Adam was so super helpful and kind! He not only helped me understand when my cats’ food would be stocked but also set me up for an easier time in the future! The people that work here are always so cool and truly want to help. Thank you!

I shop for my cat’s food and needs here and the service is consistently excellent. They have membership discounts, and the prices are so much better than most places.
All your needs! Pet safe ingredients! Great self wash for dogs in the back of the store!
Love this place! The reoccurring food order is so helpful to me because I never have to worry about my Matzah running out. He also loves his blue sling bag, very comfy for the both of us. Love that each time I’m purchasing litter for my Ruby, it goes toward a free bag, eventually. Recently fostered a dog named Lola…
This is my dog Rocky's favorite place. He loves walking over there every single day to say hi to his friends (the amazing staff) and to get a little treat. Everyone is super duper nice and they have just about everything you might need for your furry friend. The staff all really love animals. You can tell. So can…
Very helpful at both East Hollywood and Grove locations. We are doing dog training with Rollin currently and that’s great as well.

I’ve been shopping here since the place opened. I got my 6 year old Pearl kitten milk and bottles from her when she was 3 weeks and this place fed her till I went away to college so she is made of like 90% urban pet food. She loves to play, but is quite indifferent towards toys. Today, I went in to get her regular favorites. I was checking out the toys and put my cans on the counter and remarked to a man behind the counter with long black hair that Pearl isn’t usually interested in toys but I am always tempted to get them for myself. He grabbed a toy from the box on the counter, handed it to me, told me it was on the house, and if she would like any toy, it will be this one. I put the Urban pet bag in a grocery bag and before I could even unpack, pearl was rifling through my new purchases. That was about 15 minutes ago and she is still rolling around pouncing on and playing with the toy I was given. Thank you, Urban pet for keeping pearl happy healthy fed over the last half decade plus.

Love this place! The reoccurring food order is so helpful to me because I never have to worry about my Matzah running out. He also loves his blue sling bag, very comfy for the both of us. Love that each time I’m purchasing litter for my Ruby, it goes toward a free bag, eventually. Recently fostered a dog named Lola and was able to walk in and out with a necessary collar. I love supporting a small business and tell a lot of my clients/friends to visit! Cute pet sweaters, wide selection of cat and dog dishes, water fountains, carriers, birthday treats, individual treats, toys, vitamins, diets, etc. You name it, they most likely have it! Friendly staff, clean store, large parking lot. See y’all next time.
I visited The Urban Pet and had an excellent experience shopping for pet supplies. The store had a welcoming atmosphere and an impressive selection of products for dogs, cats, birds, reptiles, and other small animals. Everything was neatly organized, making it easy to browse and find exactly what I needed. What stood out most was the quality and variety of pet food, treats, toys, and accessories available. The staff were knowledgeable and happy to provide recommendations based on my pet's needs. Their genuine passion for animals made the shopping experience feel more personal than a typical retail store. The store was clean, well-stocked, and pet-friendly, creating a comfortable environment for both pets and owners. I also appreciated the additional services and community involvement that help make it a trusted destination for local pet owners. Overall, The Urban Pet is a fantastic place for pet lovers looking for quality products, helpful service, and a welcoming atmosphere. I would definitely return for future pet supplies and recommendations.
nice place kinda expensive tho
This is my dog Rocky's favorite place. He loves walking over there every single day to say hi to his friends (the amazing staff) and to get a little treat. Everyone is super duper nice and they have just about everything you might need for your furry friend. The staff all really love animals. You can tell. So can Rocky! If a day goes by when I try to walk Rocky in a different direction, I definitely hear about it from him. He wants to visit them every day! Attached is a photo of Rocky asking me when we're going back to the pet store.
Very helpful at both East Hollywood and Grove locations. We are doing dog training with Rollin currently and that’s great as well.
Great staff! Belen was wonderful, took the time to help me get my buddy Frank a great harness! Thanks!
