  • "Best raw food store around"

    "Some surprising bad customer service at this store today when I asked my husband to pick up our dog food, and for some reason our purchase history was not on file(when I was in in October purchasing two large bags of raw as directed by our Copetown vet clinic, I carefully inputted our rescue pup’s name, and owner info)Today I phoned into the store directly to clarify our info and was met with rudeness and a suggestion that I had the wrong store! When my husband returned again later to pick up the food, he was met with the same rudeness when asking a question about a bag from the back"

    "Domestic Carnivore Rocks it! What I love most about them other than their knowledge about raw food is that they really want your dog to thrive"

    "We’ve been using Domestic Carnivore since their inception and have always been amazed by their knowledge, passion, and desire to ensure customer satisfaction! When our puppy was picky with his food, they provided extra attention to help us experiment with different protein sources, formulations, and packaging options until we were able to find the perfect solution! You won’t find that type of customer service anywhere else! I only trust Domestic Carnivore when it comes to our dog’s food, treats, and consumables!"

    "If your interested in switching your fur babies to a high quality raw food diet this is your place! If you don’t know where to start their staff are extremely helpful - they walked me thru each brand, pros and cons ect"

Best raw food store around. They were extremely helpful when switching my dog to raw after a bad experience at another raw food store. The prices are the best around, and the shop is always very clean. I buy Tollden Farms Botanical formula and it has changed my dog for the better. The bulk treats like rabbit ears and feet which very few stores sell are the best prices I have ever seen. They offer some unique products and meats and their raw meat bones are also very well priced. We have never had a bad experience and the owners are very friendly and knowledgeable about raw. They kindly answer all our questions and have a great points system to save some money. We have been to five provinces and this is the best raw dog food store we have been to.

I had hoped to shop here for many years but will be taking my business elsewhere.

Domestic Carnivore Rocks it! What I love most about them other than their knowledge about raw food is that they really want your dog to thrive. The staff are well trained and super friendly and I feel so at home when I stop in for my dog's food. Whether you are just starting out the raw journey or a seasoned raw feeder I recommend the Domestic Carnivore . Lauren and Gord the owners started this business for their love of dogs and it shows . Great small local business worth supporting!! My dog Blue loves his raw and the Domestic Carnivore

If your interested in switching your fur babies to a high quality raw food diet this is your place! If you don’t know where to start their staff are extremely helpful - they walked me thru each brand, pros and cons ect. They have an awesome points program to earn money off your pets food and the treat section is pretty wicked as well we used to travel to Dundas to shop and now they’re even closer to home - well done Domestic Carnivore!

  • Reena Mendoza

Visited on the weekend and met Kelsey, who was extremely knowledgeable and courteous. I had plenty of questions being new to raw dog food and she took the time with patience to put me at ease with my questions and concerns. I made the switch the next day and returned to purchase my first bag and met Lauren, the store owner who was amazing! Glad I happen to walk in and now my dog is thriving. Thanks Lauren and Kelsey!

  • Shauna Gould

Absolutely cannot say enough good things about Domestic Carnivore, when I say they care like family I mean it. Ares loves the staff here and we look forward to the visits a couple times a month come time to get our boys food. Pricing is immaculate, and the staff is beyond knowledgeable and helpful. They helped us keep our boy fed with healthy recommendations and more so as he's grown. Thank you Domest Carnivore

  • Barb V

We have been feeding our dogs raw from domestic carnivore for over 7 years now. Our dogs have soft healthy coats and no other health problems sometimes associated with diet. Lauren has listened and helped me so many times, way more invested in my pets than any other business owners. Both Lauren and Gord truly care about your pets. I would highly recommend the raw diet and Domestic Carnivore. ❤️Jack & Ruby❤️

  • anne roach

Best staff ever, they know their stuff. Chip is always sooo excited to see them. They were especially kind to me during my recovery and had trouble walking. They brought Chips food right to my car. Talk about service. I have recommended them to several of my friends and they are all impressed as well. My dog is healthier than any dog I have ever had. Keep up the exceptional work. Thank you

  • Sara P-J

Lauren and her staff go above and beyond to make sure what you are buying will work for your pet and your family. I have a very picky standard poodle with an extremely sensitive stomach and with the help of Domestic Carnivore we have found food that he loves and that doesn’t flare up his stomach issues! I feel so lucky to have this amazing small business in my community!

  • Elizabeth Marsh

Domestic Carnivore changed our dogs' lives. Lauren has helped us find healthy food our dogs love that has resolved health issues they both were facing previously. It's wonderful to know we can trust the products and their valuable expertise. We've been loyal customers since they opened. Our vet refers pets with food issues to Lauren for good reason. Recommended highly.

  • Agnes Lewis

Knowledgeable owners, amazing products Lauren is incredible. Her team is super friendly, and always welcoming. We have been getting our dogs food there for years now and wouldn't go anywhere else. Lauren once told me, she wouldn't bring anything into the store that she wouldn't use/give to her dog, that sold me. She treats everyone like family and that's important!

  • Stephanie Spicer

The owners and staff are very helpful and very knowledgeable! The odd time we bring our dogs with us, the staff make them feel so special. Whenever we have noticed issues we think may be related to food, we can always run things by the owners and staff to get their expert opinion. They have given us samples before, too. We love Domestic Carnivore!

  • Krista Travers

Lauren and her team go pawsitively above and beyond when it comes to helping you with your dog's nutrition needs. It all begins with a sample no obligation pack that you can take home and try with your dog if they're switching to raw. They helped make the transition seamless, and it's been two years going on strong with my raw-thrivin' boy.

  • Mellissa McDonald

They were super helpful getting us started with transitioning our Dalmatian to raw even though they didn't have the right options for pre made meals for our pup. They were knowledgeable about the limitations with our breed and had a scale on site to help us plan for his food needs and track his weight as we are transitioning.

  • Arek Rzadkowski

Lauren and the team here are absolutely awesome. Fantastic customer service and answer all of your raw food questions, no matter how crazy they are! Ever since switching to raw and shopping at Domestic Carnivore, Dukes energy and health have drastically improved. Can’t thank the team enough for all your advice!

  • Jennifer Morrow

I highly recommend shopping at Domestic Carnivore! Lauren is a phenomenal person, not only very knowledgeable but cares about her customers! She volunteered endless hours of her time as well as treats & products to help search for my families dog when she went missing. Outstanding service and pet shop!

  • Leesa M

Caring and knowledgeable staff! Lauren is fantastic and gets to know her clientele and their dogs so well. My three love coming to the store to see her and she treats them like her own. No question is silly and she will make sure that you are doing what's best for your pets! Highly recommended!!

  • Christopher Sweet

These folks are amazing. They’re friendly, knowledgeable, and stock everything we need for our many dogs. We go maybe once a month and they always remember our names and what food we prefer. If you’re going to feed your dog a raw diet, or if you’re considering it, check these fine people out.

  • James Stephenson

Love the service here!! Everytime I order ahead, my dog food order is ready to go. My dog has been on raw food for six years and this is by far his favourite. He shines like hair in a shampoo commercial!! Very good quality meats for my pup that look almost as good as for humans.

  • Marian Vanderbuble

I shop at Domestic Carnivore frequently and purchase products for both my dog and 2 cats. This business is exceptional. The gals in store go out of their way to make me and my dog feel welcome, and they do their utmost to ensure the health of my pets. Highly recommend!

  • David Bouchard

While visiting my family in Hamilton, they took me to Domestic Carnivore? The staff and the products/prices were amazing! The options for both dogs and for cats was outstanding! I came back to BC and looked for something similar. No luck! Ontario, you are so lucky!

  • Alex Hilton

Staff are very friendly and helpful. Raw food selection is extensive. We found raw rabbit for our Sons cat, prices not bad for the quality. Several options in raw available, along with various sizes. Parking lot is very busy with the medical facility in the plaza.
