Pet Market — Local services in San Diego

I don’t usually like over-appraising shops but they really clean the store or are constantly cleaning it, the prices or average but much rather pay a little more to support local pet store then buying it in a Walmart. Sometimes the workers might be shy but if gone up to and asked questions they are really friendly and helpful and if they don’t know something they are likely to look it up for you, if there’s something you are looking for and they don’t have they special order it just for you. Good variety of random pets nice to just stroll and look around. Every time I've gone the the food and water dish have been filled to the rim. They have return policies that if your dog doesn’t like their food but theres more then 2/3 of the food in the bag or something like that you can trade if for another for equal value. Many things can be returned for store credit only but you have to ask for the return policy and keep receipt which makes sense. Overall good small pet store they usually have the same like 5 people there so if a regular they recognize you and try to help with all...

I have not visited here in over a decade, but I would like say, as a kid, my brothers and I used to love wandering this pet shop while our mom would get her hair done at the Fantastic Sams that used to be there. This shop is a very nostalgic memory to me.

In June 2003, my mom bought me a small kitten from this shop who may have been a bit too young to wean at the time. She was a little gray one with black stripes, and was kept in a kennel with her littermates.

I'm happy to report that 14 years later, this very kitten is now a very lively senior cat, who has traveled many miles with us from home to home, state to state, and I still think about Pet Market from time to time.

I just want to thank this shop for one of my bestest childhood friends, and hope that the other people who adopted my cat's siblings have had just as much...

Complete animal neglect!!! I went to just browse the store today and I really wish I was able to get pictures because of how shocked I was. They had guinea pigs in wired rusty cages with the only thing to support their feet were cutting boards that didn’t even cover the full cage. All of the guinea pigs were in their huts which was the only part of the cage that had the cutting boards to protect their feet. It’s completely wrong and sick to me see animals in such a neglectful environment and nothing is being done to fix it. These poor babies can get uri, bumblefoot, teeth problems and it seems like the only thing the pet store cares about is the money they can...
