Kings Heath Pet Centre

Friendly and helpful staff, good selection of products for dogs, birds, and small pets (like rabbits or guinea pigs). Maybe since I’m a but of a cat lady I’m biased, but I feel like there’s not enough cat products in the store. No beds or toys, and only a few options for bowls or water fountains or litter trays. Still, I like them and will continue to be a customer!

I like kings Heath pet shop there always tidy and very helpful. The staff are all very polite and also helpful to there customers.

You are always guaranteed to get everything you need for your pets and birds also fish etc

Before i got my delectable hound i headed straight to Kings Heath Pet Centre for the essentials. Parking can be tricky as there is no onsite parking and York Road is quite a popular street — early on a Saturday morning or weekdays are best ive found.
The shop sells everything although i have to admit to not having looked around any part other than the dog area — i do believe that there is an area towards the back of the shop which sells small animals — ive tried to verify this by looking at their web page but this doesnt seem to be working at present.
So from a dog point of view the shop sells bedding, all sorts of food (mainly the medium and higher end stuff), toys, bones, leads, collars, harnesses, flea treatment etc etc. In fact everything that i have needed for my dog i have been able to find here. the prices can be more expensive than going online but you do get the opportunity to take you dog into the shop as well as have the help of the very friendly, knowledgeable staff. For example, before i got TJ i was wanting to get him a dog basket. Now as any dog owner knows these can get quite expensive (especially for a large dog like mine — a German Shepherd/​Malamute cross) and as i hadnt met my dog at that time (he was coming over from a rescue charity in Portugal) i wasnt quite sure what size he was so was concerned about paying lots of money for a basket and then it being too small. The people in the shop were lovely and told me to come back once id got TJ and he could try out the beds to see which one suited him! Now thats service!
So if they are as good for other pets as they are for dogs (and im assuming they are as the place is always busy with people) then id highly recommend it. And whilst you are there have a look around York Road as there are some brilliant little independent shops down there!

Large pet shop situated on York Road in Kings Heath.
When I lived in Kings Heath I had a cat and a guinea pig and often visited the Pet Centre. There is a wide range of products for each type of pet, all of my cat and guinea pig needs were well catered for. The staff are friendly and helpful and the prices are reasonable.
My main reason for visiting the pet centre was always to see the cute animals, especially the furry little bunny rabbits! *Awww* So cute! There is always a large parrot who occasionally gives people a fright but suddenly squawking or flapping his wings as you go past.
Any excuse to go in and I’m there!

Every time I come into Kings Heath Pet Centre I am amazed by the selection and things on offer for my cats.
I had a lot of trouble with my kitten as when he arrived in my home he had fleas. I freaked out and ran down to the pet centre to ask for help on this unpleasant issue. The staff were friendly and did not try to oversell products in an attempt to increase their profit margins. I was sold a spray, a flea comb and a solution to rub into my kitten’s skin and fur. Two days later and my kitten is flea free. Thank You Kings Heath Pet Centre.
They also have goods for all types of pets and animals, ranging from dogs to your more exotic pets. It is also a great place to bring the kids if you have any. The Cockatoo is one of my main reasons for coming here on un-​cat related issues. He/​She will quite happily mimic your words if you don’t mind looking a little bit silly in front of the other customers.
Kings Heath Pet Centre also sells your regular supplies such as litter and food pouches. Their prices are competitive with the larger supermarkets that have the pleasure in buying in vast stock quantities.
If you own a pet and live in the vicinity, then Kings Heath Pet Centre is the place for you.

As the owner of a greyhound who won’t get out of bed for anything less than a pigs ear, I am always on the lookout for a decent pet shop and Kings Heath Pet Centre is up there with the best of them. Although I was immediately drawn to the rabbits at the back of the store (very cute) and a little distracted by the sheer array of gruesome looking doggie treats — it’s the other stuff they sell that impressed. Flea and dog worming tablets are cheap here; they hold ‘Burns’ dog food (another favourite in this house) and deliver locally. There’s a massive selection of squeaky toys plus snazzy collars and leads. They seem to cater for all kinds of pets — there’s a small exotic fish section and the place itself is pretty massive. There’s also a handsome looking parrot that seemed happy enough standing guard by the guinea pigs and other fluffy creatures. And Dave liked his pigs ear and cheese and beef sticks — so a thumbs up all round.

I have two dogs so I’m in this place quite often. They stock a good range of dog foods and other essentials, as well as treats and additional stuff such as beds, blankets, leads, muzzles — pretty much everything you need. They also stock a brand of dog food called Nature Diet which is our go-​to food for our mutts.
From what I can gather looking around the place the same could be said for cat, rabbit, reptile and bird owners as they have a large shop floor area and it’s well stocked with whatever your particular pet would need. It’s always busy, so that’s a good sign, I would suggest.
They are pretty reasonable on prices — certainly on a par with supermarkets and the larger chain stores (Pets At Home, etc). The staff are friendly and will offer to help you to your car with your purchases if, like me, you tend to buy in bulk. They accept cards and cash.
My son likes to visit the shop because he can see the animals on display — I suspect many local parents, whether pet owners or not, take their kids here for a look around as it’s practically a mini zoo. There are rabbits, hamsters, rats, fish, tortoises and various reptiles on display and my boy likes to say hello. There is also a large parrot that lives in the shop and will, from time to time, say a few words.
I recommend this place as either an outlet to get your pet essentials or as somewhere to take the kids!
