The best pet shops in Singapore

While it is stocked up on canine and feline products, Pets’ Gantry is said to specialise more in the realm of hamsters, Guinea pigs, rabbits and chinchillas. Customers have commented that the owners are very knowledgeable about rodents – useful for those looking for a smaller pet companion. Sale of pets is available and buyers are screened to ensure they fit the bill of responsible pet owners before purchase. It offers grooming services for small pets too. 

Described to be the Mustafa Shopping Centre for pet supplies (sans the 24hrs part), Polypet has been a one-stop destination for Westside pet owners since its inception in 2004. Catered to the needs of cats, dogs, critters and fish, pet products are wide in their range and set at fair prices with the occasional discounts. However, the store has seemingly garnered glowing reviews thanks to its on-duty staff that many have commented to be courteous, helpful, and knowledgeable.

It’s hard not to miss the massive signage of Benji Pet Kennel when you commute along Still Road. Taking up two store fronts, the pet store provides ample space for not only its exhaustive range of pet products, but also for owners and their canine companion to roam the establishment in peace. Look out for attractive discounts and promotions that take place from time to time at the animal abode! Grooming services for your pets are also available at the store.

Besides offering everything you need to keep a dog healthy and happy, Wellfond Pets is your best bet to purchase a furry family member that complements your lifestyle. As it is active on social media platforms, the pet shop frequently keeps patrons up to date on the pooches available for sale. Feedback from past buyers is generally favourable, pointing to the dogs’ good health and well-being, alongside the staff’s top-notch customer service. The pet shop has two outlets in Katong and Thomson. 

Located along the popular Serangoon’s pet walk, Pet Mart is one of the destinations you’ll find many pet owners make a stop at. Priced affordably, pet supplies are as diverse as they are extensive. The variety also includes the building blocks to construct marine aquariums and habitats for the more exotic pets such as frogs and hermit crabs.

The pet supplies at the six Pets’ Station outlets are arguably the most affordable in Singapore. From dry food and vitamins to a feline scratching post and cages for rodents, pet supplies are exhaustive in their range, and that includes travel accessories such as pet strollers and even grooming aids like hair dryers and a professional groomer’s table. No Pets’ Station near you? Fret not as you can shop online via the brand’s e-store. 

With 65 outlets sprawled across Singapore, Pet Lovers Centre is kind of like the 7-Eleven of pet shops — you may possibly find one around every corner! And just like the convenience store, the animal chain comes fully stocked with every pet-related supply a pet owner would need, from holistic canine kibbles and gourmet feline wet food to anti-flea and tick shampoo and nutritional supplements. Selected outlets also offer grooming services to keep your furkid always camera-ready. 

While commonly misunderstood as a ‘beginning pet’, a hamster requires extensive care to live a thriving life. Pet Fables is one of few pet shops in Singapore that specialises in these furry rodents. Located in the quiet neighbourhood of Eng Kong, the shop is well-stocked with hamster-safe supplies, from German seed mixes and naturalistic bedding to various wheels and hideouts to keep a hamster happy and stimulated. Pet Fables is also a go-to for its acrylic cages, which can be customised to a pawrent’s preference.

A Decathlon for all your pet needs? Singapore has that with Pet Master Mega Store! Covering six retail outlets’ worth of square feet, this pet paradise leaves no animal companion behind with an extensive range of 25,000 pet products from over 500 brands. The store also prides itself as a lifestyle concept that includes a DIY grooming dog station and a pet water playground. The best part of Pet Master Mega Store is its location at East Coast Park, perfect for pawrents and furkids to indulge in both outdoor fun and retail therapy. 

It’s true — being a crazy cat lady is now cool. So wear the title on your sleeve and head to Neko Neko to spoil your feline children silly. While boasting a wide range of cat products such as enrichments and grooming accessories, the cat-speciality store is known for its careful curation of food offerings that is not only nutritious, but also extensive in flavours and textures. You can shop in-person at Neko Neko’s two outlets located in Serangoon Gardens and Jalan Kayu, or skip the hassle by ordering online at nekojam.com. 

Rest assured, you won’t find any nasties, subpar ingredients, or low-quality materials in the products at Vanillapup. Its founders vouch that each product passes through a strict approval process before they are put on sale. Aside from periodic pop-ups, Vanillapup largely operates online. That being said, the e-store’s user experience is unlike other pet sites. One standout is each canine-related medical concern, such as itchy skin, immunity, eye and vision, just to name a few, has its own category for dog parents to shop at the root of the problem.
