I know I had already written a review, but I cannot stop absolutely raving about the staff! I recently came into the healthy pet as my kitty just recently got diagnosed with end-stage renal failure. Nicole completely assisted me to the lowest protein option that would be suitable for my feline. As a veterinary professional, I completely appreciate her walking through everything with me for an extensive period of time. If she's not in management, she should be! She's a leader at the HP and loved by many!

I have been looking for a better food choice for my Lucy and I felt like many pet stores are not educated on Food and the food they sell. I was so happy to find someone who knew ingredients, sourcing for those I ingredients and the purpose. This store is clean and employees were all friendly as well as the other customers. I would recommend them to someone looking for more than just a bag of food, heck if you just want a bag of food they are for you too.

I love this store! They carry several low-phosphorus cat foods that are suitable for kitties with kidney disease. My kitty likes RAWR raw food and many of the Weruva foods they have in stock. The staff here is extremely knowledgeable and friendly too.

They have a great selection of natural pet remedies and foods. The people are always so friendly. The vet who owns this store is a holistic one, and so everything sold is vetted and high quality. They also have surprisingly reasonable prices for the quality of products which they have.

A good pet store but they overcharge for everything. The same great dog food is found at another local pet store (wags) for cheaper. I have told them about this but they don't seem to care and keep raising prices. It's unfortunate as they would get all my business if they didn't price gouge their customers.

Perfect little place for my picky little critters. My 23 year old cat has a very picky appetite, these guys carry the brands he likes. Great prices and people that enjoy what they do. Thank god for places like this that actually care for our creatures and what is considered as food. Fantastic toy selection, wood slab cat houses, and anything else you could need for your furry friend. Thanks guys!

I checked this place out upon recommendation from a friend, and I was super impressed by the selection of healthy pet products carried here. They carry everything from high quality treats to top-notch dry food options, and even a selection of fresh food! The staff is very attentive and knowledgeable and is always happy to provide your pet with a little treat while you shop. I'm glad this place is around, although I wish I didn't have to drive so far to get there! I travel from Veneta, this place is so good!

I love the Healthy Pet! They have helped me time and time again, find what I need for my dogs. The staff all know about the products they sell. It is nice to talk to someone that can tell you the truth about a product. Excellent customer service and very friendly.

I love The Healthy Pet. I've been going there for almost 4 years and I refuse to go anywhere else. They have great quality cat foods there and an awesome rewards program for their customers. But the thing I love most is how nice everyone is that works there. I've never been there and not received excellent customer service. They have a customer for life in me.

This is a wonderful pet store that has my cats' favorite food (both wet and dry) and a wonderful selection of snacks, in addition to friendly staff (and often friendly dogs).

If you are looking for high quality dog, or cat food I would stop in here to see what they have. They have a great selection to chose from. I buy Orijen for my Pomeranian puppy, and it hasn't been easy locating stores in the Eugene, Springfield area that carries it. Orijen, and Acana I believe are the same company from what I have been told. So it is weird to me that you can find Acana at Petsmart, but not Orijen.

The bags look identical. The price for the puppy food is not cheap, but worth her health to me. It appears to be the same price at all of the other stores I have found it so the Healthy pet I feel is closer to me. I also bought my baby girl a new tooth brush, and tooth paste from here. She loved the paste.chewed on the brush a little and was a little mad about the brushing, but hey.

She needs to learn. I found some treats that are real freeze dried fruit, and veggie. Banana, blueberry, and sweet potato. She loves them. My girl is a crazy fruit bat as it is. I like to feed her the most natural stuff there is, and only treats that you know the ingredients. I want a healthy pet and I feel that is what you are getting when you shop here. Oh, and by the way the people were very helpful and nice.

On Friday my beloved child (Dog) was diagnosed with Lymphoma Cancer. I spent two days looking for information online of what I could do to help holistically, along with the information the Vet recommended (Chemo), and found very little validated information online. I decided to wander into The Healthy Pet and see if I could find the recommended Raw food Diet that many sources had recommended, boy was I in for a surprise! Randall came out and quickly greeted us and was full of information.

He was so patient and kind. He helped calm my fears and made me feel like I had some control over the situation. He easily understood that with our babies treatment we couldn't afford the top notch products and he helped point me to the best products in my price range. Randall spent over 45 minutes helping me figure out what was most important for her health immediately.

I was able to leave spending only 70 dollars on raw food, probiotics, omega fish oil and healthy treats. He also was nice enough to email me the directions of how to give the probiotics and raw food because he realized i was over-whelemed and not processing all the information. I will be going back to The Healthy Pet not only for the good quality food and probiotics, but mostly for Randall.

Very nice replacement of the former Flicks & Picks (despite some weirdo freaking out that I wrote down the name of the place). Where else can you get your jumbo duck meat stick? :p

Healthy Pet is the bee's knees. Every time I take my dog here, I feel like the best doggy owner in the world; he loves the treats, toys, smells, and staff (who dispense treats like candy), and I love the selection of high quality, healthy goodies that I can pick up for him and his dog friends. Our mutual favorites are the grain-free, wheat-free hot food mixes, the raw, dehydrated liver treats, the huge selection of wild-sourced jerkies, and the biscuits- in appealing flavors like duck, cherry & parmesan! (Dark secret: I may or may not have tried one or two of the treats myself. they just sounded so good :| ) If you're curious about a new treat, ask a staff member- they're always willing to give you a sample, or open a bag so you can gauge your pup's interest (which will probably be high.) The toys are also perfect for strong chewers.

My dog devastates any toy that isn't reinforced with like, 8 layers of nylon, fiber and rubber, but the stuffed animals and ropes I've purchased at Healthy Pet are still alive and well, minus a few stray fibers (occupational wear and tear). Cat owners- you're not left in the dark. The cat treats, toys and accessories here are phenomenal.

I especially love the locally made catnip hot links- not only do they come in adorable, festive fabrics, but they're filled with organic catnip that seems to hold its appeal for months. Verdict: In the words of Yelp: "Woohoo! As good as it gets!"

This is now out favorite pet store to stop in at. We know we are getting good clean treats from here and love the small and clean setup they have. Wide enough variety of toys to find anything you may want and they also have toys that engage thought in your pets! We found a fun toy you stuff with other squeaker squirrels and the dog can pull them out.

Our puppy was initially confused but now he carries this toy everywhere and loves digging out the squirrels! And the treats! Found the best treats to date! Ice had dogs all my life and we have spent a lot of money on fancy, healthy treat but these ones take the cake. No crumbs and quick crunchy rewards for the dog. Friendly staff goes a long way too and they've been so helpful and cheerful each time we have been in.

This has become my go to store for my cat. A friend of mine recommended this place because of the unique and well priced cat toys. First time there, customer service was great! I bought 3 toys for $5 which is pretty good compared to most pet stores. When I was ready to check out, the gal at the counter offered me samples to provide my cat with a healthy diet. I was pleased by the friendly atmosphere of the employees and the uniqueness of the toys.

Traveling with my cat on a 15 hours drive. Went in for calming remedy for my kitty. All the staffs are very helpful and have all my questions answered. They do not try to sell you products. I appreciate their customer service. Will go back again if I'm not moving away! Side note: Gave some calming gel for my cat less than an hour ago, she is more mellow and courageous already. Love it!

I have been giving my cat Science Diet's Senior Blend for years, since he was 10. Slowly I stared to notice a change in my cat. Puma is normally a very adamant hunter of all things, very vocal, loving and active old man but slowly he becoming a heavier, very grumpy, slow, non-playful cat. I've always felt like Starch Carbs in cat's food seemed a little silly. It's not like in nature my cat is going to go to the Daily Bagel and order himself up a bagel with salmon flavored cream cheese, so why am I feeding him something that is equivalent? It's just not natural.

The Healthy Pet has a GREAT selection of ALL meat food and foods without additives. After trying a sample of the Instinct Rabbit Meal that's what Puma and I settled on. And he's BACK. His coat has never been so healthy, he is more active than he was 5 years ago and is back to his normal weight. He loves his food. Plus because it's packed FULL of nutritional beneficial ingredients he eats less of it.

The Healthy Pet has very knowledgeable, sweet and kind people working there. You can really tell that it's their passion. Dog Owners: They even carry frozen Deep Knee Cattle Bones for your dogs munching pleasures!
