“When walking in the store is a very kind team!
They are hery helpful and knowledgeable when asked questions.
The place has a great selection of food and toys and many pet supplies.
The also, offer a dog bath area that is very comfortable for washing the little friendly dogs.”
“Nice little neighborhood pet supply shop. We get crickets and other feeders for our reptile here. I was glad to find out they offer reptile boarding, as well. Staff are pleasant and friendly.”
“Great service, great selection of products. Prices for what I get (dog food) is cheaper than brand pet stores or online - a bonus.
When possible we should all support locally-owned businesses.”
“Venessa did a wonderful job with grooming Gizmo. Very confident in her skills yet very concerning with my dog issues. Especially with trimming my dogs nails and constant ear infections.”
“Cashy’s Playpen is simply the best. We stop in every time we visit Montecito for the most high-end selections of toys, leashes, beds, nibbles, and so much more. It is like a luxury boutique for dogs, offering unique, high-quality, and adorable items that we literally cannot find anywhere else. Our dogs now only have Cashy’s items (stuffed toys, leashes/collars/tags are favorites) because we have become accustomed to the very best in doggy accoutrements! From the moment we walk into Cashy’s and are greeted by adorable Cashy himself, inviting us to play “tug” with him and his beach ball, and the friendly and very knowledgeable proprietress Caroline, we feel we’ve walked into a delightful doggy playland and have a hard time not scooping up most everything in sight. I can’t recommend Cashy‘s Playpen more highly. Do visit! I promise your dogs will thank you for it!”
“I love this place. Everything you need for a do-it-yourself doggy bath is at your fingertips. The basins are large and at a comfortable level. There are several basins so there's rarely a wait. They sell some great pet products, too.”
“as of July 3 (2025) temporary location is 1924 Cliff Dr. by the old Chase Bank..
A family owned pet store, not a big box chain. Has the small hometown feeling of a pet store that knows pets and cares about your pets. Has a great selection of traditional dog and cat products from food, toys, etc., has a selection of freshwater fish as well with nice clean tanks. They carry feeder insects for your reptiles as well. Pretty much have everything that you need feed and care for your pet. A great pet store near Cliff Drive in santa barbara.”
“To the people leaving biased and negative reviews because of Bruce’s death and the pursuit of justice: this is not the way to make a difference. Leaving a bad review will not change the situation; it only affects how others perceive you and your intentions.
If someone is reading these comments and considering leaving a negative review, remember that your words reflect on you. Future customers will see these reviews and may view them as an act of anger or retaliation rather than a fair reflection of the place itself.”

“Brought my cat in and he was adored. Rightfully so he is my Mr. Princess after all. Came for wet and dry food and was almost overwhelmed with the amount of choices there were. So many options I’ve never seen before. And the staff was friendly and chatty (in a good way). Currently waiting for the store to open now to go back in to get some catnip for Mr. Princess aka Gizmo(nster) aka Gizmo”
“Very kind and caring staff. Very patient, knowledgeable and helpful. My cat was hesitant to get out of his pet carrier but with some gentle coaxing the got him out and made him comfortable and took care of his vaccinations quickly and painlessly and gave us a great combo recommendation for my cat’s flea/heartworm/tick/earmite prescription medication supply. We thank them for their outstanding service”
“had such a great experience at Smart & Final today, I honestly left smiling. Ayanna deserves a special shout-out—she was incredibly helpful and kind (and even helped me with my very heavy cat litter, which I truly appreciated!).
Everyone in the store today was fantastic. One of the women working there told me about a special if I signed up on the app, and because of her tip I ended up getting a $12 credit for my next visit—such a nice surprise and I’m so glad she mentioned it.
The whole store had this genuinely positive energy. I got help right away, didn’t have to wait long, and people were actually pleasant and engaged. I even got a great recommendation for cat food for my finicky older cat from another clerk—so helpful.
It honestly made me wonder if the store is under new management because the customer service today was next level. Super grateful… and what a great city we live in. I’ll absolutely be back!”
“I had been wanting to visit a cat lounge for a while, and this was such a relaxing stop in downtown Santa Barbara. The space is home to foster cats, and you can spend time sitting with them, petting them, or just watching them play.
It was calm, well maintained, and a fun break from walking around State Street. If you’re a cat lover—or just want a quiet hour in your day—it’s worth stopping by. Bonus: every visit helps support cats waiting for their forever homes.”
