Reviews of Care-A-Lot Pet Supply
My Golden Retriever just loves this store! She can play with and meet other doggy friends and dog parents. And the staff are soo friendly. My Yellow Lab Zoey just passed after living 16 years of a wonderful got her first visit at 8 weeks old to Care A Lot. She even went to Doggy Daycare while I went to work! She loved it! This store will always hold a special place in my heart. See you in doggy heaven my Zoey. 💘
Every flavor of call of the wild dry dog food in stock. Perfect touch of extra and honestly tho, they have better prices compared to the competition. Is your dog bad and boujee? Will they go nuts for a frisbee? This might be your place
It's a well rounded pet supply store. Plenty of choices although they were out of stock on what I needed, I'll be back. Update: the next time I was able to get both two trays of canned food and the brush I particularly wanted. The small one is effective and gentler.
Care-A-lot is one of my favorite pet stores, it is so big and has such a variety of foods and snacks and toys for pets. I probably go here once a week. The prices are great and the service is amazing. You can find anything that you need in here.
The workers are so knowledgeable about the dog food and supplements. They are always helpful when needed and super attentive. The bathing stations are always clean and the variety of natural dog treats and food is literally the best I’ve ever seen in a store. I rather come here any day than go to pet smart. Dave is the best and was so helpful today. I Will never go anywhere else because you can’t beat the customer service!
The first time I went in seems like I couldn't get any help. Asked the lady about a certain shampoo said if they had it, it would be in a certain aisle. I told her I looked and didn't see any and asked do you know if the store carries it her response was I don't know if we did it would be there. I thought she could have been a little more friendly. I saw that they had a grooming area and asked the two young ladies in there if they knew or could recommend something else. They were awesome!
The second time I went my experience was great. It's my first time having a puppy in over 45 years and didnt know if the harness I picked out would fit. The young lady said that's what I am here for and proceeded to assist me. She showed me how to properly make sure it wasn't to loose or tight on my puppy. She went above and beyond to assist and I really appreciated it. Did I mention she was training another person at the time. I am sure that the trainee learned real customer care/service just by the trainer compassion.
I can't express how much my dog LOVES Care-A-Lot! She loves going to the in store events to socialize with her friends and LURE COURSE is her favorite ever! The grooming staff is so friendly and I can say with 100% certainty that they truly care about my dog! They have gone above and beyond to make sure my dog looks her best!
This place is been the best to take my pet to very much responsibile to care for are pets needs I truly recommend them for all your pets needs
The ladies in the grooming department are awesome! They have so much patience & love for our drama queen! Definitely recommend!
Went for Santa pics and crickets for the bearded dragon. Santa and helpers were great, Santa and my daughter bonded over shared love for my hometown team the Vikings. All other employees were extremely friendly and helpful as well.
Went shopping for a pet carrier. Found exactly what I wanted at a reasonable price. Staff friendly and helpful.
Good store with plenty of variety. A little on the expensive side though. The staff is nice and I like the in store diy dog bath. Game changer for keeping my house clean.
Just got a new puppy and was overwhelmed. Thank you Derrick for your outstanding service making taking my baby home easier!
I love this care-A-lot❤️❤️❤️ in 15 years I've never once left there without a smile. I wish they would share their secret of where they get their employees from. We all could benefit 😁 …
Went here to try their self service dog wash. You have to pay at the customer service desk first then someone will come assist you at the self service area. They have 3 tubs available. Area is a bit cramped especially if all tubs are occupied. It's the first self service wash we have used so I can't say how it compares to others in the area.
Good place to buy pet stuff. Prices are average to a little above average. My only gripe with this place is the checkout is very slow, mostly due to them asking everyone for their phone number at checkout. They really need a card system for their rewards program instead.
Lovee The customer service here! And you can bathe your fur pup for $15 with a nice bathing area and plenty of towels to use they also have good sales!
Great pet store.
This pet store always has the items we need in stock for our Boomer. The self wash dog bath area is always clean and convenient to use.
We use the diamond naturals skin and coat formula for Boomer... so far it's the only dog food that has regulated his digestive system and for a great price too!
Great locally owned pet store. Excellent selection and customer service!
Phenomenal staff. And always a great experience when I take my luna there.
I love that it's a local company and close to my new neighborhood. They have a wonderful selection and lots of Staff. My only complaint would be the several times I've been there, nobody was available to help me find some of the items I was looking for as I was unfamiliar with the store and also have a new pet with different needs. It wasn't until I got to the cash register each time, that the cashier asked if I found everything I needed and I say no not really and the reply is always well yeah we're out of a lot of stuff. Didn't seem to be out of a lot of stuff, just needed to be sent in the right direction, employees should be more attentive to customers.
I had a most pleasant experience today. The store did not have the desired puppy chow on the shelf I was looking for. I inquired about possibly having some in the back of the store and was directed to Derek who is responsible for ordering their dog food. Derek who acted very professional during are encounter worked very diligently to locate this Parina pro plan chow I was searching for. Long story short he came back and said there wasn’t any inside the store but he would gladly fetch some from the warehouse across the street. I declined and stated I don’t have time for this but he insisted it would only take several minutes. I agreed and we parted ways. Derek was back with the trays of dog chow before I knew it. It was almost like he did the one hundred yard dash and returned. This is a perfect example of superb Customer Service! He could have just as easy let me walk out the store dissatisfied but he did not! Derek took it upon himself, having great pride for his job and pleasing the customer to go out in the heat then carry back two trays of dog food that were not physically in the store. Thank you Derek for the lovely experience! You are more than worthy of a higher position than currently manned.
As for Care-A-Lot corporate ... could we please have item# 96004 and 96014 added to your website? I specifically left Chewy.com NOT for cheaper prices but Care-A-Lot has specific items that other competitor may not. I am sure others would like to see these items available for online shopping as well. Thank you.
We Love Care-A-Lot Pet Supply, and We go to the Pet Extravaganza every year! Our American Staffordshire Pitbull "Buckus" Won the Tail Wagging Contest, and got 2nd place in the Ice Cream Eating Contest this year! We had a blast!
Very friendly staff, helpful even when under staffed. Use the self dog wash all the time, $15... they provide 7 kinds of shampoo and face wash, big and small towels, and a blow dryer. Not a fan of Always filling out a waiver form every time we go in, would be nice to have us on file or in their system. Still 5 stars. 22 Jan 23, still helpful, Jennifer went into the back to find more dog pads, team came together to get prices on unmarked items, good to see more staff.
Beautiful store, so many good things. Had to buy a carrier for flying a puppy. Very nice.
Went in to find a feeding dish for my gecko. Bob helped me out. He has been the best at customer service so far.
I have a bird and they appear to be more focused on dogs and cats - just the same they were still super helpful and supportive. I was in and out in a matter of minutes and they had everything I needed!
We take out Getman Shepherd every month for a brush out, and two or three times a year for a bath. The groomers are friendly, great with our dog, and very professional.
Staff went above and beyond! They diligently assisted me in my purchases and were very friendly and informative.
Great variety of products, good customer service and very clean store.
Always enjoy shopping local at Care-a-Lot. This visit I was able to get appropriate cat food for my special diet cat, some catnip, and treats for the dogs. Checkout was quick and staff was friendly.
My dog is always so excited to get a bath at care a lot. Super friendly employees and a huge stock of food, treats and accessories to choose from. I've been to the other places and none go out of their way to make you feel like you and your furry friend are treated like family the way Care a lot does.
I'm not from the area, but this place has definitely been a gem since I've moved here. It's recommended by some very knowledgeable vets in the area, because the name doesn't lie. Their entire inventory feels like it was selected by people who actually care about the well-being and happiness of animals and their humans. It's not the cheapest place in the world but the prices aren't outrageous and they have great sales (as well as reward programs.) They also have some really well kept facilities such as behavioral classes, self serve bathing stations and a doggy day care. If you're the kind of person who appreciates quality products and good service I'd definitely recommend coming here for anything you'd need for your animals.
Service is always friendly. Store is always clean and well stocked. I can always find what i need (and usially more.lol)
Excellent doggy Care Facility. My dog was there about a week and she seemed very happy when I picked her up. The facility is very large and the dogs are not kept in crates most of the day like other facilities. My two-year-old poodle loves playing in their huge playroom.The staff people were very nice and they seem to be very knowledgeable and they also seem to enjoy taking care of dogs.
Their groomers are also very good. But you must be very clear on exactly what cut you want so that you are not disappointed.
Great place to find all your needs. Grooming, vaccinations and boarding are such a convenience!!! Really caring of our love for our babies!!
I visited for the first time. Showed up for the self service dog wash station. $15 is a very fare price. You pay first and give your receipt to an attendant at the wash station. They have you sign a waiver. Whatever… thanks to all the people who get lawsuit happy. They have a menu of shampoo for your dog you pick from and the give you. They also have a head wash that’s tear free for around the eyes. A nice blower that’s not heated to blow off the water and not burn your dog. They have towels that you can grab what you need.
The only thing I don’t like is the step setup. It’s to narrow and my dog will not walk up or down. The area is a little narrow to have a ramp. So you have to lift your dog in and out if it’s timid to unfamiliar places.
Overall it’s 5 star. They clean the area for you so you don’t have to clean up before washing your dog. I wish I would of had some cash to tip the employee working and cleaning the area. Next time I’ll bring s couple bucks to tip. That’s how clean it is.
They had a Santa for Christmas, and the whole staff was helpful, friendly, and understanding that I had a freaked out little puppy (she may have peed a little) but honestly, these guys are great year round. Anytime I come in there with Lexxi someone will take some special time with her. She thinks she deserves it but I know how much it means to take your time at work. These people are passionate about pets. We love shopping here.
A great local pet store. Everything you could want from a pet supply. The staff members were very happy and helpful.
They need more harness choices and a cashier told me they no longer carried chicken feet but they do and when I found the she tried to say they were duck feet .....like just admit you didn't know
This is the best pet store in Hampton Roads. Prices are fair, staff is friendly, and selection is vast. Their groomers are great as well. My dog is obsessed with Sabrina!
We spoil our dog here very often. They have all the food, treats and toys you can imagine (among many other products). The prices are competitive to the industry, some thing we find are even slightly cheaper than your big name stores (such as Chewy).
While they only do the luring once a month; the store is stocked, they have self baths staff is friendly. Pretty smart who😒 …
Great pet supply store!!! If you need advice on dog food and other essentials, ask for Kathy! She is the best!
I gave 4 stars because other employees, although very friendly, do not have a good level of knowledge, as they should.
great place, prices are reasonable, very helpful staff but didnt have what I needed.
I have been shopping here for the last several years and love this place. Their prices are comparable to others, even online vendors. The store is ALWAYS clean and organized. The staff is friendly and eager to help. My dogs know the smell of the store and always meet me at the front door looking for whatever treat I grabbed for them. It is a locally owned business so that is a big plus in my opinion.
Staff was friendly, i love the raw bar options and the prices on said items. They also have birthday themed dog toys which i love since my dog is named Birthday and the price was great. She loved the chicken foot we got at check out. It was her first time at a pet store and she loved it there. I also like that they have areas around the shop with supplies to clean up accidents not that she had one. I just like that i wouldnt have to go up to staff to ask for what i needed. The place was clean, items were easy to find, and everyone was friendly. I cant wait to take her here again. It was a treat for both of us.
laid out /.merchandiced perfect ...pleasant staff. .....dog food prices are no bargain and staff is not to educated in grainfree
What I love about the place is if you forget what you need to rebuy they can look it up. That why you always buy the right item 1st time. Sansa love walking around there.
I have been a customer for several years and I always love the service, hospitality and atmosphere. Great place to shop for my boy Tyson.
Great people to get the right information for your pet needs. Reasonable prices on everything I have needed and they have ordered parts for my cage and when I picked it up it was no charge. Definitely did not expect that.
Excellent service and the care they show our puppy is beyond expectations! Our young pup is full of energy and when we pick him up after day care, he is pooped out happy for the rest of the day. Highly recommend their doggie dog care and boarding!
Took my pups for a bath the staff was very helpful and very nice. Love their self service bath stations 15 bucks and all you bring is your puppy.
Used dog was station. $15 for deeps sink, towels, shampoo, blow dry and friendly staff to assist.
Love taking my pets here to shop! They throw really cool events too!
Have a variety of pets supplies. As well as pet services. Awsome service
Thank you Ms. Kathy for your help I really appreciate how you took the time to help me with my fur baby situation...
Fantastic staff! Extremely friendly and you can tell they enjoy their job as well as assisting customers. Prices were reasonable and they seem to have a lot of sales. Everything was easy to find, the store was clean, and they had a great selection of just about everything you may need.
Only place i go to for my dogs. Only one that has instinct dog food.
Very nice variety for dogs. Could use bigger variety for other animals.
Was disappointed they got rid of almost all their aquatic stuff in replacement for canine goods. Plenty of cat supplies.
Also had ferret supplies for me which was surprising. Staff was very sweet and helped me size my animal for a harness. Fast service.
Friendly staff, reasonable prices, tons of products, well cared for reptiles, birds, small mammals and fish. Store is always clean and organized!
So fun for our puppy to go shopping in. He loves this place
Great inventory and very friendly knowledgable staff
Really like this pet supply store & it's walking distance from the house
So I let a friwatch my dog and she came home with fleas I never dealt with fleas b4 but as soon as I walked into care a lot Wendy came to the rescue 💙 my heroine she was so great helping me and I totally appreciate her hospitality kudos to Wendy 🥳🥳🥳u r awesome ty so much ❤️ …
I fine what I need and everyone is nice
If I need help they do there best to help
I love this place! I can find everything my pup needs for a reasonable price and the selection is great. I don't being my dog to the groomer here anymore though. After the last time she came in she trembles at grooming. I can't be sure anything inappropriate happened - maybe she's just being dramatic because she doesn't want to have her nails clipped (she's a drama queen who's faked injuries all the way to the ER, so it wouldn't shock me). I don't have any evidence that anything happened and I'm sure even if it did it was by accident - these guys are good people! But just in case, it's worth mentioning because we all love our pups. Thankfully it's easy for me to groom her at home. For everything else though - food, toys, supplements, etc. etc. - I go to Care-A-Lot every time!
I took my dog to Noelle for his first grooming appointment here. Noelle worked literal magic! My little guy is older and can be very anxious and temperamental, but Noelle did such an amazing job with him. His haircut looks great and we will definitely be back to see her. She is a great asset to Care-A-Lot and I'm very grateful we found her!
I love this place. It's a great store and I also use them for grooming. I love care-a-lot
My girlfriend and I have become a regulars here. They carry all the premium dog foods (Fromm, NutriSource, etc.) that you can't find anywhere else and at a decent price. Plus they have a huge inventory of toys and treats which gets our dogs so excited when we come in. I'm a big fan of their self service dog baths too, they give you everything you need to get your pup clean and smelling good! Love this place
This store has a smaller selection than PetSmart, but it always smells and looks clean. We buy the vast majority of our pet supplies here.
Good selection & great staff
The employees are always super helpful and it's easy to find what you need.
I love supporting locally owned businesses whenever possible. I was going to pick something up from another big chain pet supply store until someone recommended this place to me since I'm new to the area. The store is beautiful. So much variety in their products and services! The customer service is absolutely outstanding... All in all, its a pet owners dream! I love that they have multiple locations here. I'm moving to the peninsula next month so I'll have access to one of their locations there.
Super nice and several excellent products available.
Mrs. Kathy was great. I thought I followed all instructions given to me by workers when I bought a fish for my 3 year old daughter today. It died within an hour. Mrs. Kathy helped me figure out what was wrong with my fish. The water I put in it was too warm. Instead of outright saying my daughter's fish died right in front of her, she said she was the fish doctor and that our fish was sick and needed to get better so she would fix that one and give us a different one. I followed all of Mrs. Kathy's instructions and this new fish is happy and healthy! Thank you so much I will be coming back here. In addition to that this is a locally owned pet store. This is my first time ever writing a review, it was just that good here! Come here you wont regret it.
I just love Carealot! It's my Sec. Home. I have worked for the Clarke's, for 1/2 of my life. Which is a very Good thing. I am blessed to have such a Wonderful job, which I look forward to every morning.
Love this animal supply center .The staff members are friendly. Clean and spacious. Your needs are there for the picking. I've been a custom since 1994. I went today for my dog and bird. When a staff member saw I was not sure of a product, she was right there to help me .Happy National Dog Day.
All of the workers at the doggie day care are absolutely WONDERFUL! Their love for our dogs is evident and they take such great care of them. One of our dogs is a rescue and has several health conditions and they’ve been nothing but helpful with him. Our other dog is a blue healer and he had hesitations at first about being around so many other dogs, but they worked with him diligently and he has really shown improvements! Would recommend Care-A-Lot to anyone! We especially love Sam!!
I shop there a lot. The store is nice and clean. The employees are friendly and helpful. They have a lot of good sales. I have also had my dogs trained there and I enjoy doing the pack walks. I buy pack walk cards regularly to keep connected to other dog lovers and to keep my dogs happy 🐕 …
Ben was awesome!!! I had a lot of questions and he very patiently helped the dog mama out! I would have preferred he give me a few more samples for my picky eater, but...and I'm adding photos. Stuffies usually last about 10 min. This one lasted a full 30!
Times have been rough $$ and I was having anxiety about bathing my 100 lb Shepherd, he’s a good boy BUT baths are def not his forte 😂. Decided to try the self dog bath and let me tell you, I’ll use it EVERY time my baby needs a bath! Soo easy, in and out! The customer service was extremely helpful she showed me where everything was and gave little tips/tricks! Tried to clean the drain a bit and she told me not to worry she would take care of it 😳 no clean up afterward? What?! Thank you so much for a pleasant experience cause when I walked in I had such anxiety about the whole thing!! Care A Lot you ROCK!! ❤️🐾
Organized really well. Welcomed when we walked in. Super friendly associates walking around! Someone else's dog peed and he nicely moped it up with no hesitation.
This is the only place I take my dog for grooming as they always do a super job! Prices are very reasonable throughout the store too.
I love going here with my baby. I use the grooming services along with the vet they have on standby. Sweetie is a hard girl to please and has a tendency to get nervous around other dogs. The staff make her feel safe and welcome. She has even stolen some of their hearts. My only complaint is that they are priced high on some items and services. However the level of care and attention here makes up for it. I highly recommend if you want quality care and peace of mind.
Wasn't too crowded when I went. Store was clean and the staff was courteous.
We love shopping here with our dog!
Very organized, clean.
Staffs are kind and nice, there knowledge of anything about pets are just amazing.
Found everything we needed for our dog in a pleasant shopping environment.
Excellent customer service from the girl who was watching the bath station. Wish I could remember her name but she was very knowledgeable on no pull or escape leashes and calming treats for my pup. Thank you Again the leash is amazing!!
This is local business at it's best. They have everything. Well stocked and fairly priced food and supplies. The staff is helpful, knowledgeable, and friendly. Big box can't keep up with Care-A-Lot.
This place is awesome! They might be a little more pricey than Pet Smart, but what they offer is better quality and I would say they have an even better selection of goods to choose from. The staff are also friendly and helpful.
I shop regularly here for my dog I rescued from the shelter in October. The staff is always friendly and helpful. Most are also very knowledgeable about animals and are able to assist new owners make good choices. This visit, I used they're grooming service. I was very satisfied.
Was trying to purchase Super Worms for our Hedgehog. Called before and was told they did NOT carry those. While in the store with my Daughter, who was getting supplies for my Granddaughter's Fish Tank, I saw plastic containers labeled as "Super Worms", and politely asked a question about them from the young lady who was standing within feet of us, and had a vest and name tag, identifying her as a Care A Lot employee. She told me yes, she did have expertise in this particular area of Care-alot, but had no idea about the Super Worms, as they are sent to them pre-packed, and she and Care-alot had nothing to do with them. She rudely turned away, and began talking on her cell phone, ignoring my question about possibly getting someone else to help us. I have always been happy with the service and the caring employees at this Care-alot, and I completely understand that people can be going through a hard time, having a bad day. I know this past year has been filled with sorrow and grief for my Family, along with many others. We all get up in the morning, wondering how we can face the day with a positive attitude amidst all the worry, insecurity, tragedy. But one thing I know to be oh so true, is the way for all of us to get through this, is to band together, not alienate each other. You never know what the next person you have contact with during your day, may be going through, and it is in all our best interest, to lend an ear, reach out a hand, show some empathy, put a smile on another human's face that has not smiled in so long. The way through our fear and uncertainty is through our validation and support from our fellow humans, and isn't it crazy how that could all start with some Super Worm information, so I can feed my Hedgehog, who most definitely has been one of my most uplifting Quarantine buddies of all. Share Love not Hate Come Together not Apart.
Great store with helpful employees. Most likely has everything you need for your pet. Without hesitation I will be back in the near future. Ample parking. Average prices.
My dog is real picky about his food so I went in there to try to find some food the manager really helped me out a lot he was very nice a bald headed gentleman really nice man he gave me a few samples in a bag to help to see if my dog like that well come to find out the dog didn't like that so I'm back to zero but I'll be back there and care a lot nice place nice and clean
This place is amazing. They carry the absolute best special selection of dog food in town. Very knowledgeable and happy to help, the staff is second to none. Had the most pleasurable experience and will continue to come here. The selection of everything is amazing
Staff was sweet and welcoming. Facilities were clean. Masks worn, sanitizer openly available.
Awesome store for dog supplies. We used to get our food from here, best price in town, but moved to Moyock. I still go back for treats, toys & medical items. Nobody has a better selection. Excellent staff with perfect recommendations. Give them a try, very much worth the drive!
I've been to this store several times (the other location is closer to me). Staff is always friendly. There's a big selection of everything I've ever needed for my dog. Prices are a bit high but not terrible. Store is clean and employees were all wearing masks.
Very friendly and when sick the trainer Mike called to check on me.
Courteous and helpful employees. The assistant manager who rang me up, made sure I had the correct product that I needed. I had picked up a product for dogs and the one I was suppose to get is for cats. I'm so glad he caught that and got me straight. The employees were very welcoming and positive. Keep it up Care-A-Lot! 🙂 …
Used the self wash station. It was better than advertised. Great water temp, abundant amount of shampoos, towels, air dryer and enough equipment to prevent from getting soaked. They have 3 bays and plenty of room for my son and I to wash our dog together. The tubs are also built at three different heights, which from what I can tell, would suit dogs of all sizes and they are very clean. Noelle provided us some great advice as well. Overall, great experience, well worth the money and easier than at the house. We will be back on a regular basis
Very good pet supply store that has top name brands, normal name brands, and Premier items. You can find the basics and the extremely hard to find here. They have some unique items that are superb for pets. I am aware that they offer grooming and other services but I typically only shop here for pet supplies. Service is relatively quick and prices are very good. They always have what you need or want.
They are so helpful and very friendly. They also know what to get for my dog. I been going back every week. I love their supplies even if its expensive I just love it my dog is feeling better and looking a lot of weight. Thank you so much for your hospitality staffs.😍💕💖 …
Care-A-Lot has good inventory, knowledgeable employees and good prices
The care my new puppy received was awesome. Needed 2nd set of shots, long wait but they explained problem. Vet Tech was so sweet, she explained several things to me,, gave informative info and everyone was super friendly. They loved my pup which put them at the top. Lol.
I always come to this care a lot. However, today an associate named Derek, asked if I needed any help, and he was beyond helpful. We even share a love for pitties(pitbulls)!! He was helpful, and personable. I have been in customer service for 18 years, and he was a great example of excellent customer service and care!! Thanks Derek!!
They have what most traditional pet stores do not have. Where else can you find turkey necks, fish skin or even chicken heart snacks, just to name a few, for dogs? I've been told their doggy day care is amazing as well.
Fantastic selection. Staff is friendly but not all staff is fully trained. One employee was uncertain if they price matched their own website. Who knows, could’ve been his first day. So I won’t judge. Huge selection of higher end food and a very clean store. Probably helps they’re across the street from their corp office. ;)
Large selection of items, several brand names to choose from. Stores are kept clean, eventhough animals are allowed to accompany their owners. The staff is friendly and interact with my dog. Most of the staff are knowledgeable about the products they sell.
Very convenient to my area. Wide variety of goods for all types of pets. Pricing is in line with their competitors for higher end pet food.
50% the led light I needed
Great customer service from a very knowledgeable person named Kathy!!
She brings tons of business in. Many customers come to this location just to see her and ask her advice on the best products for their pets. She's always busy helping and answering questions for customers and other employees. She's been working there for a long time and you can tell that she really loves her job. Don't forget to ask for Kathy!!🐶🐺🐕🐈🐶🐺🐶🐺
Awesome experience! They have so much to choose from inside. If you have a dog, this is paradise. I have a cat and was very pleased with the selection here. I will definitely be returning!
Edit: still love shopping here! Christmas goodies for my furry children, all courtesy of Care-A-Lot! Thanks guys!
I have been going to this pet store for years and have no complaints. The employees are quick to ask if I need help with anything and to point me in the right direction. Great customer service! I recently got into Tropical Fish keeping and the staff in the fish department are patient, eager to answer all my questions, and very knowledgeable. As I have been researching and shopping around at different pet stores, I realize how spoiled I've become with Care-A-Lot. I'm not going to go into details about the poor service I've had elsewhere, I'm just going to say "Thank you" to the staff at this location for making this new adventure a fun and exciting one :)
I almost exclusively shopped at Petsmart up until today. I was at Petsmart for a specific item that they happened to be out of- I heard about Care a lot from a coworker recently and I decided to try to find the product there. From the minute I walked in I felt welcome. The store associates were more than helpful, everyone I came into contact with was friendly, knowledgeable and professional. I have not had a retail experience that positive in a long time. Not only did I find the item I was looking for, the same brand was $7.99 that was $18.99 at Petsmart! I gave my mom a call to let her know this is the new pet supply store of choice for my family and that she should also switch- she said she can’t wait to come try it out. I can not wait to come back! As a manager myself, I could not hope for employees as willing and customer service oriented as the people working in this store. A gentleman in a cavaliers hat was especially hospitable and I greatly appreciate his knowledge and helpfulness. Thank you care a lot!!!!
Got lots of great things for our aggressive chewer. Sometimes we don't know what will stand up to our dog's jaws, but Derek was very helpful, being a pitbull owner himself. He gave us some free product samples, too! Everyone was super friendly and helpful!
I love that everyone is so knowledgeable. But I just wish they sold more fish.
I absolutely love this store. They are very knowledgeable about pets and the products they sell. I spoke to one of the representatives about a flea and tick product and was told they do not care it because they found out it can be harmful to the dog. I thought that was great.It showed they are not just about selling items to make money. They also carry a very unique line of products, so much more than the other big name pet supply chains.
I just can't say enough about this local pet business. They offered home events for pets with lots of free samples activities and fun. Their prices are competitive and their employees are very friendly. They also have a pet grooming area as well as Affordable Veterinary Services a Virginia that are available to pet owners every weekend at each store location. They also have a pretty new and current pet tag machine where you can personalize the color shape and information you want on dog tags or tags for other animals.
I had just rescued 2 Chihuahua sisters and needed to stop and get the food theyve been eating on our way home so I went here bc they allow your doggies to go in with you. A kind woman , a little bit older , not only helped me locate the food BUT also carried the bag up frony to register area AND waited in line with me bc my hands were full holding my dogs. Great experience.
great pet store lots of choices. hard to find items are stocked here. the staff is extremely helpful and friendly.
It used to be the place to go for pet supplies. Employees would greet you and were always offering assistance. They carry a wide selection of products, however I can not always find what I need even after having been directed by other websites. I do not visit as often as before due to Amazon's larger selection and comparable price.
I as an employee at Care-a-lot as a part time job and I loved. The staff was always cooperative and supportive, and very knowledgeable of their products. I loved the job and the only reason I left was because I had to go back to school. Since then I have adopted 2 dogs and Care-a-Lot is where I do all my shopping now. The prices are the cheapest hands down and the daycare and vet services are phenomenal! Everyone is so sweet and loving I feel like they are an extension of my own family. I would highly recommend this store to anyone who loves their pets!
This place is Awesome for all pets and animals!!!, don't even know why I go to PetSmart other than the distance for the same, or similar products, but Care-A-Lot is naturally 10 percent cheaper.
I like that you can take your pet into the store. Large spacious store with super friendly employees. Big dog statues on the upper shelves freaked out a lady's Labrador puppy - he barked for 20 minutes. Please note: they don't have exotic animals to sell - no lizards or pet snakes.
Thanks so much Derrick! Went in with my cat and he gave us a whole bunch of FREE cat food and cat snacks, he asked me and my husband if we had a dog and once again, came back with more FREE dog food and dog treats! Love the staff super friendly. I come here to shop and for the vet services, love this place so much. Really appreciate it, would really recommend 😊
The pet grooming is FANTASTIC! My bassett hound just loves Brittany! She is so sweet and kind. All the girls that work there are great kind,caring and understanding. I wouldn't even think of taking my dog anywhere else.
Was pretty disappointed to walk in there the other day to see that they had completely eliminated there saltwater fish area. All they offer now or a random assortment of mostly freshwater tank items and a small wall of bettas. However, I understand that there are a lot of specialty fish stores in the area and it is probably better for business that they just focus more on are there pet needs. We have an Airedale and love picking up stuff for her at Care-A-Lot.
Utilities for the self bathe area are perfect.
Good customer service and the staff is concerned about your pet. I love that because I love my pets 👍👍👍👍to the store which is very clean and the staff for caring and give Ms. Kathy a better g Thank you for being so caring and informal about my pets. Thank you Ms.Newby …
People Are friendly and helpful. However the prices are always too high. some of the sale items Are Some what deceiving in that if they are priced in a way that say for Instance 20 for $20 if you buy 10 it's still at full price. They are convenient In their location though. And also have Most everything that you would need.
Great service and selection of pet items. I like to take my toy poodle here for shopping trips. The affordable pet services are great for those on a budget. They tend to carry a huge variety of natural and healthy dog foods. They also have cute events for the family!
I love the store, and Mr Derek is an awesome person who helps me out over and over again he keeps me looking good and my dog smelling healthy eating good all the above he is awesome
Best prices on the nutro pet food line. But today there seemed to be an issue with the customer service counter. I'm glad I ran into one of the trainers, it's always fun to share with Madison how my rescue hound is settling into her life with us.
Convenient location but prices are a little high
Great selections, friendly employees, clean store, and knowledgeable folks. My dog loves "primal raw" your dog will too. Frozen and freeze dried. I love when you have vendors visit so you get to know new products....that's how I found PRIMAL FOODS. Thank you and Rrrrruuuffffff from Cinnamon.
Very well organized, reasonable prices, and friendly staff! Great place to shop for pet supplies!!
Very clean and organized! All staff was nice and greeted me.
Very knowledgeable and attentive staff. One member in particular (wish I had gotten his name during my August 1st visit ) was eager to help me find the right product for my fur-baby's needs. He stuck by me and made insightful suggestions until I found the perfect product. I highly recommend Care-A-Lot for your many pet care needs. I will be returning to Care-A-Lot for all of my boy's products, veterinary and grooming needs. Thanks, again, to the kind associate who made my first experience with Care-A-Lot memorable and gained a long term customer as a result.
We have Been here a few times over the years. I used to have a lot of animals and stuff here they don't know but they do still do training for animals. Lots of food supplies toys treats leashes collars I do shots and grooming I believe. Stores a little expensive but I'm sure they doing it for good causes. Have 4 thumbs up 4 stars
Use affordable vet care then spend$$$$ on all the neat stuff for my precious little Buddy.
The employees are so special. They stop whatever they are doing to ask if they can help you. They are friendly and knowledgeable and they are the reason I drive 5 miles past Pet Smart and into a different city to go here. Keep up the good work and thank you!
Definitely a pet store that lives up to its name. Knowledgeable, caring staff. Don't think we came across a single employee that didn't ask if we needed help. Super nice because in other large local pet stores you almost always have to go searching for assistance. And the organization that does they're Santa Pet pics does an amazing job.
We like the store but the clinic they offer on the weekends is a joke.
I know that the clinic isn't affiliated to the store and I already said I like the store.
Asking me to edit my review isn't Professional AT ALL.
Employees are very nice and helpful. Love seeing all th pets, when they come in.
Found a harness for both my yorkies and the staff was very helpful making sure my dogs were fitted correctly.
The staff is super helpful and can answer any questions you may have. Not the biggest pet store I've gone to but they had everything I needed and has a wide variety of pet food. From what I remember they cover fish, cats, dogs, birds and I believe lizards. They even have a place for your dog to stay if you're leaving town for a bit.
Love this place! They have most of the stuff for your pet needs. It's huge and organized and clean! Tho they did not have the slow feeder for my cat that I was looking for...
Never had a problem finding what I was looking for and almost always found something marked down although it is easy to spend a lot of money. Staff is very friendly and happy to help. I think they offer class and training as well as grooming and boarding.
The staff are very knowledgeable, especially the groomers. They not only tends to your furbabies needs, they will also take time to educate you on how better to help you take care of them yourself in the event you can't bring them in to be serviced. They understand you can't always come in and would rather educate you to help them at home then have them not be taken care of properly. Covid-19 has changed many things, but the heart of the staff is not one of them. Thank you!
They carry a lot of specialty brands like Fromm , Orijen, and Acana. I've never encountered any issues for the 2 years I've shopped at care a lot. Recently, I had a great customer service experience shopping online. I couldn't get the website to accept my credit card since billing and shipping address were different. So I called them and spoke to a representative and it was processed! Thank you!
Care a Lot is a great family owned pet store. They carry many high quality foods and products for all kinds of pets. We are very happy with the groomers there as well. They also have Doggy daycare and boarding as well as dog training programs.
Employees very helpful, clean store but often they are out of the items I need. Update- I tried to exchange an unused harness for the correct size that still had tags on and with receipt. They said no returns due to Covid-19. I asked where is the sign that states the policy but they admitted they don't have any sign to let you know. So I'm stuck with a harness I wouldn't have spent 40 bucks on if I was aware of this policy. I spend 300-400 monthly in there but never again. Some things you wouldn't buy if you weren't sure of size and no returns. It felt like they are taking advantage of their own customers. Clerk was also a real petty jerk about it all. Bye bye Care a lot cuz you really don't care.
Cat litter is quite expensive as is cat food here. Small animal items is what I usually purchase because they have a good variety and reasonable prices. I was told by an employee that they will price match. That employee and I looked up cat litter. A manager was called to help but then disappeared to help someone else. I told the employee I was taking a screen shot for when the manager returns. She didn't so I stepped out of line. Another manager asked if I needed help. I was then told by her that it couldn't be found on the internet. I felt embarrassed by several people looking at me holding up 2 different lines. I will stick to purchasing my small animals items and forget the cat department completely.
I love going to care alot! Always friendly staff and huge selection of premium dog and cat foods. They offer a free loyalty program where every 10 bags of food you get one free. They have great prices which most big box chain pet stores can't compete with, but offer price matching to keep customers loyal. They do not have small pets for sale but have freshwater and saltwater fish, plants, coral and sometimes turtles and amphibians. They have supplies including cages, crates, and tanks for fish, reptiles, small animals, birds, cats and dogs. They have a great selection of professional grade grooming supplies as well as an in house groomer and doggy daycare. Every weekend they have a low cost vet clinic that comes out and uses their space. Throughout the year they have events put on by them and their vendors- one I went to had doggy dock diving and the vendors passed out coupons and free samples, and they had local dog and cat adoption agencies present. I once had an issue with a price on dog food and (I can't remember his name) the manager who was an african American gentleman, helped me with no hassle and was obviously trained that the customer is always right and to help fix problems within his means. I am hooked- a regular customer who comes here for my aquarium and fish needs, dog and cockatiel products. Their fish dept even offers free water testing. Most interaction with their staff has left me feeling like they're well trained, smart/informed and if a question can't be immediately answered they'll find an answer. I was interested in ordering a specific type of fish and they were unsure at the time if it could be ordered and I was later contacted by phone to let me know, upon reordering. If they don't have something in store they will try their best to find it for you. Corporate office is local and their buyer can be contacted by management to try n help you. They have floor models to look at for cages and crates and tanks, and offer to put things together for you before leaving..... Someone in management or corporate is doing a good job here with training and standards of customer service.
Friendly with competitive prices, sometimes even better than what's at the Navy Exchange.
Absolutely love this store it has so many different types of food for pets and decent prices on everything as well!
Great store and great products. People are nice there. We take our dog there to get groomed.
I love care alots, but i never received my phone call telling me my dog was ready from the groomers. I called the groomers left for the day and noone seemed to care. Pretty sure my dog was the last one picked up. Felt bad for my baby. They need to step up on calling owners
Great pet store, friendly staff. Hidden Gem is their $15 self service bath area. They provide the shampoo, apron and hair dryer for your pup. So convenient!
Great pet supply place. Everyone is always helpful and actually know something about the products they sell. Been a long time customer and always get the answer to the questions I have about taking great care of my dogs.
I moved to VA beach about 18mos ago and discovered Care a lot driving by the Diamond Springs store. I've lived in several cities so am familiar with the big super pet stores. Whenever I could, I would support any available mom and pop store.
Currently, I have 2 rescued Border Collies and a parrot. So far, Care a lot is my favorite pet store, ever. Just a couple of days ago I finally got a friend of mine who has a big dog and is a PetSmart customer, to come with me to "my" pet store. She loved the store and is no longer a PetSmart customer.
In my opinion, this store specializes mostly in dogs and cats. The bird section is very small and I have noticed imperfect fish tanks. That being said, I visit the store at least twice/month and my local bird store, about once every 3 mos.
For Care a lot to maintain what I consider fair pricing policies, they adjust inventory accordingly. So would any owner. If I want a huge store with everything from snails, to birds, to rabbits, to reptiles, etc etc etc, that's what the giant stores are for. I don't need nor want that. I prefer the size, service and location of Care a lot. I have also found their employees friendly and informed. Someone always welcomes me when I walk in the door. I've never had trouble finding someone if I needed help. I've even been escorted to what I was looking for as opposed to pointed to. For these and many other reasons, such as their 3 days, annual outdoor dog party (my word, not theirs), Care a Lot has a loyal customer in me.
This store is amazing. I'm surprised it took me so long to find here. The selection of amazing and worth the trip. Brands you can only find online you can get from this store. A new favorite.
We use their groomers to groom are miniature schnauzer. They do a great job and are very pleased with their service. They also carry lots of pet supplies at a cheaper price then at the name bran places. This is a locally owned and operated company so we are supporting our community.
The staff is extremely helpful, and the lines are efficiently managed. When the checkout lines get long, they immediately open more registers to get people out quickly and keep everyone distanced.
Wide selection, pretty great employees.
Only ever had one issue when I told an unprofessional and overly excited employee that she couldn’t pet my service dog (that was wearing DO NOT PET and SERVICE DOG patches) and she proceeded to scoff and tell me how rude I was. Haven’t seen her since though 🤷🏻♀️
Love their family events!!
No complaints, truly satisfied with their customer service.
Great local pet supply store that carries a wider variety than Petsmart or Petco. The prices may be a little higher, but not by much and the experience and friendliness of the staff makes up for it. I just wish it was closer to our house.
Really great staff and the store has everything you could need. I adopted my dog and needed to change her food, the staff were right next to me with bags of food sprawled across the ground reading ingredients and comparing different brands for what was best for me and my dog. I absolutely reccomend this place.
I love it there. Their employees our very knowledgeable about animals
Good selection of products, deducted a star due to their policy of needing to show ID to pay with a card. One time I left my ID at home and they would not let me buy anything. Very unnecessary
I have been a customer of Care A Lot grooming since 2012. I have tried the "competition" but they don't measure up. My opinion has been "Lab" tested and approved! My baby Bucky and I absolutely LOVE Nicole at the Diamond Springs Rd location.
Been shopping here for years! Great, friendly, helpful people! They sell a huge selection of pet supplies. And have lots of pet services.
I love shopping here for my cat. I get great service and advice from the staff, who are all friendly and helpful. It's much further than Petco or Petsmart for me, but the deals and service keep me coming back time after time!
Very helpful staff. Went in looking for some medicated shampoo for my dog. Sales associate directed me to the correct area, gave a couple off suggestions and went on her merry way. Nice experience.
What a wonderful place for my 4 legged family members and I to shop! The staff is so helpful and friendly!
The staff in this establishment are very friendly and helpful. They offer a large variety of pet products, dog grooming and have a affordable vet clinic inside. I highly recommend this place of business for all of your pet needs.
Typically I love this place and have a great experience but Saturday there was a Husky and an owner who was clearly not training it nor had any idea how to control it. He was snapping at my dogs in the check out line and at every dog going by. The woman was at the register for 10 minutes. God knows what was going on because I was watching her dog more than she was apparently. He was getting my dogs worked up. I had all 3 of mine. One of mine, the older one who is getting a little short tempered with his age when prevoked was not having this husky. My husband walked out the store with our dogs to prevent any altercation. The employees were doing nothing for this dog, more concerned with ringing the woman up than her problematic dog. Another employee got at a cashiere and checked someone else out who had just walked up and then left again. I'd been waiting for a while now. An older man walked by with his golden retriever and the husky jumped on it and latched onto its neck fur. The woman then decided to pull her dog off that dog right before it slipped the collar and ran off. I just set the items I was going to buy down and walked out. I doubt that Care A Lot will be getting much more of my business.
You can get safe foods for your pets here- Made in the USA & grain free. They're more reasonable in prices. The staff is helpful.
Care-A-Lot on diamond springs got rid of their fish department so it's pretty much worthless to me but at least Dog and cat people probably couldn't do better other than chewy.com price wise. It kicks PetCo and PetSmart right where it hurts our wallets
Had all the things i need for my pet needs, love this place!!! 10 star for the awesome customer service.
I just moved to the Virginia Beach area and started to go to Care-A-Lot only been there about six or seven times but today when I went there was a gentleman a Caucasian gentleman that explain everything and more said he would be back as something else to do and he actually came back and helped us for at least 30 to 45 minutes to given us correct and prompt information on our new puppy this guy was great in that outstanding employee and deserves a raise and a promotion just can't remember his name it was knowledgeable and dogs as well as fish gave me advice that I never knew thank you so much Care-A-Lot is a great place to bring your pets and meet good people everyone is happy and friendly and eager to help you out thanks so much Care-A-Lot will be my number one go to pet supply store for now on Diamond Springs Road location Virginia Beach
I took my dog there for his rabies... the entire Staff there was amazing. Friendly Helpful and patient. Will return
This place is very clean and you can bring your pets with you while you shop. We have new items to be checked out..we have also remodeled the store
Staff is friendly and helpful. Come by and check out our store we are on diamond springs road
Ordered online for local delivery and got my order SAME DAY! Cheaper than buying it anywhere else, same day service, and the in store service is always phenomenal too. Can't say enough good things about them!!!
We are in here multiple times a week. They know my husband by name he is inntje store so often. We have large fish tanks, large dogs, a rabbit, turtles, tortoises, and a guinea pigs. We get ALL of our pet supplies here! They give my daughter a sticker whenever she goes too, very clean store and friendly staff!
We discovered this place after rescuing kittens on a Sunday, when the SPCA was closed. They have everything you could need for care, entertainment and food. The staff is nice, polite and very well learned on most animals and products. Not to mention they are about half the price of Petco, PetSmart and others.
Our rescue puppy had his first professional grooming appointment here and they were absolute dolls about his anxious behaviour. His nails were trimmed perfectly, he's shiny and smooth, and they cleaned his ears without making him upset. Seriously coming back here for grooming all the time now.
Care-A-Lot is one of the best pet store that I know of. While the specialize in dog supplies, they have just about anything you would need for cats, birds and small animals plus a good aquarium section.
They specialize in quality foods and that is were they excell with special orders for most anything you could want
We absolutely love this place! Fantastic self serve dog wash, extremely friendly staff, abundance of toy and treat selections as well as anything else your pets might need! WE LOVE IT HERE!
Great selection of products. Just felt like I was constantly being followed by employees, made me want to hurry up and leave, not stay and peruse the merchandise. I like to be left alone when I shop and this is not the store for that. Could have made more from me if yall reigned it in a little bit.
Great selection for bird's they have alot for my caique parrot 🐦 snuggles...my pet 🐖, not so much tho...I did get her a nice pink harness and leash to match tho 🤷♂️🙋♂️ …
If you're a pet owner this is a great place I found everything I needed here I had a problem I brought up collar too big for my dog and there was no problem exchanging it great recommendations on the food lovely
Great selection of everything, definitely different from other pet stores like pet smart, however still missing some everyday items you'd expect
Day care staff is awesome and great.
Store is organized and clean and staff is friendly!
stood waiting at counter to be helped and no one came to help. went to cashier line to wait, only to be told to go back to counter to wait for someone to come help me. once I was given item that I wanted, I had to return to cashier line. you need a better system and signs to explain.
Amazing people!! Amazing store!! They cared about my dog and helped me find exactly what I needed for his specific skin issues and picky eating. I will recommend them any day!
They have Original Charlie Bear
We love to have our Boucher Des Flanders groomed here. Everyone is friendly, they stock most things you need or want for your pet. Well stocked and clean.
Wide selection of almost everything for your pet. The dog treats offer organic and non meat if that's your thing. A whole wall of beds and kennels. I definitely reccomend for your pet needs.
It is NOT PetSmart! Care-A-Lot has integrity. They have been open on Diamond Springs Road since the 1980's. Everyone working there is an animal lover. They carry good products and the staff can explain the details accurately.
Really nice store! Great variety though I wish they had more cat stuff. Friendly helpful staff!
They do an outstanding job grooming my dog. He has a lot of hair and requires extra attention which he gets in spades! I love how soft and silky his hair is and his French braid is very attractive.
I own two businesses in NJ and it was such a breathe of fresh air to deal with Hunter. The passion and knowledge that he displayed was incredibly impressive. He is a keeper on every front. Thank you for your time, knowledge and care.
Excellent and huge pet store, their staff cares and seem knowledgeable. The store has pet supplies for most types of pets but they certainly specialize and seem to cater to dogs.
This place has a decent staff, but the customers and their dogs seem so out of control, making a mess everywhere, not notifying the employees after their dogs make a mess and just letting their dogs go crazy chewing all the toys. Not puppies either, full grown dogs !
People that own a pet should take there dog/s to bath them there. It is truly a convience and so much easier on you. They will even supply shampoo, towels and a bib to keep you dry. The staff members are there to answer any questions you may have. Very helpful!
Way better than petco
The Dr and staff was great and friends made me wanna get checked out lol.... My puppy got her first shots and dewormer and didn't cry nor have any side effects afterwards...... Diamonds spring Rd is there boomb
The last 2 times I shopped for Wellness Weight Maintenance in the middle size bag you didn't have any. I ask an employee if you were not going to carry Wellness any longer and he said you had discontinued it. The cashier said it had not been discontinued. I would hope you are going to continue to carry it. I hate the thoughts of shopping elsewhere.
The store was very clean and well kept. An awesome employee named Noelle helped me out with the dog treats. She made my shopping trip 110% better!
I love this place. Not as big a selection as larger pet stores, but the selection they have is better. Friendly employees and reliable options.
They have a wide selection of all you will need for your pet. Knowledgeable and caring staff.
This place was too cool! I love the self serving wash, they have a groomer, a vet, training classes, doggy daycare, and so much stuff for a pet. I was amazed walking in. The workers were very friendly and helpful.
The workers are so helpful with finding items and answering questions. I love this place and so does my dog! They have frozen rats of all sizes for my snakes as well!
Always friendly and willing to help!
Always friendly and helpful... been there several times..but first time that we had Buddy with us..we live about 2 hours away.. Buddy hates baths..they were booked us..but told us that we could bathe him our selves.. Gene did an awesome job.. but Buddy was not happy...
Really loved this place. It was large and welcoming. Prices were average but there was a great selection of everything for all pets.
My dog and I love this place. Kaitlyn does a great job grooming my airedale. We also get a lot of use from the do-it-yourseld doggie bath.
My dogs and I love going here. They carry a great variety of all things dog, cat, and other critters.
One improvement I would like to see is a bigger BIRD dept.
Need bigger bird supplies.
I've been frequent this establishment for over 18 years. They're always very helpful and courteous, they will take care of any questions you have. I also highly recommend the doggie daycare.
40lb bag cat litter for $6.95-$7.00 when on sale I love it, also their fish supply is renewed every Thursday. Their tanks are well kept.
This place has nearly everything you could need for. Almost every pet. And it's dog friendly! I love to bring my dog in so she can pick her own toys and treats!
I really love the bathing tubs and the staff are all very helpful and polite. I feel like the selection is limited for the size of the store but I'd go there just for the bathing tubs.
Have all the dog food brands that Petsmart doesnt. I love them AND the brand we use for our bulldog, they have punch cards for Signature brand and after 14 bags bought, 15th is free! Even the 50lb bag!
Great place if you have XXL dogs between my 3 Dobermans of 130lbs, 90lbs and 70lbs. Beds that really fit them and a great toy selection with low prices.
Only pet supply store I shop with. Prices are good and the help is always friendly. I don't recall ever having an unpleasant experience at Care-A-Lot.
Very friendly and helpful staff....
Awesome store! Go in at least 3-4 times a month getting stuff for my dog and grooming supplies for my job! Always super friendly staff and super helpful when need help with anything!
First time coming here, great place to pickup dog food. Friendly workers and great prices.
Great place, loved the dog show and meeting the vendors. The specials were very good and I will be returning there son to pick up other items for our dog Twix!
Staff are super friendly & helpful. Went in for the self serve dog bath. Great idea! Everything needed is provided for a fair price.
I've been going here since I move to Norfolk about a year and a half ago. They are absolutely amazing. Locally owned too 😊 …
Good pricing with a much better selection than Walmart.
A good selection of dog (and other pets) related products. A very helpful staff and a good location when coming from the OV area of Norfolk. They also have a vet service and doggie daycare. Of course dogs are always welcome.
It has a decent selection and the staff is friendly, but it seems like they move stuff around every other week. The lines can get pretty long when they only have one cashier on duty.
I have been going to Care-A-Lot for over 10 years. They are Always Friendly & Informative to help with any questions you may have. The Day Care Center is Outstanding. Many years ago my Vizsla Bodi came home with a Report Card. He had to be put in Time Out because he was Mounting his Friends. I laughed so hard, Still crack up,Whenn I read it & yup framed it. It's comforting to know that you can Trust your Most Precious friend with these Folks. Whom some become friends.
Very friendly and helpful staff. They stock a great variety of food and everything you need to keep your pet healthy and clean.
Love this place! Nice variety, amazing dog training program, impressive fish section. With they had diamond lite though so we could come by more often!!
Great selection and helpful staff. Clean and we'll stocked. New go-to store for supplies.
Friendly and knowledgeable staff. They have a great selection of things for your pets. And they have a self serve dog wash!
I have been taking my mini poodle there for about 3 years after a bad experience with Petco. They are always nice and the store is very clean.
Love this place. Always great deals and take both of my dogs to get their shots! Affordable pricing and friendly staff.
Very helpful staff, Derek was super awesome and advised us on which food we should try out with our new labradoodle puppy.
Great selection of products and the staff are amazingly friendly to help you find what your looking for and very helpful in helping with recommendations without being too pushy.
Excellent supply of healthy dog and cat food as well as anything else your pet(s) could possibly need. The people that work there are very friendly and knowledgeable!
Walmart failed to ship our dog kennel on time, so we were in desperate search of a 48" kennel for our next day flight. Thank you to care-a-lot pet supply for helping us track one down!!!
Best selection of ANY large Pet store in Hampton Roads. Why? Because they care about their very own local community.
Really great grooming salon. Been taking my little boy here ever since his groomer left PetSmart. Great selection of pet supplies and very affordable too
Very friendly! Staff constantly within reach for assistance if needed. Great variety of healthy pet food choices.
The best. They try so hard to offer good products. Staff is very knowledgeable. If the clerk does not know an answer, they find a more experienced person. I admire that.
Everytime ive been there the staff has gone over and beyong for me and my friend. If we have ever had a problem theyfixed it right away! The prices here are great! I recommend this place for dog stuff.
Really helpful and friendly staff, lines are never too long and they have a wide variety of grooming supplies toys, treats, dog food, collars and leashes, training supplies and much more.
Care-A-Lot pretty much has all my pet needs at good prices. It's the only place I go to get my dog's food and supplements. Y'all should go too.
Staff is friendly but find that they do not stock your regular brands of dog treats (ie: Milk Bones, DentaSticks, etc)
Clean friendly place to visit. More comfortable environment than PetSmart. Had my granddaughters with me and so many dogs to pet! Friendly staff
Love this place. Very friendly staff and always helpful. Better value for your buck.
Great place to get stuff for the pups. What more can I say? Wish my dogs were more social so I could let them visit but what do you do?
I like this store the prices are a little on the higher side but so are every other pet stores.
I go here to visit the weekend veterinarians who are very affordable...
Loved the experience here. Our dog Duke had a great time. He even walked down the isle and picked out his own toy.
I went to get the dog his vaccinations it took three and a half hours
By far the best pet supply store in the area. Prices are cheaper than Petco or PetSmart and they're locally-owned. And the vet services that they do have are great the people are super nice they really care about your pet
This was the largest pet store I have seen in the area.
Best selection of dog items around hands down, nice knowledgeable staff, great prices!
Didnt have the silk aquarium plants I wanted in stock
There are lots of choices for your pets. There is merchandise for dogs, cats, birds and fish. There were live betas on display. I enjoyed looking at the selection of dog toys.
We take our 2 small doggies to be groomed there. Nicole takes care of them and they love her. All the girls are really nice.
❤
Love care a lot! They have competitive prices compared to even online retailers. Rewards for certain products as well! I really recommend buying from here!
Pet friendly & lots of great products. Staff is very knowledgeable, but it never seems like there is enough staff on duty. Sometimes it's hard to find someone to help you.
It's like pet smart except without the prices. Maybe it doesn't have everything the big name pet stores have, but it's pretty close and usually at better prices. Friendly staff.
GREAT place for all your pets needs
Staff is amazing. This store is my go to when it comes to pet supplies. The staff always treats my dog as if he were VIP every time!
They got rid of all their fish (other than bettas) and also got rid of the best brand for fish that they sold. Other than that, I'm satisfied.
They got my cat in right away and trimmed her nails pretty quickly. By the time I walked around the store and bought a few items they were done. They were really friendly as well.
Absolutely enjoy this store.....it's an Animal Costco!
Nice and friendly ... Just wished they had cheaper prices and carried fancy feast cat food in a case. Other than that it was very nice
Very helpful and attentive staff. You can find a lot of the more specific pet items you might need that you can't find at places like Petsmart or PetCo.
Good place for most everything pets. Sadly though it caters more to dogs than other pets but they still have a pretty good selection of goodies.
I love them!! I take my fur babies here for all there vet/grooming needs
Great staff and vet clinic.
Very helpful and my pup loves shopping for her favorite bone.
Decent prices, always something on discount, & even better is they do lots of events -even if Just pictures with your pet throughout the year!
Local chain that carries everything you could need. Friendly, helpful staff. Only issue is that the registers are arranged weird, and as you walk up - it's tough to determine which one is open.
I love going to this pet store. I get a lot of food for my cats from here. Staff is always friendly.
They have a wide variety of supplies and the staff is very helpful. I went in looking for a quality, grain free food that was also cost effective for a lg dog and the employee who helped me was very knowledgeable.
Staff are friendly, knowledgeable, and the selection for dogs and cats truly rivals PetSmart, and their prices. I prefer going here for any serious purchases for my pet.
Has the best selection of pet supplies. Friendly service.

My 4 lb yorkie was diagnosed with pancreatitis. The staff at carealot know all about the foods (they must have had 20 different brands!) and helped me choose the right one based upon ingredients and knowledge of other dogs with this issue. They only had one can so I had to go back.
The reviewer below me stating differently may have had the disgruntled and now not employed worker help her.
I wish I would've caught his name, but the worker who assisted me was amazing!!! He knew what he was talking about & took the time to explain everything to me. Super CX service!!!
Very knowledgeable staff the even dug through the back room trying to find what we need which they did eventually it was somebody that have been removed from stock for a few weeks and when the weather got cold we needed the heated dog bowl they got it for us
Always great prices on dog food and great and loving daycare staff
We feel completely confident in the staff here. Our babies get lots of love and attention and have a great time when they have to stay overnight.
Best pet store. Professional staff. Purchase all my dogs supplies there. Also purchase other pet products to donate to area animal shelters. Wonderfu.staff and store
We took a trip there for the self-serve pet wash and it was everything we hoped it to be. The staff was kind and helpful and our dogs enjoyed every bit of it.
Great selection of dog and cat food. And reasonable prices. I go here every few weeks for RO water and most of my saltwater supplies as well
A nice pet store as these things go. Pet friendly, naturally. The selection is on par with comparable stores, like PetSmart, but the prices seem better.

The staff are always very helpful. There's a great selection, although sometimes their stock is extremely low or out altogether.

Bigger store, better selection and better prices than petsmart. My dog requires special food and they have an excellent price on it.
They took very good care of my dog while I was on vacation. Excellent customer services
The layout of the store is a little different but they have really cool training functions that are free.
A wonderful pet-friendly store! If you can't find it, they probably have it or can lead you in the right direction! I love Care-a-Lot😀👍 …

Great pet event this weekend. Dock Dogs
The prices are great and the fish they carrie are beautiful. I think this is my new pet store of choice,
