My dog seriously loves this range of food. He clears the bowl immediately which is highly unusual for him. He had zero reaction to swapping over to the range and I definitely plan to continue buying... See more

Thrilled with my x-small K9 Sport Sack Air 2 for my 2.3kg papillon when I’m out on my bike and wondering around town. It’s a very comfortable and lightweight way to carry him, while knowing he’s delighted to be joining me, rather than left on his own.

Quality product, good value, great customer service and healthy for my cat!

Wow! What unbelievable customer service! I placed my order, and within two hours it was shipped and arrived by lunchtime the next day! The vet has recommended a specific diet for one of my senior cats, who is vomiting regularly and has lost a little weight, but nothing significant has shown up in her blood tests. Both of my cats' health has improved immeasurably in recent years by giving them high-quality hypoallergenic cat food, their coats shine, they usually are a good weight, and healthy, except recently one of them has been vomiting frequently for no apparent reason, so from my 1st order on 15/02/26 we have been giving her only The Pet Experience dry food (chicken) to see if it helps relieve these issues. The vet suggested we try it for 6-8 weeks and see if there is any improvement. Update: A month later. My cat is so much better and definitely more lively. We used to have 1-2 days a week when she was constantly sick over a period of 24 hours, but she has only been mildly sick twice since having this food. The vet has suggested it may take up to 8 weeks to reduce any inflammation so I will report back again in 4 weeks time.

Very, very happy with The Pet Experience for delivering a quality product and good value for money. Thank you!

My dog seriously loves this range of food. He clears the bowl immediately which is highly unusual for him. He had zero reaction to swapping over to the range and I definitely plan to continue buying it now I've found something he enjoys so much.

The team behind the brand are also very knowledgeable and friendly. I got some great advice in store before purchasing which makes me confident I've made the right choice for my dog.

What a wonderful human experience

What a wonderful human experience! I needed advice about my dog's diet and Cormac responded very quickly with a kind, helpful reply. I have since ordered some food from their web site and it arrived well packaged and in super-quick time with a lovely welcoming message. Thank you, The Pet Experience, you have two new fans, me and Tilly!

Fantastic knowledge & Service

Fantastic independent pet store. Incredibly knowledgable about pet behaviour and nutrition as well as stocking a huge range of different products. If you need help on what to feed, I cannot recommend them highly enough as they are experts in their field whilst being friendly and approachable.

Thank you Cormac for all your amazing…

Thank you Cormac for all your amazing help and advice. Our black lab puppy had a constant upset stomach and was very poorly. Thankfully a chance visit to The Pet Experience, and some extremely good advice from Cormac, she is now a happy girl with no upset stomach. The Teepee working puppy has put pay to all her stomach problems, delivery is excellent and very prompt. So once again a big thank you to Cormac and the lovely staff.

Excellent customer care

Our order didn’t arrive and it was declared “lost”by DHL. I contacted Cormac to see if he could help by asking DHL about it. He did, and he sent us a new order at no cost to ourselves, absolutely fantastic customer care and outstanding products.
Highly recommend

Teepee Grain Free Dog Food!

Teepee Grain Free Dog Food!

I went into ‘The Pet Experience’ a few years ago now, as I wanted to change the food my Golden Retriever was on, she (Lyra) had started to leave her food in her bowl, and her coat was looking dull.

The staff recommended Teepee Grain Free, and they even gave me a few samples to try. Well, as I said that was a couple of years ago now, and honestly Lyra still absolutely LOVES her food! She is so excited every single breakfast and dinner time, and she never leaves anything in her bowl! Her coat looks lovely and she’s a very happy girl… which makes me a very, very happy customer too!

I just wanted to thank you for your advice and wonderful service…
You are ALL always very helpful when I come in, and it is very appreciated. 😊 x x x

Amazing customer service.

We came to your shop today for the first time after being recommended by a friend. Our dog was absolutely horrendous on her previous harness so we spoke to one of the ladies for advice and she was really helpful and helped us find a perfect alternative to a harness and recommended a rope lead with a halti. Very great experience and will definitely be visiting again.

Puppy Crate

I went in to look at dog crates as our new puppy had had two bad nights in the canvas style crate we were using. Within minutes of speaking to Cormack it was quite clear the information we had gathered from the internet was causing the issue. My wife called in later in the day and bought the recommended crate and bed with more guidance from Cormack. She set it up straight away and our puppy was immediately happier and settled really well last night. I am sure it is early days and there will be other nighttime issues to overcome but with Cormack's help we woke this morning to a happy and calm puppy and that is amazing. Thank you so much.

Hi Andrew,
Thank you very much for leaving your 5 Star rating and your detailed review! It is very much appreciated and always good to hear that we are getting it right for our customers.

I am also delighted to hear that your new recruit has settled well and you all had a much better night's sleep!

I'm looking forward to meeting him when he has had his jabs and is ready to come to the shop for a treat or two! ;-)
See you soon,
Cormac.
