Elmer’s Aquarium & Pet Center, Monroeville. The best place for tropical fish, reptiles, and small animals

Livestock is of poor quality and “goods” are highly overpriced.
if your looking for “dry goods” or equipment you can almost ALWAYS find it online for much less, and save gas too by having it delivered to your door.

Never forget to check for online coupons and click throughs like bigcrumbs that’ll save you extra cash!

How about the south hills. Golden Girl Pet grooming is fabulous
Barbara

In Peters Township, K-9 Design is tops. My dog always gets many compliments on her grooming.
Marge

doodes sudz and duds in Mount Pleasant is the best. Lisa is a certified groomer. She is very caring and the dogs love her

Grooming Instructors Husband

Certified by who, the Groomers Association? That’s just a racket, because they charge big bucks, and there’s a separate test for each breed. There is no State certification in Pennsylvania.

Pupourri in New Kensington is a favorite in our area.

3 Dogs & a Cat on the North Side is incredible – friendly, affordable!

Leones at Donaldsons Crossroads in McMurray … The staff is very helpful and knowledgable and supportive about pet foods and care. They also carry plenty of food samples for your pet to try!

Barbara

To boxador lover…gee, you must be there on the days the rude staff is off.

You missed Lucky Paws Pet Resort near Cranberry Township. By far the best Pet Resort, Grooming, and Day Care. They even have a indoor and outdoor park with a pool

Woody’s Dog Wash is the ONLY place I will take my dogs to. Their groomer, Chrissy, is amazing. She does it one dog at a time, so there are no cages and hours of waiting. Which I know makes my mutt feel better.

They’re do-it-yourself part of the store is great for when my dogs roll in something smelly in between grooming’s. The large tubs are great for my Newfoundland, and their shampoos can make any smell cease to exist. They supply everything you need and no time limit.

The boutique section of the store and packed full of interesting and holistic products for dogs. The staff is so knowledgeable about the products and toys. Not to mention friendly!

All around, Me and my dog look forward to our trips to Woodys!

I think everone missed it. The best is Woody’s near South Park. Great staff and lots of different shampoos for different dogs. The owner is super knowledgeable about dogs and the products she sells. Great place, also, to have your dog groomed.

I would question anyone that would put Petsmart or Petco out there as the best. Woody’s Dog Wash & Diamond In the Ruff are the BEST OF THE BEST!
