Sierra Fish & Pets

"The staff was nice and helpful, great selection of fish, although the rabbit enclosure was filled w urine and feces and stunk BAD, we avoided that side of the store altogether because the reptiles were also very unkempt, meaning no fresh water it was slimy and green,very small dirty cages and reptiles seemed very agitated to say the least. The fish side was great though."

"I have been shopping at Sierra Fish & Pets for at least ten years. I went there today to buy crickets around 3:30 pm, which I purchase there about once a week. There is normally a friendly young person to help me but today there was no one to be seen. The store owner ???refused to call someone to help me. Instead, he rudely told me that there was no one available to help me so I would just have to wait until he was available. He helped several other customers on both registers with large orders before he finally got to me. I had to wait for 10 to 15 minutes; I felt like he was intentionally making me wait just because I had asked him if there was someone else who could help me. I have NEVER been show so much disrespect. Hope that isn’t how he treats other regular customers!"

"Super nice people, great selection of a nice variety of pets, pets products and beautiful displays. Gizmo was a plus!"

"Good quality fish. However when I came in to buy a hamster, the old lady that works there asked what my age was and I told her I was 18 at the time. She said she was asking cause they couldn't sell the pets to minors and I was okay with that question... but then she proceeded to ask me if I lived with my parents which was none of her business and was a question about my personal life... Refused to sell me the hamster that I wanted because I told her I lived with my parents. The hamsters were showing every sign of stress from the wheels being too small, to the lack of space, and no sand bath which is a terrible example to potential hamster owners. Fortunately this kid said he would ring me up and I saved this hamster....I eventually Came back in after doing more research for some sand because hamsters need sand to bathe themselves. The same lady tried to sell me chinchilla sand which can kill a hamster cause the fine sand gets in their lungs causing respiratory infection. They have great fish. However I do not recommend buying small mammals from here due to the lack of knowledge they have on them. Please do your research before you purchase a small pet from anywhere because they also lied to me about the hamsters age. The guys that work there are super friendly and honest. Great customer service from everyone except her."

"Being pretty new to fish keeping, I visited Sierra several times over the past month with nothing but questions about tank cycling, fish compatibility, substrate, water chemistry…you name it. I found the staff incredibly helpful and patient in answering all of my questions. Everyone I spoke with was great but Alyssa was especially knowledgeable in helping me choose the right fish for my tank setup. No, you won’t find perfectly stocked and squared-off products on the shelves or polished floors. But it’s the slightly disorderly charm of the store that makes this place great. This is the sort of ma and pa shop full of experts and animal lovers that you are glad exists so you aren’t forced to shop solely at the Petcos of the world. Their selection of fish, plants, decorations and equipment FAR outweighs the box stores anyway. Do yourself a favor and stop by."
