About Us
Welcome to Town Gardens & City Pets — your local, independent pet shop at the heart of the community. We’re a family-run business with a passion for animals, plants, and people. Whether you’re popping in for your usual supplies or looking for something special, we’re here to help with friendly service and expert advice.

The store has been under the same owner since 2009, before then the parents, one of whom still works in the store were the owners from early 2000’s. The store has inherited its name since the store was first opened in 1984. Many people still today tell us of their childhood pet being purchased from this store, it truly warms our hearts. 

As for today, not only will you find all your local favourites on our shelves, but we also offer a range of on-demand purchase specials, including Frozen & Live foods for reptiles, large hutches and cages, brand new aquariums to order, and even seasonal garden items. We carefully select our stock with animal welfare and customer convenience in mind — if you don’t see what you’re after, just ask!

Our team brings decades of experience in pet care, breeding, and retail, with services like water testing, bird boarding, DNA testing, and grooming all under one roof. We believe in doing things properly — with knowledge, kindness, and a genuine love for animals. Come and say hello — we’d love to welcome you in-store.

We have two in-store cats
Don’t worry if you want to bring your dog into the store, let us know at the door we can remove the cats from the retail area. 
Most of the time you’ll find Daisy and Oscar on the counter asking for treats or trying to trick their way to a second breakfast, they are always ready for a fuss and love the attention they get from everyone. See them in our store tour video
