Best pet-supply stores
Seattle is home to a growing number of shops just for pets. Whether you're looking for a unique toy or a top quality food, these specialty pet supply stores stock items that will keep Fido and Patches happy and healthy. Don't see your neighborhood shop listed here? Check out our complete list of pet supply stores.
All the Best Pet Care (Queen Anne/Seattle Center)
All The Best stocks everything you need to raise a healthy pet — natural food and nutritional supplements dry, wet and raw, a terrific selection of leashes and toys, and homeopathic flea remedies.
Bark Natural Pet Care (Ballard/Crown Hill)
Bark is little short of a four-legged nexus, with its terrific selection of "human-quality" dog and cat food, nifty pet toys, cool beds and leashes and fresh-baked canine treats.
Belltown Feed & Seed (Belltown)
True to its name, the shelves of this independent pet boutique are literally packed with food and supplements for healthy birds, dogs, cats and other domestic animals.
Buster & Sullivan (University/Montlake)
Buster & Sullivan is the, ahem, pet project of Seattle native Chelsea Cicourel and her daughters, Sydney and Courtney. With two Southern California stores (one in star-studded Malibu, the other in Manhattan Beach), the Cicourel family has already made a name for itself outfitting celebrity canines.
Crown Hill Pet Supply (Ballard/Crown Hill)
The shop's assortment of all-natural, raw and free-range foods puts to shame every can of processed pet slop available in your local supermarket.
A Dog's Dream (Georgetown)
Georgetown's new pet-supply shop is a bright and airy place with a comfortable couch, a few hundred Polaroid photos of happy dogs and a peerless selection of all-natural foods and attractive (and environmentally conscious) pet toys and accessories.
Mes Amis (Queen Anne/Seattle Center)
Located two blocks from Trader Joe's in Queen Anne, this pet boutique stocks premium food, bakery treats and pet accessories.
Mud Bay (Greenwood) (Greenwood/Phinney Ridge)
This Olympia-based regional chain offers a selection of natural and raw foods that is pretty much without peer.
Next to Nature (West Seattle)
In Next to Nature, West Seattle boasts one of the best and biggest pet boutiques in the Puget Sound.
Pet Elegance (Columbia City/Rainier Valley)
The shop boasts a terrific selection of natural dog and cat foods, grooming supplies, accessories and toys, as well as full-service dog and cat grooming services.
Petapoluza (Fremont)
Pet stores are springing up like toadstools in Seattle, and the newest shop in Fremont seems to acknowledge that trend in its name. As is the rage (and rightly so), Petapoluza offers natural pet foods, plus plenty of colorful, fun toys and all manner of pet advice.
Railey's Leash & Treat (Fremont)
If dogs and cats had mad money to spend, they'd almost certainly blow it all at Railey's Leash & Treat.
Scraps Dog Bakery (Eastlake/Lake Union)
Scraps offers all-natural, highly nutritional pet foods, freshly baked treats and boutique accessory items.
Three Dog Bakery (Downtown)
Humans may even be tempted by some of the healthy dog treats here, made fresh on the premises using all natural ingredients.
Urban Beast (Eastlake/Lake Union)
Urban Beast takes the unattractive necessities of owning a pet in the city -- food and water bowls, carriers, beds and scoops for picking up droppings -- and makes them fit in with even the most stylishly-appointed of condos and apartments.
