Dexter's Deli - North Park - San Diego, California

Kytka

Dexter’s Deli in North Park is hands down one of the best pet stores I’ve ever been to! From high-quality natural pet food to unique toys and holistic pet care products, they have everything you could possibly need to keep your furry friend happy and healthy. The selection is amazing, and you can tell they truly care about the well-being of pets.

What really sets them apart is their knowledgeable and friendly staff—they always go above and beyond to help with recommendations, whether it’s finding the perfect treat or discussing nutrition. I also love that they support local brands and offer plenty of healthy, raw, and organic options that you don’t find at big-box pet stores.

Amazing and helpful staff. After my dog was diagnosed with certain food allergies, an employee went out of their way to not only show me what my dog can eat but also give me enough samples of many items to test and see what my dog would like. Since then, I have only been buying specialty dog food here. Thank you for everything.

This place was clean as heck! Parking was adequate, as I had no issues. Staff was welcoming from the time we stepped in. The lady that helped us was friendly, professional and knowledable. I explained to her that my foster baby was celebrating her 3 month fosteriversary and I didn't know her history. She took her time to explain what her breed might be allergic to. All in all, we had a great experience, and we got a 1 on 1 experience...and she even laughed when my baby tried to steal some treats. For the record, we paid for everything and my baby shared with her fur sister. I gotta say...those cupcakes must be the best thing since sliced bread because they both devoured theirs.☺️🐾

Love this place! I have been in quite a few times and Stephanie has always been so helpful. Not only is she extremely knowledgeable about products but she is so sweet to my pup. She goes above and beyond to make sure I find what is right for my senior dog and gives my girl the ultimate princess treatment with treats and lots of pets. Everything she has recommended has worked out perfectly for my dogs needs and my dog absolutely loves seeing her!

I’ve gone to Dexter’s Deli for two years now and I love my experience each time! The only thing “bad” I can think of is the parking situation (spaces are so tiny and hard to maneuver around) but this has nothing to do with the store haha. I’ve gotten my dog a birthday cake, a birthday cupcake, and some birthday hats before. They’re able to write something on the cakes which is awesome.

In my most recent visit, I bought a bag of peanut butter and beef balls to put into a toy but when I got home, I noticed they were all smushed inside. I called them the same day and the lady that I was talking to was so understanding, helpful, and kind! I came back the same week and they exchanged my bag.

I will continue to come to Dexter’s Deli!

The staff it's always different, but everyone been really nice with me and my dog. I been there more than once, I tried the frozen food, my dog liked a lot, but I'm not really sure about it.
One day they have a promo, doesn't matter how much you spend you get a plate with your dog's name for free..., in another time the lady there open a treat bag just to be sure my dog gonna like it and then give me a new unopened one!!

Great store with unique brands and selections. First time our furry family member accepted a treat from a store owner while shopping. The treat was so good, we purchased a bag. Looking forward to getting more treats when we run out.
