“Love the selection and range of healthy dog treats at Dogma. The staff at the bakery are so nice and helpful, even going the extra mile of quickly cutting up some meat treats for me when I was in a rush for a dog training appointment. Dogma is the perfect neighborhood shop for my pup. So happy to continue supporting this small business!”
“After a long day of Nasty attitudes at every pet appointment of the day I decided to get my pup a bone. When I tell you Pets Are Home was the Rainbow at the end of a storm. From the cleanliness to the staff being so helpful there’s absolutely nothing to complain about, let’s not forget the pricing being very reasonable. As I’ve gone other places and asked for help with certain things they’ve rudely told me to Google; not here though.
The owner was so kind to both me and my pup And helpful with all questions and also gave suggestions and gifted a few sample products. Thank you guys keep up the great work! Small business big heart!”
“Passionately Pets provided excellent walking services on our recent vacation. Our sitter, Jeff, was courteous and seemed confident in his ability to handle our sometimes obstreperous 95 lbs German Shepherd. Unlike other walking services we have used, Jeff actually walked our dog for most of the 30 minute visit. Would definitely recommend.”
“Immaculately clean and really nice set ups for betta fish. The shop dog Mellow was a very good girl! 4 stars only because it is very small and selection is quite limited. I imagine they rotate stock quite often. I’ll be back to check out what’s new soon!”
“We trained our 1.5 year old pup, Toulouse, via one on one lessons for formal on leash obedience and later off leash training course. His trainer, Saul, was amazing and taught us how to communicate with our pup in a fair and effective manner.When we first brought Toulouse to OTSFD, he had some impulsive tendencies and a strong desire to say hi and play with every dog he encountered. His reactive behavior made it challenging to enjoy walks or take him to public places. Saul was very knowledgeable and tailored a combination of the four quadrants of operant conditioning to modify Toulouse’s behavior. The transformation we have witnessed is truly remarkable. I can now confidently take Toulouse everywhere, knowing that he will be a well-behaved and obedient companion.”
“Choosing the right groomer for your pet is key the last groomer I had was professional. I told her about my dogs anxiety she was gentle and I felt confident to book her again. I don’t know how to spell her name it begins with a Q . My puppy is only a year old and his energy is hyper +”
“I can't say enough great things about this local, women-owned pharmacy! From the moment you walk in, you're greeted with warmth and personalized service that you just can't find at the big chain stores. The staff is knowledgeable, friendly, and always goes above and beyond to make sure all my questions are answered. It’s so refreshing to support a local business where I truly feel like a valued customer. If you're looking for a pharmacy that offers exceptional service with a personal touch, I highly recommend this place!"”
“Aquatic paws is amazing. I truly appreciated Lisa and her team for the care they gave for my senior dog. He had an amazing time swimming. Everyone was so accommodating and helpful. If I could give ten stars I would.”
“I just picked up my little girl from Elysiem. Yvette did a fantastic job! She gave my Phoebe a summer trim and left her looking like a little stuffed animal. She looks ADORABLE!!! I love the attention, gentleness and FANTASTIC job. I highly recommend.”
“This place has a big selection of chews that are not available anywhere else. My dog loves them! We live an hour away now, but still go back every once in a while to stock up”

“Got my water quality checked within minutes. I was assisted by Sam. as I am setting up my new fish tank, Sam gave me so much of useful information in detail. Really appreciate his assistance. Nice store!”
“Andrea is great. She does an amazing grooming job, the cut is very symmetrical, nails and ears are well trimmed. I also like the fact that the grooming space is open so if you ever need to wait, you can take a peek at your dog and it also builds a transparent environment. I am glad we found this place!”
“After many years of purchasing pet products online from big box stores, I am THRILLED to have discovered PetMAC. I'm especially happy to be supporting a local, women-owned business right here in DC that provides quality, personal customer care! Whatever need you have for your pet, Janice and her team are there to help you through your choice of food, toys and treats. PetMAC also hosts regular feline adoptions. What a treasure.

“It's a cute little boutique with fun stuff! The owner is lovely and super friendly. My husband and I joke with our bichon that he keeps failing his obedience class, and I found this patch for him!! I can't wait to bring my fur babies with me and shop!”
“Groomed my huskies and did a fantastic job on dogs who don't like being wet. Grooming was quick and the pups were happy. Grabbed some healthy baked treats to reward the dogs. They approved!”
“In addition to the store being nice, we really appreciated the trainer, Gina. We have a very anxious pup and she was so understanding and accommodating, working to make sure he (and we) felt comfortable with everything. While his anxiety prevented us from taking additional classes, we would recommend Gina and Petco to anyone looking for puppy training!”
“I'm not sure how it happened, but I've become a bird enthusiast. The Backyard Bird Feeder has a wide selection of feeders, seeds, suet cakes, and accessories to encourage my hobby. The staff are all friendly and helpful as well as knowledgeable. Whether you are encouraging birds or discouraging squirrels or the opposite, they've got a product for you.”

“Unique shop that caters to just selling items to feed birds. Suet, bird houses, feeders, etc. They are all here. Plenty of feed as well. Customer service was helpful and informative. We bought a suet feeder and a few blocks. Took about 4 days, but now we have a regular gathering in the morning (no squirrels).”
“This is a great little place for pet owners. Definitely on the smaller side but they pack a whole lot into the space. The toy selection is great, everyone working is very helpful, you can pretty much find anything you would need. Also love supporting smaller, local places when we visit from out of town. If I lived here I’d frequent this place for sure.”
“Wonderful little pet shop with warm, welcoming faces to match. I've been bringing my inherited Boxer boy in with me to help his anxiety and now he loves taking trips to Westwood with me to see friends for pets and treats :)”
“Super cute and friendly place! Lots of good food options. I just moved into the area and very pleased to find familiar healthy pet food options :) I didn't find Just Food for Dogs and the Polkadog chicken strips though. My pups go crazy for those. Haven't tried the grooming here so this is just about the food and store.”
“A wonderful store that features some unusual and great products! Owner is extremely knowledgeable and staff is so helpful and friendly. The entire shop feels like a magical woodland experience! You will see unusual items including Wind River Chimes produced right here in Manassas VA that are made of exceptional quality. I’ve purchased many things for gifts that have always been a big hit. You will find the best feeders, seed, garden flags, books, music, and more. Simply the best experience and products!”

“I brought my 12 year old Cockapoo to be groomed here - we had an excellent experience. He has anxiety and can be very difficult with hair cuts. Nicole was his groomer, she was patient with him and took the time he needed to have a great haircut. So happy to have found Elysiem.”
“Petsmart in Tysons Corner, Va. is a pet store where I've been able to find all the pet products I need. The products are extremely well organized, and signs on each row in the store make it easy to find what I need. The personnel are friendly and ready to help customers who want to find a product.”
“My dog loves going to day care at Whole Dogz. The cameras let you see how much fun your pup is having. The employees are very loving, they pet and snuggle your dog while they play.”
“So I don't know where to begin. Great atmosphere and helpful people. I especially enjoyed their taste test but the pufferfish was a little weird. Can't wait to go back and sign up for another taste test when platypus is in season!”
“Weber's Pet Supermarket has a great selection of food & treats. I started going there when my dogs were diagnosed with cancer to try to find food/treats they were willing to eat & fortunately I was able to find several items they liked.”
