PetMAC

Awesome store with very knowledgeable, friendly staff. Lots of high quality products. The adoptable feline fuzzbutts roaming around are the best part.

everyone is very helpful in this store and if they don’t have what you want they order it and then call you. Stephanie K.

This was a great store, bright, roomy, cheery. Good quality products. Staff was helpful and informative. The store recently moved around the corner into a dark, cramped location hidden behind Graffiti’s façade. (Why?) It’s difficult to locate anything (though it’s obvious there is less inventory than before) and the staff seems to prefer hanging out behind the counter, which is stuck at the back of the store. The best thing at PetMAC is visiting the kittens. It’s seems the place is on its last legs, which is too bad.

I love you Pet Mac! What more can you say about a store that has wonderful kitteh-​s roaming the grounds when they aren’t relaxing in the sun drenched kitteh towers in the windows. The employees are pet lovers and they welcome on leash dogs in the store – which encourages me to walk there with my pooch. Knowledgable staff will get down on the floor with you and your pooch to try to wrestle them into a doggie sweater. Please, never change, Pet Mac!

So far, so good! I only had ten minutes on the meter to check out PetMac, which I was referred to by my hometown pet food store for a particular type of food for my pretty kitty.
Little Girl has a sensitive stomach, and can’t eat anything with grain. While at my parent’s house, I tried out a new food, Acana, and was told I could pick it up here at PetMac.
First impression: teeny tiny itty bitty!
But, they do well on space here. Everything is packed in pretty tight, and I was there when they were unloading a shipment, but they were very courteous of me browsing in their way. (Oops, sorry!)
When I picked up the food I wanted to try in a new flavor, the woman asked if my cat had eaten Acana before. When I explained that yes, she seems to like it, but would try to «cover» the fish flavored food, she said that the chicken was another neutral scented food that would be much gentler on her stomach than other foods.
At checkout, the same woman (who turns out to be the coordinator with Homeward Trails rescue) explained to me their participation with the program and that they often have cats in store for adoptions and are always looking for volunteers, donations or fosters. Hmmm, verrry interesting…
Anyway, I am keeping this little shop in mind. It is super close to home, and if this flavor of Acana works for Kitty, I will be back. =)

PetMAC is THE place to go for all natural pet food. There is a big selection of healthy/​organic/​high quality food, treats, toys, and other supplies. The staff is extremely knowledgeable and can advise about your pet’s individual needs.
They were established in partnership with Homeward Trails animal rescue group, a non-​profit. A portion of all sales goes directly to saving homeless animals, so you are shopping with a mission here! They also hold dog and cat adoption events on a regular basis (you can view the schedule at
) and accept donations of dog/​cat items, toys, food/​medicine, dog crates/​cat carries, towels etc. Call them for more info if you want to donate items.
It’s great to have a local store of this quality that does so much good. I wish more local businesses would follow PetMAC’s lead!

When you realize that Science Diet and Iams are veterinarian-​endorsed poison for your pets, get your pet food here. The ladies are very knowledgeable about the products they sell, and they offer the best selection of quality pet food in the area. (Yes, even better than Green Pets.) If they don’t have it, they can get it.
Plus your purchase helps support their adoption and rescue program, which provided me with a furry source of endless joy (so I’m a little biased).

I stopped in at PetMac today because I was in the neighborhood and in need of cat food. The woman who was working was very knowledgeable, attentive, and helpful, without being pushy. I am guessing she was the owner of the store. When she rang me up I didn’t even have a chance to ask about a case discount before she told me that if I bought two more cans I could get the 5% case discount. She also told me about the loyalty rewards program – after you’ve spent $ 250 there your next purchase is 10% off. Not the biggest reward, perhaps, but better than nothing and better than any of the other quality pet stores in town that I’ve been to! I thought the prices were good and I also like that the store was simple and unpretentious while the foods were quality (as in healthy) brands. Even though it’s a couple miles from home I’m definitely going to keep it in mind next time I need pet supplies or food!

This place is exactly what you want in your local pet store. Its small, but there is lots of great stuff. The woman who owns the place was at the register and had lots of information about fostering and adopting pets, whats healthy for my kitty, and pretty much everything else i needed. Also, she gave me a bunch of free treat samples. I’m just psyched it is so close to my house.

Thanks, Unilocal!Thanks for making me aware of this great little store in Tenleytown, not too far from my home.
While I did not get to meet the owner, the guy working today was very nice and knowledgeable. PetMac has high quality dog and cat food at non-​inflated prices. While they may not carry every top brand, they are more than happy to order it for you.
I got my guy his favorite treat (really a bribe to get his insulin shot over with quickly): raw meat medallions. They only carry the small (12ct) bag and not the regular 48ct, but as I mentioned, will order foods for you.
They have a loyalty program so after you spend $ 250, you’ll get a discount on your next purchase. Another selling point as Pete L. mentioned is their charitable donations to pet rescues.
I’m sold.

A great store! Everything they carry is high quality. A great variety of healthy choices for cats and dogs. My dogs love going there and the cats love the food, especially the Weruva. Almost anything else you could need, a variety of dog and cat beds, collars, leashes and toys. If they don’t have it, they’ll offer to order it for you. Everyone there is so friendly. They even have foster cats in the store that a local rescue group has rescued.

The place is much smaller than a petco, but the staff is friendly, it’s convieniently locate in DC and they give part of their profits to support a local pet rescue org.
