Westside Farm & Feed
817 Swift Street, Santa CruzI stopped in and they were just closing. Actually, they were already closed and the woman who was working there was so nice. She asked me what I needed. I told her that I was traveling and I was going to grab a toy for my dog. She said register was closed so she couldn’t really bring anything up, but she said I have something I can give you and she gave me a bag of treats for my dog. They are so kind and I would totally support this business. The store has a huge selection of things that I could see. If I come back to Santa Cruz. I will definitely stop in there.

Westside Animal Hospital
411 Laurel Street, Santa CruzI've been a client here for 4+ years, and what keeps me coming back is that they never over-treat or make you feel bad as a pet owner — they work with you in partnership to figure out the best goals and decisions for your pet's care and treatments. Piper's an 84-pound lab/German shepherd mix who isn't exactly a fan of vet visits, but this team handles her with grace every time. They went out of their way to work around my schedule to get her appointment set up, and the care she got once we were there was excellent. Really appreciate it — highly recommend. Thank you Westside Animal Team!

Their front office staff is generous and always looking to help any way that they can. They have overnighted things for me to get them to us as soon as possible.

Pacific and Santa Cruz Veterinary Specialists
2585 Soquel Drive, Santa CruzAbout 9 months ago we found out our sweet dog Grey had cancer. We struggled for a long time to find an oncologist that we trusted and seemed to care about Grey’s wellbeing just as much as we did. We are so grateful that we found Dr. Stone at Santa Cruz. He provided the best care for Grey, consulted with us numerous times, adjusted treatments to our boy’s emotional needs, and the restrictions of us living more than 50 miles away from the clinic. He was always very patient, kind, and thoughtful. Thank you Dr. Stone for all your support these last months! Unfortunately, we had to say goodbye to Grey yesterday, and Drs. Kelly and Dunn took excellent care of Grey and ensured he felt comfortable and loved in every moment. We are so grateful to all the staff for all the love and care they put into their work! Thank you Pacific Vet & Santa Cruz. If you are looking for a trustworthy place to bring your pet, Pac Vet is a wonderful option.

Woof work dog training
2966 El Rancho Drive, Santa CruzI can't say enough good things about our experience with Emily! We recently rescued a two-year-old pup with some reactivity and separation anxiety. From day one, Emily has been an absolute game-changer for both our dog and us. She took the time to truly understand his behavior and tailor a plan for him. We've done both private training and boarding with her, and every time our dog comes back calmer, more confident, and better equipped to handle the world. The boarding experience is amazing--knowing he's not only cared for but also actively learning and thriving while we're away gives us total peace of mind. Her communication is fantastic, she sends updates, and we always feel like our dog is in the best hands. If you're dealing with a reactive dog or just want a trainer who really knows what they're doing and truly cares, this is the place. We're so grateful we found her!

The Velvet Coat
7 Lyle Way, Santa CruzWe've been taking our beloved French Bulldog, Ricky Bobby, to Shannon at The Velvet Coat for about a year now. He goes a couple days a week to daycare. We drop him off in the morning and pick him up in the afternoon. We had a couple timing requests and Shannon was able to accommodate us. Ricky Bobby LOVES going to daycare! He's happy when we drop him off and he's happy when we pick him up. Due to being a Frenchie, he needs a little extra care. He likes to play until he drops! And that isn't always the best for him. We know that Shannon calms him down when it is needed, and we really appreciate that! For boarding we typically try to leave him with a family member. When we're unable to do that, the only other call is The Velvet Coat. We know that he is going to be safe and well cared for and completely loved. That means everything when you're on vacation! I can actually relax knowing my precious doggy is well taken care of.

Shanty Shack Brewing
138 Fern Street, Santa CruzShanty Shack Brewing has the friendly, unpretentious character that makes an independent brewery worth seeking out. I enjoyed the relaxed Santa Cruz atmosphere and the chance to explore a rotating selection of locally brewed beer in a casual taproom setting. It feels community-minded rather than overly polished, which is a big part of the appeal. This is a great stop for slowing down, trying something new, and spending time with friends. I would happily come back on another Santa Cruz visit.

Furball Critters
VISIT BY APPOINTMENT!, 145 Thin Edge Rd, Santa CruzWe got two Campbell dwarf hamsters for our nieces and nephews. We looked at 3 different pet stores before this and all bit the employees, were generally not social, or not easy to handle for kids. These were absolutely night and day. The nicest hamsters we’d ever seen. The kids adore them. They are so social with little break in time. No biting, and the cutest ones of hundreds that we saw, to boot ! Don’t buy from pet stores / mills ! Buy here !

Native Animal Rescue
1855 17th Avenue, Santa CruzThey are always kind, compassionate, and incredibly helpful whenever I find a wild animal in need of care. Their dedication to wildlife and willingness to assist makes a real difference, and I truly appreciate the support they provide to both the animals and the community. As I understand it, they are often short-staffed, so it's best to bring an animal directly to them if you're able, as they may not always have staff available for pickups.
