Paws Stop

Pretty disappointed with this place. I met one of the owners at an event last weekend and talked with him about the specific food I use for my dog. He told me he knew exactly what I was talking about, that they carried it on a regular basis and to come in. I tried to come once at 7:30 but they were already closed. I came back a second time, a bit taken back from the horrible smell, and walked around aimlessly before someone talked to me. A man led me to the Blue Buffalo section where my dog’s food was no where to be found. I was told they don’t ever order the variety I asked about and that I must have been mistaken. Now I have to drive to the other side of town for a different store. I don’t appreciate being misled just to get me in the store.

Awesome! Carries a great selection of quality products and the prices are very reasonable. The staff is friendly, helpful, and incredibly knowledgeable. Scott spent several minutes helping me pick out a new dog food to switch to– very impressed with how much he knew about the different brands. The entire staff is great! The frequent buyer programs they offer have earned me several free bags. Love the recent store changes too. New bright lighting, reorganization, kitty adoptions, etc. Love this store!

Very knowledgeable and enthusiastic staff, who can answer any question extensively. Lots of alternative options for food and other goodies. I especially like the bulk options as you can carry the treats away in your own bag or container and reduce a little bit of waste. (I would love to see a company come up with bulk dog food options some day.) I like to support independently owned businesses over chains whenever possible and this store gives me plenty of reasons to do so.

I am an Amazon fanatic. You could say I’m addicted to Amazon. I don’t even know how to enjoy a shopping experience without whipping out my phone and checking to see whether or not Amazon carries something cheaper. I will wait a couple days on shipping to buy something cheaper, rather than buy it right there and then out of convenience.
SO, when I say that I stopped buying my dog food through Amazon because Paws Stop carries it either cheaper or for the same price… that’s a big deal. I can drive 5 minutes to pick up the food, not have to wait on shipping, and be rest assured that I got a better deal.
Not only that, the staff is extremely friendly and they know their stuff! It’s a small location that can be easy to miss, but it certainly is a hidden gem. I love finding places like this because they are stocked with a lot of great items for good prices. I definitely recommend this place over going to a corporate store, like Petsmart or Petco, or worse yet, Uncle Bill’s.

Fantastic first visit! Was looking for a more economical raw diet for our 2 cats. Very knowledgeable and friendly staff who took the time to help us look and explain the differences between various options. I also found a great selection of bird seed and feeders! Highly recommend and will be back!

A friend told me to check this place out! Wow amazing pet store, on top of the fact they have to be some of the most friendly and helpful staff…

Paws Stop is pretty unassuming from the outside but there is a reason its been open for so long! Number one is customer service, followed closely by price and selection. Locally owned and operated is another big reason to check them out.
They always promptly help me out to the car with big heavy bags, no waiting around for someone to become available. Today I called and asked for a bag of feed to be set aside so I could just run in and pay (since I had my two kids with me) and they were happy to do so, I didn’t feel like a bother at all.
They go beyond the regular cat/​dog items and have a decent selection of things for hamsters, exotic birds, wildlife and my personal (and most often stop in) chicken food! Having 6 beaks to feed, we go through a 40# bag every two weeks or so and they always have it in stock. They have scratch, organic feed (starter through layer) as well as conventional feed. I am also buying my cat food and liter here also.
Prices are very competitive with big box stores (Walmart and Tractor Supply) if not even better. I can get a 50# bag of liter for $ 14.99. Wow! I am a definite customer for life!

I went to Speciality Pet Food yesterday and it was great! It is one of the few places in Indianapolis area that carries Acana & Orijen dog food. The prices are a few bucks cheaper than what I was ordering it for online. The guy even helped us carry everything out to the car. We live north of Terre Haute, I wish we had someplace like this around home. Great selection of natural and holistic pet products!
