I move around a lot, and when I first got to town I was lucky enough to meet a friend at the dog part who recommended Roo's. Knowledgeable staff / ownership, a clean and easy to use full-service self-wash station ($12 at the time I write this), and a friendly environment. My chocolate lab (Lou) is overly excited every time we arrive, and is welcomed with love from the employees, the kitten on the front desk, and sometimes the pup behind the desk. If you haven't checked them out yet, I hope you do soon! Pro Tip: they are closed on Wednesdays, and the self-wash station closes an hour before closing!
Roo's is my go-to for pet food (Lou is on Blackwood, and they have specifically selected a variety of safe and reputable brands - kibble and raw), raw femur bones, and treats (local options available). Pretty much a one-stop shop; they supply a solid selection of durable toys, chews, leashes and collars (martingales; though no harnesses here), supplements, name tags, and more (all of which I have purchased at one point).
Note: If you are used to bargain shopping for your dog, be prepared to pay a little more than you may be used to, but with greater value and with supporting a local business.
They offer curbside pick-up and I believe delivery (I have yet to use these features)!
To boot, they are the sister store to PineAcre Kennel, a fun and well kept pet day care and boarding facility off 400th and Wheeling. Lou is an on-and-off regular for day-care, and has boarded there a number of times in the last 8 months. Quite frankly, it's a little sad how happy she is when we pull in! ;) There are economical boarding options (I believe you can do a no frill option for about/under $20), and/or you can choose add-ons such as 1:1 play time, evening PB kong, day-care, etc.
I hope you...
Read moreRoo's supplies customers with a plethora of of fresh, top notch products that are bound to show you a new side of your pet you've never seen! The improvement you see in your pets when they are on quality food and treats is absoloutly astonishing. It really goes to show how quality products make your pets feel so good. My cats switched to raw/freeze dried raw around last October and they are on Ultra Oil as well. They have so much more energy, soft fur, great skin health, and they love feeding time! My roommate started feeding their pup raw food. He would turn his nose up to most food and wouldn't eat, but with raw food he absoloutly demolished his servings and looks forward to meal time! Yes, it is pricier than big box pet stores but the quality of the products and how the products make your pets feel make the price...
Read moreThis place will always be the single pet supply store that I recommend to everyone with pets. They are extremely educated on pet care and health, all of their products are checked for sources before they are put on the shelves so you know everything you are buying is safe for your pet.
My family actually discovered this place for their self wash station when our dog had skin issues we couldn't solve for years, they were able to suggest food and diet changes that changed his life. His hair has grown back and he hasn't had itchy, flaky, or stabbed over skin since. He's even a healthier weight which has made him happier and he's had so much more energy.
I'd definitely recommend this store to everyone considering it, they work with you to ensure your pets are...
