time so you never know if it will take 3 hrs or 6. I like how your appt time is just for you! I'm hoping once my mom gets back from vacation she will enjoy Belle's hair cut and continue to get her groomed here! Also hoping for more cute cuts! I'm attaching before and after pictures, the after pic isn't great but shows how nice her face looks!!! read more

I always go here for my high quality dog food in Chico! They carry the best brands, I buy both Zigniture Duck and the Acana freshwater fish . Both great for my French Bulldogs ! The staff is always extremely helpful read more

Lori is amazing!! She has a special talent when it comes to working with animals. She was the first person to groom my toy poodle Sasha. I love how sweet she is with her. Unfortunately Lori moved away for a while and I ended up taking Sasha to several different groomers in town. I had some okay experiences and some terrible ones. Lori has a standard poodle for a pet and she hands down the best poodle goomer in Chico!!! She is an artist and my Sasha is at ease when she's there. Trail Blazers is a really cool store with high quality dog food, special treats, friendly staff and a great location thats easy to find with lots of parking. read more

Our new puppy Toby was in desperate need of a bath & haircut... So we called Trail Blazer. The staff was friendly, helpful, and very professional. A few days later Toby was pampered at the Trail Blazer Puppy Spa. The groomer was excellent, she helped us decide on the right cut & made him look adorable. We will recommend Trail Blazer to all our friends & family! read more

TrailBlazer Pet Supply - Toby's First Haircut! - Pet Stores Near Me - Chico, California

I totally thought I had already written a review for Trailblazer, but I guess not... so here goes! Perhaps it is the fact that I'm greeted by the loving tail wag of the ever so gorgeous Izzy every time I walk through Trailblazer's doors, or maybe it is just the feeling of warm welcome energy that all of the people at Trailblazer exude, but I absolutely LOVE this place. The people at Trailblazer care about you and your pet and they know their stuff. I'm pretty knowledgeable about pet food and toys and different ways to solve problems with my pets behavior, but when I find myself stumped I go to Trailblazer for a little guidance. If they don't have something they go above and beyond all expectations to get whatever it is that I want... I ran all over town the week before Thanksgiving looking for a raw bone (beef femur) for my pups Thanksgiving day feast and no one seemed to have them, they didn't either but instead of giving me a half hearted "sorry" and sending me on my way they took my name and number and offered to find out if they could get some in for me. A few days later I actually got a call (love the follow through, many businesses will say they will call you back, but very few actually do) letting me know they had what I needed. =) I also love that they are actively involved in the community- this is a business that truly loves their clientele and works VERY hard to keep them happy and well informed. They do kitten adoptions on the weekend, obedience training, workshops on different pet related topics etc. etc. etc. Props to Trailblazer... You are an amazing, well run, and community minded business with great employees and awesome products. read more

Super friendly staff and great grooming services as well. They do nail clipping, etc and everyone is so nice and helpful. They have a wonderful variety of excellent, high-quality, and organic dog and cat food both wet and dry. They also have some toys, treats, including gourmet cookies for your animals and collars, leashes etc. The only downside is that they don't carry Greenies (dental treats) for dogs but they do for cats. The prices are very reasonable, much more so then Petco! I'm a fan! read more

This is the best place to take your dogs for grooming, not only are they educated in nutrition and diet but the groomers are gentle and accommodating. I stopped going to the corporate stores as soon as I found trailblazers!!! They are so friendly so nice and really just want your pet to feel comfortable. I'd give a 10 star review if I could. my dog Hydro, has hip dysplasia and arthritis and a blown ACL-surgery is not an option at this point and they allowed me to hold him during his nail trim I am super appreciative of their service 10 stars!!!! read more

This place is awesome! Everyone here is very knowledgeable and friendly, it's refreshing! I stopped in one day since I was at a neighboring store. I ended up finding some spray that was supposed to to stop dogs from chewing. This was perfect since my roommates beast had taken a liking to the coffee table. And the bar stools, and shoes, and power cords. The girl behind the counter said it was pretty effective since dogs usually stay away from it's citrus scent. So I took it home and tried it out. Turns out the dumb dog LOVED the taste of the spray. Of course. So I took it back to the store and the gentleman now working let me return it even though I had used some of it. He then gave me some recommendations on other things I could try out-lemon oil was the ultimate winner. I stopped in not long after to ask about some recommendations about dog food. My roommie's dog would get breakouts sometimes and we couldn't nail down the source in the foods she was eating. He told me a brand to try out and what ones to avoid (the main one she was eating of course). My roommate ended up getting said brand and his beast is one happy breakout-free pup. Stop in and make your pets life better!!! read more

TrailBlazer is my go to pet supply store! When my husband and I got our pup and we're trying to decide what type of food to feed her, the staff at the store were beyond helpful and explained some of the many factors to consider. They even offered us free samples, which helped us determine what food our dog liked the most. We also took our pup to the dog obedience classes that TrailBlazer and Butte Humane Society hosted last year and loved them. I am VERY glad to see that Trailblazer is continuing to offer these classes and is also offering the second level. We plan to sign our pup up for the next session of classes. Every time my husband and I enter the store, we are greeted by friendly staff and a friendly dog or two. Our dog is a little skittish when first meeting other dogs, so we like to bring her along for socialization. The dogs in the store are always very friendly and gentle with our scaredy-pup and we appreciate this. We love this store and go here for all our pet needs!! Thanks for everything! read more

I'm very disappointed in this place I've gone here for a while and for my dogs grooming my two shih tzus this last time I took them I took them in at 10am an appointment time, they told me that they I needed to pick them up no later than 1:30 they would be ready by 1:30 so I call it one cuz I live out of town to pick them up and they said oh no they're not going to be ready by 1:30 and I said well I have an appointment at 3 out of town so I can't go to Chico and then back to Willows in time to pick them up anytime after I have to pick him up at 4 and they said well you can pick him up now and they won't be done or you can be charged a kennel fee so they weren't done by 1:30 however they charged me the kennel fee they only did half the job they didn't cut hair on the dogs faces I would not recommend this place at all read more

I needed a better dry food for my 5 month old kitten and was looking for a good place in Chico. This place is easily located and the people there were very nice and helpful. The food they recommended was a reasonable price as well. My cat is happy with it, too. They also have cat toys, and ...dog food and toys for all those dog owners, as well as grooming. Much rather go here than Petco. I will be returning. read more

Not only the best pet store in Chico, but the best pet store I have ever been to. Our dog has severe food allergies, which has been a challenge to get under control. After going on a limited protein diet with our vet, we were faced with the challenge of integrating new proteins back into our dog's diet. The staff at Trailblazer are incredibly knowledgeable with really impressive nutrition distinctions and advice. They helped us so much, and I'm happy to say our dog is healthy, happy, and enjoying his balanced diet. I also really like the product selection offered. All the food choices are natural and I feel like most anything I'd buy there is a great choice. There's also a nice selection of toys, collars, and treats. The customer service is really top notch. After figuring out the right products for our dog, the staff has kept those items in stock and has placed special orders for me when needed, and followed up with me via a friendly phone call when those items were in. Love this place! read more

Mabel has been letting us clip her nails for a year. She all of the sudden decided she hated it and started kicking, etc. It was really stressful for her (and us) so we took her to Trail Blazer with our fingers crossed. The ladies there were really nice, gave her treats, and she was an angel. Having her up on the table worked like a charm. She didn't fight at all and they were able to get them nice and short without quicking her. We will be back for sure. Thank you! read more

Super helpful, friendly staff. Brought my cat in and she loved it. She's generally really nervous but was surprisingly comfortable inside the store and with the staff. read more

Take my girl to get her nails trimmed here. They are amazing and definitely trustworthy. Great snack and food selection (expensive but no junk). Thanks for taking care of my baby! And thanks PetSmart for being so bad that led me to find TrailBlazer! read more

I just moved into the area and my dog Princie needed a cut before I took him on the airport to visit back home. I had a early appointment and the groomers were there nice and early. The staff was very nice and took care of Princie like if he was their dog. He was very calm when picking him up, not frantic like if he was dying to go home. (That's always a good sign!) I will be bringing him here all the time! read more

I am a groomer from Colorado and one of my clients recently moved to Chico and was in search of a new groomer. Allison went out of her way to find me on Facebook and message me to find out what kind of haircuts I'd done in the past so she could make Ana'ali the Goldendoodle look her best! She was so kind and thoughtful in all of her messages to me and even kept me updated on the groom which I couldn't have been more happy about since this was a dear client of mine. My client could not have found a more caring groomer and I would recommend Allison to everyone if I could! She really went above and beyond and we need more people like her in this world! read more

Both the women who were working when I came in were awesome. It was my puppy's first time going to the groomer and she was definitely not happy about it. She through a fit, but the groomers were super nice about it and I felt like they did everything they could to make my puppy comfortable. I also felt like they were reasonably priced. I got the salt scrub and conditioning and it wasn't that much extra, it was definitely worth it though. All and all, I had a great experience and I would definitely recommend them :) read more

Lori was fantastic with my Ollie! She was gentle even when Ollie was being stubborn., He loves his new doo and was struting his stuff in Bille Park. Definitely love her passion and commitment to her craft. She really cares and I have a new comfortable place for all my pet needs. Thank you! read more

Hannah deserves five stars for customer service and grooming. Hannah is not the problem. The last time I took my dog in for grooming (not counting today) I always look for new, safe, long-lasting treats for my 21 pound terrier. The fellow behind the counter recommended the $14 Icelandic sheep horn. I explained to him that my dog can devour a 9" bully stick in 45 minutes and I'm not interested in repeating that. He specifically told me that the horn I was considering took his 80 pound golden lab two weeks to finish off that horn. I totally believed him and bought one, brought it home, and gave it to my pup. Within five minutes he'd chewed off and swallowed three inches of that horn. I became very concerned and took it away. Today at my grooming appointment I brought in the barely chewed horn, and very long story short... I was told their policy is to not give refunds or credit for toys WTH? I was offered 20% off my next chew toy. So disgusting! I certainly didn't see, nor was I directed to this mysterious, unknown policy. This is a perfect Judge Judy civil court episode! BTW, I left the horn at the business. Wanna bet they try selling it again? Worst customer service, ever!! read more

We've tried everything to trim our dog's nails. He's extremely fussy and scared to death of the dreaded clipper or dremel. We took him to our vet and the tech there thought next time our dog needed to be sedated to trim his nails. We then heard trailblazer was good at trimming nails so decided to try them out. Wish we caught their names, but the two women who trimmed his nails did an amazing job!!! They didn't seem deterred by our dog's fussiness. They were very experienced and professional (and said our dog didn't need any sedation!). Definitely coming back here. If your dog is a drama queen like ours, try them out! Helps to call ahead before you go. read more
