Natural Pet Essentials is a hidden treasure. My senior chihuahua, Bruno needed surgery for a punctured trachea and esophagus from a traumatic dog attack. After two weeks of eating only baby food the vet suggested we slowly try to transition to real food again to keep scar tissue from taking over. A friend referred me to NPE so I made the 45 min drive from where I live with my little guy riding shotgun. The store is beautiful, has everything you need for your fur babies and is totally dog friendly! Kim greeted us and after telling her what the past two had been like, she suggested samples to see what he would like best. Since I dont travel to that side of town very often I decided to go ahead and purchase a bag. She brought us over to her top choices of small bites he could hopefully swallow and, she reviewed ingredients and flavors with me till I made a decision. Kim also told me if it didnt go as planned I could get a refund and try something else. As soon as I got home I poured him a little bowl of what we chose, soaked it a few minutes in water and, HE LOVED IT and scarfed it down! Hopefully over the next few weeks he will be eating regular dry kibble again thanks to Kims great knowledge of everything she sells and stands by. We will be regular customers now, the drive seems like nothing when you have somebody who cares as much for your babies as you do. Only the best for the best. THANKYOU KIM!

Kim saved my dogs life! Well, perhaps not literally, but certainly in sentiment. Most recently, I was complaining to her about my dogs lethargy, and she recalled that hed had Lyme disease two years ago, and suggested I get him re-tested for Lyme. I just received a confirmation call from my vet - he has Lyme. In prior times with this same dog, Kim suggested a variety of nutrition and diet alternatives to help ease my dogs intolerance of food. Thanks to her guidance, we found a food that he tolerates, loves, and is thriving on that is also within our budget range. She also was able to recommend some accessories that have been healthy upgrades for my dog - a bowl to stop him from eating too quickly, a perfect-length lasso lead for comfortable and secure walks, and a treat ball he loves. Her expertise with all things dog - and cat! she helped me with my cats diets as well, and theyre so healthy and shiny - is valuable to me, and I shop nowhere else for my pets needs. I recommend Natural Pet Essentials for your pets needs, too.

Words cannot explain how amazing this store is. The store owner, Kim, is experienced in the field and extremely knowledegeable about all things nutrition. She can make recommendations about what foods to feed and supplements to give any pet with almost any condition or special need. The store is clean, well organized, and has 2 adorable bulldog store greeters. You cant go wrong supporting this local business.

Definitely the best place to buy pet food and supplies in Charlottesville. There is a huge selection to choose from and the resident bulldogs are always ready to greet you! The owner (Kim) has widespread knowledge of all facets of pet care, and provides excellent personal customer service. Try getting that at a big box store! Do yourself and your community a favor and shop local at Natural Pet Essentials.

Wonderful little pet store with a nice variety of supplies and food. The owner is super friendly and knowledgeable! We came in looking for a flea spray and she was very helpful. Her aborable bulldog was also there and he made the visit even better!

Great place for pet food and treats. Kim is very knowledgeable and helpful. She knows her products very well. She organizes fun events for her customers and raises money and donates food to charities.

I wish this is what all pet stores were like - they believe in a healthier, happier dog, and are selective about the products they sell. Stellar customer service. Please support this local business!

I like little independent stores like this. I saw the store owner made a huge food donation to a local shelter as well. Big heart.
