"I'm a new customer of this store and I will absolutely be back"
"Poor customer service"
"Great little Pet Shop"
"Glad to have stopped by here all those years back"
Another gem within the Ogden area. This store is honestly so much more than a simple store, it is our animals source of quality food and supplies, and the life blood of the neighborhood. For 3 years now, I have been consistently buying all my pet supplies from Dexter's and no one else. They have the best prices, the most helpful and friendly staff. Why did I start shopping at Dexter's? It's this simple. I am disabled. I cannot lug him heavy cat litter and cat food from the grocery store. A friend of mine would always get food and litter delivered from Amazon, so I thought to myself, there must be a local option.. I looked into it, and lo and behold I found Dexters. Who does delivery, so I can support a local establishment, and not attempt to lift heavy bags of litter which causes me pain . Dexter's provides the necessities for my cats and my snake. I simply couldn't get by without them.. I highly recommend Dexter's to anyone. In the neighborhood or not.
I'm a new customer of this store and I will absolutely be back. I live about 30 minutes away from them and decided to venture out after checking out their online store and seeing how much of a difference their prices were on toys vs the standard chain pet stores I go to in the city. It didn't disappoint! They ARE very affordable. I can buy KONG, Jolly etc. toys now in a large or XXL size for what would usually be the price of a small/medium at those other stores. They also offer delivery around Calgary, not sure if it's permanent, hope it is, and I'd love to use it for restocking on purchases. The only downside maybe for some, is their dog toy variety doesn't have many plush like toy options. They have many other kinds of toys and quality brands other stores in Calgary don't carry. Make the drive! Order online! Your wallet and your pet will thank you.
Poor customer service. Little knowledge of how to let a customer leave happy or at least satisfied with efforts. If a product isn't in stock, or there are differences between what the website and what the store carry, the answer should always be, "you know what? I'm sorry. Can we order that in for you? Would you like to try a similar product?" How hard is it to problem solve with a customer? Instead, the response I received was indignant and defensive with little ownership over the problem. Perhaps it's because I'm a POC. I won't shop here again.
Great little Pet Shop. You get top qualify food for your fur babies & excellent service. My mom is older and its hard for her to get around even though she is a 15 minute walk from this store. The delivery service is awesome and every time they stop by they have a treat for my Mom's dog. They also provide better quality food then your large big chain stores and price difference is not that big of deal (especially considering you want to keep you pet healthy). Her dog is 12, a Boxer and going on strong!
Glad to have stopped by here all those years back. The people running this joint are the people you would ask to watch your animals while taking a trip- if they were your friends that is. The store is stocked full with great products, all high quality and great value. My dog and cat love the kibble I get here for them, and it's by far a better value than a big box store because their loyalty program is more of a profit share program for their customers. Couldn't recommend this place more.
Aladdin's Cave for pets - Dexter's sells EVERYTHING you could want for ANY pet. At the same price, or cheaper, than any supermarket. They do the most amazing special offers - it's worth popping in just to see what's on offer this week... Drew will get anything in for you, and give you a latte and a hot chocolate for your kids. And a treat for your dog. We go in the cold weather as an outing for the whole family, including the dogs!
What can I say about Dexters wow incredible owner, incredible staff. I first went into Dexters for some dog food for our big girl and after talking with the staff and owner I came out more knowledgeable about food and dog treats, they also were wonderful and helped our girl with bowel problems. I highly recommend anyone shopping for pet food and supplies to check these guys out you won’t regret it!!!
I'm a new customer at Dexter's, and had a great first experience. I used their delivery service (which was free) so I made sure I placed a big enough order to justify it. Their prices were much better than the stores closer to me, and their selection was amazing. Their customer service was excellent and delivery was prompt (next business day). They definitely have my future business.
We always shop here for our pet needs, love that we can now get out dog food delivered for free on a regular schedule, that's been something we struggle with so this service has been a game changer! Great prices, excellent loyalty programs and festive promos make this pet shop the best in the City. The shop owner Drew is also amazing and kind and someone we love to see succeeding.
This is the best pet shop in the city. No contest. Today I won a candy cane bully stick for our pup and I can’t even remember the last time a big chain store did something like that. If you live in the south and work downtown this is such a great location to pop into on the way home. They have everything. And the people are wonderful. This is local shopping at its best!
What a great experience. I input my order at 13:26 today, realized I made an error. Called the store at 13:29, talked to an incredibly nice and understanding person on the phone. 13:32 my order was fixed (substituted product)...order was at my front door at 15:36...1000 thank you's Dexters from me and Boswell (a very excited Frenchie who watched me open the box)!!
Dexter's is the best! I have been going here exclusively for many years and actually didn't realize I hadn't reviewed it before now. I love the selection, they carry almost everything imaginable, and I know I'm getting the fairest price on quality products. Supporting a true community, independent store just makes me feel all that much better about shopping here.
Dexters has become my one stop dog shopping shop! They have everything you can imagine from raw food to dry kibble, Treats and toys for all kinds of pets. They have dog stuff cat stuff rabbit stuff, you name it they have it. Drew and his staff are absolutely fantastic. I love the idea that he is local and part of our community even more reason to visit Dexter's!!
I just discovered this store, and I am so impressed. Extraordinary variety. Great prices. They had PlaqueOff for cats which is almost impossible to find. It is a bit of a drive for me, but I will come here every time. Friendly service. Most importantly, there is a bulldog sleeping at the cash desk. This is pretty much the only reason I need to come back.
Love this place. Came recommended by local rescue I got 2 of my dogs from. Love that its local and independant. Prices are amazing for it being an independant business. I dont live close by so when I do go to Dexters & Bring my dogs in to help me shop :P I always end up leaving with a huge bag of food, treats, toys for amazing price. Thank you Dexters
Best pet shop for miles around. They do EVERYTHING any pet could need - and if they don't, they'll get it in for you. Friendly and fun to visit, always a treat for both the dogs and the humans. GREAT DEALS - competitive with mainstream supermarket prices, don't know how they do it, actually. Maybe through word of mouth popularity, like this review?
There's a great selection of toys and food/treats! The reason for the 3 stars is every time I've come here, the staff have been kind of.. rude and unapproachable. I am by no means someone who usually complains about these things, but it was uncomfortable. I will go back and try again, but from the few times I've been there, this is my experience.
Very cool establishment. All the animals are very friendly and more so than your average establishment like Petland or Petsmart. And they had exactly what we were looking for. The staff are very friendly and helpful. Their prices are quite competitive and lower than most pet stores. I would definitely recommend them for all of your pet needs.
Love this store! They have such an amazing selection of quality pet food and supplies. They have a great rewards program so if you are loyal and buy all your pet food here it literally pays off!! During the holidays they had a Christmas tree and were giving customers gifts for their pets. Support local and shop at Dexter's.
Great experience. The staff were all super helpful and knowledgable without being pushy. Prices were also great and we got a very good deal on a dog bed. I will be going here for anything pet related from now on, and you should too :). They also have a points/cashback system which is an added bonus. Check them out!
Dexter,s is a local pet store named after his dog Dexter who is in the store lounging around. His prices are bar non the best. Plus you get reward points. I'm not entirely sure how many points to redeem stuff. Gotta ask the owner. He is super friendly, very knowledgeable and I love buying my Bailee,s treats there.
Took a chance and visited the store for the first time today and it did not disappoint! Prices were very fair and the lowest I have seen compared to other pet shops. Great variety and assistance from Drew and another gentlemen today. Very happy with our purchase and will definitely return for our future pet needs!
This is a fantastic pet store. The owner, Drew is a very nice person that really cares about quality pet products for great prices. The staff are very helpful and knowledgeable on everything from allergy shampoos, indestructible toys, to top quality pet food and treats! My go to pet store!
Nice pet shop with slightly cheaper prices for certain things (dog chew sticks) than other places. Also get 5% discount if it's your first time there. Additionally their loyalty gives you your 11th bag of dog food free. Probably our favourite place to buy things for our dog.
Drew and his employees are very warm. We went to get guidance about raw food and Drew explained everything thoroughly and offered treats to our dog. He listened carefully and understood the requirements for selecting the right food. Looking forward to visiting again!
Great little pet shop. There prices are average like most small pet stores. Great customer service. We even got a free bag of treats for it being our first time in. They cater to all different types of pets from fish, hamsters, hedgehogs, dogs, cats and much more.
Absolutely love this little local family run pet store! They have tonnes of Canadian brand foods and pet accessories. They are super friendly even brought all my items to my car for me. They sell our favorite Alberta made dog/cat food brands Acana and Origins!
Best pet store around! Drew and his staff are awesome to deal with and they have a fantastic selection of healthy pet foods and products. If they don't have what you are looking for he gets it in for you! Love Dexter's we don't shop anywhere else for our pets
Excellent neighborhood pet supplies store! Doesn't have all the bells and whistles like the big box pet stores, but it has stuff you need for your fur babies! Plus, the owner and staff really know their products and what's best to match up for your 'kids'.
This has to be my favorite pet store, the owner is so genuinely nice and you can definitely tell that he cares most about you and your pet and the free gifts and festive decoration at Christmas was outstanding. Prices are great and selection is very good.
The owner and staff are incredible, every time we go in he gives our pup free treats and he's very knowledgeable about the products. He actually takes an interest in our dog. Love the service and hospitality, it'll be our only store we go to from now on.
Support local! These guys carry Canadian brands and are really personable and friendly. Plus, you get money back with every purchase that you can use toward your next purchase - we've already managed to get $30! We were just there earlier
I love this place! I buy my Oxbow supplies here and the prices are cheaper than PetSmart and PetLand. I love how they have big enclosures for *most* of their animals. Only complaint is that they're selling a gerbil in a tiny cage and a
Dexter's is great! They're so helpful, have lots of different stock and are definitely fair in pricing. They also have a loyalty program where you get 10% off which is helpful! It's nice to support local family run businesses as well.
Super helpful . I got a harness for my big dog it was too big I switched it easily. Also got some dog CBD. Free treat samples and served with a smile! Love to support local shops this is a good one! Got a litter box for 15 bucks !
We do most of our shopping for our dog here. There is a great selection of dog food/ treats and Drew is always available to help you out. They have great prices and you get 8% back on each purchase. Plus you can meet Dexter (he's
They carry kitten milk replacement at $10+ cheaper than any other store. The prices are insanely good here, great selection and fantastic customer service. A bit of a drive to get here but definitely worth it. I will be back :)
Really reasonable prices and great people here. Shop isn’t a huge warehouse but I think that’s the charm of it. They’ll have what you need and give you great advice along the way. There definitely earned my business.
Been going to this shop for a little while. He keeps a great selection of quality products and high quality foods. Happy to allow orders for us as we buy frozen raw food in bulk. And he had a great rewards program.
Wow, what a great pet store. Lots to choose from. Great selection of premium brands at a fantastic price. Definitely worth driving to and checking out. Highly recommend and will definitely return for the savings.
Some of the best prices and selection in the whole city! They have so many products! We used the Shine tag machine and made our dog a new custom name tag! Very neat tool to have in store! Friendly, helpful staff!
It was my first time shopping here , I was so impressed that they carried my specialty dog food. The staff was very friendly and really helpful. I highly recommend Dexters for all your dog or cat food needs.

Dexter's Pet Shop is very affordable and with a great rewards system. The staff are friendly and always willing to help. I don't mind driving out a little further to get my pet's necessities from here.
Such a lovely store with lovely employees! Drew was so kind to my friend and I and offered our pups treats. Has a great loyalty program and amazing prices. Definitely worth the drive. See you soon.
Owner never greets his customers nor does he talk at all. Very unwelcoming and over priced! Been there 5 times and thought maybe he had an off day. Seems everyday is an off day
I’m impressed by the quality and variety of dog food Dexter carries. Kelsey is very knowledgeable, pleasant and helpful. Love Garreth, such a sweet puppy ❤️
