Paws On the Avenue

Great selection of toys, food and bowls. Everyone here is always so nice and extremely helpful. You can even adopt a kitten here. We are the selection that they have is top of the line and it’s all really nice stuff. I definitely prefer this over a Petsmart. Their location is right on the Avenue and you will have to choose street parking. I love this pet store and have been going here for almost 15 years. Highly recommend.

I found their cat foods to be surprisingly competitively priced, and even cheaper than online in some instances. The staff is knowledgeable, very friendly, and helpful. It makes supporting this local business a no brainer!

1st experience at Paws and it won't be our last. Very knowledgeable employees! Especially McKayla! Adopted kitten 😸 💕 Rex, "bubba" for a Christmas present to a secret someone. The store has a good selection yet not overwhelming! Nice specialty items which I like.

Really nice store. Staff and owner were exceptional, very kind and helpful. We adopted a kitten that was there from PB County Animal Care. We waited a few days to bring her home so she could get her shots. They were very accommodating and took wonderful care of her. They were very helpful with recommendations for food, etc. Highly recommend them!

I love a locally owned business and this is a great one catering to your beloved four footed family members. This Lake Ave staple turned 20 last year.

Paws on the Avenue is for the pet owner who wants to take better care of their pet. They stock higher quality products at lower prices. They carry everything you need from food bowls, bakery treats, collars, harnesses, and toys. They even carry items for pet lovers like greeting cards and tee shirts.

A reason to pick this store over the big chain stores is that in addition to products, owner Carolyn Clore also offers services like pet adoption and training classes. She films informational videos so you can be a better pet owner. At this store you can get personalized advice regarding what is best for your pet from a trusted source. They even have a chip scanner so you can bring a lost pet in to have it scanned. I love supporting small businesses like this where you can get real help and advice. Your pet will be happier and healthier and you will be keeping your money in the community.

We love Paws On The Avenue for our Golden Doodle. We have purchased numerous harnesses and leashes. It is Pearl's favorite place to pick out her toys. Her 'racoon ball', the first one picked, is still her favorite

We love this place. They have the nicest employees, an impressive assortment of merchandise including hand-made dog cookies, high-quality food and treats, fun leashes and shirts. We started shopping here when Carolyn first opened. We just bought the hand-made, decorated cookies to celebrate one of our dog's birthday. Both of our dogs loved the cookies (and one dog is picky).

Best Pet Supplies and food selection in the area !!!!! Great customer service and well stocked store!

I love everything about this little shop, I have been a client for 10+ years and love stopping by to pick up things for our pups!

Never have any issues, AND our animals food is always in stock. Amazingly helpful staff... who are becoming family! We love this place- our place!

I really love this shop beyond their kindness of the staff. Their knowledge of their products and recommendations are on point. I definitely feel that my cat has lived longer beyond my doctor's expectation, because of the food and nutrition that they have recommended for my cat. My cat almost died and they recommended food for her recovery. My cat wasn't supposed to last 2 months after her surgery, it's been more than 2 years. I cannot say enough about how good this place is and how much they care for their clients. I bring my cat to visit and everyone loves her. They are all animal lovers of all types. And over time they have really become a neighborhood store. They have Kitties 😺 for adoption (so cute). I would always recommend Paws on the Avenue! ♥

Update: I have to say that through environmental emergencies, neighborhood crisis, and pet virus and medical concerns; PotA has been great with discounts, pet food/toy drives, and tax-free purchases! (Not to mention Manufacturer/Brand deals.) They often have pop-up vendor visits... Like no-anesthesia dental care.

The staff always alerts me to sales and discounts on items. And correct me on sales when I get it wrong. So that I'm sure to get the best prices;love that they care!
So grateful!

Love this store! Quality food selections and so much to offer for you fur baby. The staff is very nice and helpful too. This is my new go to spot for all things I need for my dog.

As a pet sitter I demand the very best in pet food nutrition and supplements Paws on the Avenue delivers what the big box stores cannot - customer service and nutrition and care for your pets they are focused on helping us keep our Healthy Pets healthy!!

I learned of this store while looking for some food I wanted to give my dog (a rottweiler) without having the least idea of what to do. I called them and they asked me to stop by so they could explain better and give me different opinions. I was taken aback by their knowledge and friendliness. But what struck me the most was they just didn't push me to buy based on fears of what I was feeding my dog with, nor talking bad about the products I was using or places I was going to before I stepped inside their store. That's important for most [dog] parents because there's an aggressive competition out there and the way to earn the customer is vicious. I am happy to have found a place that always has the food I need for my dog and that I was advised properly. I just know Eric (the manager) by name but everyone else I've met there has been phenomenally excellent at their job. The store is not close to my house but worth all the travel.

Caroline and Gabby give personalized care! I know they care about my pups!

Finally found dog food my super picky pup loves--thank you so much for recommendations!

Love this local shop! Staff are always welcoming, helpful and informative. They have a great selection of everything from dog toys, bowls, treats, food, collars, leashes, supplements and more

Just got a pit bull mix puppy 5 days ago. came into this store just to look around and came out with so much knowledge. the staff is so sweet and extremely helpful. such an amazing cute little store

I was looking for a new food for my sensitive cats. They were extremely helpful, and gave me a sample to try to see if my picky cat would eat it. My cats love their new food. Love this place! I highly recommend them.

Came in while on vacation here. The lady that helped me was very sweet. I was desperate for a new dog food since my dog reacts to so many. She took time to educate me on what many dogs react to and then she told me that she would provide me samples of different foods so that I could have my dog try before buying. She even made sure non of the samples had ingredients my dog has reacted to in the past.
