“We made the trip down from Massachusetts to visit The Fish Hut, and we’re so glad we did! The moment we walked in, we were greeted by a knowledgeable and enthusiastic team who clearly care about both their fish and their customers.
The selection of African cichlids was incredible — easily the biggest and most impressive variety we’ve come across. Whether you’re just starting out or already experienced in the hobby, this place has something for everyone.
A huge thank you to JR, Endrit, and Rich for taking the time to answer all of our questions and helping us pick the perfect fish for our tank. They were patient, professional, and genuinely excited to help us build something great.
If you're into freshwater fish, especially cichlids, The Fish Hut is absolutely worth the trip!”
“I had such a wonderful experience at Pet Supplies Plus in Garwood, and I want to give a special shout-out to Ray, who went above and beyond to help me when I came in worried about my Frenchie’s ongoing gastrointestinal issues.
Ray spent over 10 minutes talking with me, not just tossing out generic suggestions, but really asking thoughtful questions about my dog’s symptoms and history. He genuinely listened, clearly cared, and offered such well-informed advice that I felt completely confident in the product he recommended. You can tell he has a real wealth of knowledge and experience when it comes to pet health, and I’m so grateful for his help.
It’s rare to find customer service like this anywhere these days, let alone from someone who’s not just helpful but truly passionate about animals. I left the store feeling reassured, supported, and hopeful… and that means everything when you’re trying to care for a beloved pet.
Thank you, Ray, and thank you Pet Supplies Plus Garwood! You’ve got a customer for life.”

“Shake a Paw has been so helpful with our family finding the perfect puppy to add to our family. The staff have been extremely friendly. Christine, in the Union location, has gone above and beyond to ensure that we have a great experience from start to finish. We had such an easy first experience that we got a second puppy from Shake a Paw. I would highly recommend Shake a Paw. Thank you for your help in bringing two new little ones to our family.”

“I had an absolutely wonderful experience with Kloe's Kittens! She was incredibly detailed and clear in all of her communications from day one. We received weekly photos of our kitten and she always took the time to answer every question we had. She kept us informed at every step of the process, which made the entire experience smooth and stress-free. Now that our kitten (now cat) is home, we couldn’t be happier. He is amazing—healthy, sweet, and exactly what we hoped for. I am so impressed with the level of care, transparency, and professionalism we received. Highly recommend!”
“Home Towne WC is our go-to for our dog food, treats, toys and knowledgable advice for our pups. Having just rescued a new little guy (chihuahua mix), it's always nice to get suggestions for treats we can try with him. Daniela and Alicia are so friendly and we are always greeted with a smile and friendly welcome.
Thank you!”
“We found Oh My Dog through a recommendation, and from the very first contact, we were welcomed with so much care, attention, and professionalism. We were looking for our first Australian Shepherd puppy and couldn’t have found a better place!
Maya arrived healthy, beautiful, and very well cared for. It’s clear that she was raised with a lot of love and responsibility. We received all the guidance about vaccinations, feeding, and adaptation with patience and clarity and the post-sale support has been outstanding.
It’s so much more than just a pet shop it’s a place where animals are treated with the love and respect they truly deserve. Today, Maya is part of our family, and we’re incredibly grateful for all the care and trust.
I wholeheartedly recommend Oh My Dog to anyone looking for a healthy puppy and a transparent, welcoming experience. Thank you, Marcus, for helping us find the greatest four legged love of our lives! ??”
“My baby Max was groomed here today amazing work excellent service staff is so friendly helpful & compassionate we will be using Bullyzone for years to come ?? Max came home and went straight to sleep he was relaxed & feeling great”
“My parakeets were able to get their wings clipped here. The people at the store are the kindest ever!!!! I’m a new owner so they helped me learn a lot about my birds. I can’t recommend this place enough!!! I absolutely will be going back!!!!”
“This pet store surpasses any big box store I've visited. They offer nearly everything for your furry friends, with a focus on dogs and cats. From toys to treats and natural medicines, they have it all. The customer service was exceptional, providing insightful and helpful assistance. They truly cared about finding the right options for our chihuahuas, making us feel valued and attended to. Highly recommended for all dog and cat owners.”

“Spoke to the owners of this establishment and we spoke about me acquiring an Akita!!! I think we can develop the right meal plan!!! No Corn, No Soy, No Wheat in my dogs food!! Maybe Chicken Paws And Livers with Pumpkin”
“We couldn’t be happier with Dogue Grooming! They’re friendly, professional, and always go above and beyond to accommodate their clients. We have a 2-year-old, 60-pound Labradoodle who’s full of energy and not the easiest to groom, but they always do a fantastic job. He comes out looking great and feeling happy—and so do we! If you’re looking for an amazing grooming salon in town, I highly recommend them.”

“They are so helpful here, will definitely be coming again soon. Quality products, very knowledgeable and a very homey local pet shop.I purchased two collars. The quality is amazing. The prices are not bad They have collars for every budget. Excellent quality.”
“Great store, the real store manager Gina and her Assistant Stephanie are so helpful. The supervisors Jay and Britney are very nice and courteous too. Will be back for this team”
“I’ve been here a couple times after having so many bad experiences with other salons and they’re truly the best. They do the cutest cut on my dog Stella every time and staff is so friendly and helpful!! They definitely don’t overcharge as well and truly do what’s best in the price range they give you which is really nice. I have a small dog and I was charged almost $200 last minute by another groomer in the same town for shaving her but after that I tried this salon and it’s been my go-to ever since. Def give this one a try if you’re struggling finding a groomer! Hoping this review helps someone else like me find a good place their little furry child ??”
“We went there because we wanted to adopt a guinea pig. The lady was super friendly, nice and gave us a bunch of information, the store looks clean,nice and organized. The only thing is that they never called us for the adoption, I thought they were gonna call in 3 days then my husband called for an update and they say up to 2 weeks and they never did,but it's ok.”
“The owners are the best as well as their staff. They make my daughter and I, along with my daughter’s cat who visits often, feel like family. The store has everything you need along with personal service. You couldn’t find a better place to shop for your furry family members.”

“This place is brilliant. I have been coming here for 11 years with my pup, even though I don't live in NJ anymore. He's so happy here and loves to stay so much that he doesn't even look back at me when he goes off to play. I never worry about him while I'm away as I suspect he has a better time on vacay at preferred pet care than I do on my vacay. ?♥️”
“Love the set up in the store...organized and items within reach.
My Granddog just loves the variety of dog treats...
He loves the veggie sticks...as well as the assorted colorful treats that mimic human cookies.
My Granddog also likes the clothing for all seasons...buffer vests, sweaters for fall and winter. Vibrant shirts for Summer. He wore a few during our visit to Cape Cod and Martha's vineyard”
“Ignore any bad reviews for this place, they are great. I came across this pet shop randomly and was just looking around. I instantly fell in love with one of the dogs I saw. After playing with her for a while me and my boyfriend knew we could not leave without her. The staff were so kind and helpful and I couldn’t be happier. Thank you for helping me find my new best friend.”
“Hajj and Georgina simply the best . It's hard to find pleasant retail sales people these days . They went above and beyond for me and for that they deserve 5 stars”
“I took my two dogs, and finally, they came out looking the way I wanted them to look. I'm so happy with the service. Wish I could have seen my receipt before so I could have tipped more.”
“My favorite part of this store are the services provided. I love using the self washing station. I also get my dogs nails done here. I'm so grateful they offer an appointment for a nails only service. We go monthly. Shannon and Pat have been wonderful with my puppy.”
“I've been going to this store since I was 14 years old( now in my 60s).Always enjoy their varieties in birds, fish, etc, and chatting with Mr. Albert! ❤️”
“The store manager is amazing extremely friendly. The staffed helped me and I walked out not feeling like a number but family. That was probably the best experience I had at a Petco especially when it came to the engagement with my fur baby and the staff. I wanted to spend and I felt valued.”
